Had 45 min to hunt before picking my son up from school. No where to go save for the local park, it’s been a ho-hum park, no good finds and not many finds either. Detected there many times with lack luster results. But, not many places to go so decided better to swing 45 minutes over the grass ball field than to not swing at all.
Sure am glad I did go! Found the 1921 silver (75%) 10 Centavos Filipinas/US coin first. Wasn’t sure what the heck it was when I pulled it out of the dirt but then could tell it was silver and small! Pretty cool. My oldest coin now! First silver coin in a long long long long long long time.
Shortly after gold in the hole! Dang, couldn’t believe it. Been awhile since I pulled gold out of the dirt.
4.6 grams of 14k. My first 14k of the year, my other 4 golds have been 10k for some reason! Unfortunately got nailed by a mower before going under, I tried to straighten it out and it came apart at a solder joint a bit. Interesting marks as it is stamped in two places 14k and the hallmark looks like a G(heart)L.
Pretty dang cool!
Happy hunting folks!
