Still nothing great- but wanted to share!

Hi gang,
I thought I share my finding from a local park in RI. I didn't find much but I have only covered about 1/10 of it so lots of area to go. Plus I had six kids hanging out with me for about 2 hours. I was surprised 2 of the six kids stayed and helped dig. There were 3 15 years old boys an 3 14/15 year old girls. I was happy they were interested in something other than typical teenager things. I let one of the girls keep a 1945 nickel she found - she was so excited. I need a new camera too. I got this one for christmas as a gift and I couldn't hurt anyones feelings. Any suggestions?

Couple good pennies, fishing lures, looks like an old barett and some other ite I can't identify.

Nice! What is the big round copper looking thing?

KellyV · May 12, 2008

Copper

Not sure I think it is just a cover to somthing I haven't cleaned it yet so it has not hit the junk pile. But there is slight indentation on it so I don't think it is anything old. On the left of the colored lure I think it is an old piece of a boyscout pin it has abird on it with a GI or G1 on the backside. The bird is official looking.
I am pshyched though. From the forum I looked through all those state treasure links you send out and I just got permission to hunt on Roger Williams park in Ri. I plan on going after work Wednesday or this weekend.
Thank you,
Kelly

That is one of the oldest parks in the state. You should find a lot of interesting stuff. Good Luck. :yes:

Hey Kelly, a few finds are better than no finds. At least you were able to get out and have a good time.

I am glad you took the time to show your helpers about detecting. Hope they take up the hobby also. Great finds and keep at it. Jim

Thank you all for the enthusiasm! I love this site it is like my new extended family as my friends usually laugh at me and tell me all I need is a pair of blue blockers to top off the outfit

I plan on visiting it again this week as it is only 10 minutes away!
