Hit up the site where i found the Clemson class ring from 1930 and the sterling locket... Found 7 more wheats, 4 mercs....and my first sterling spoon with a W that is another family heirloom as are the ring and locket.... Same family!

Also, I found my oldest coin ever!!!!!!!!!! Found a King George III penny! Cannot read the date but this is definitely the 1797 version!!!!!! Holy moly! My first 1700s coin!

My town was settled in the mid 1800s. I cannot imagine how this coin got there!

What a great week of hunting!

Not too shabby!

My brother found a silver rosie, merc, and a 1912 barber dime, handful of wheats, 1900 indian head, and a sterling dish with an ornate flower pattern on it (almost an ounce of silver)!
 
Congratulations on some great finds. The KG's are always a welcome sight. Your off to a great start for the year. Good luck.
 
Congrats on all that silver, and a ton of other great stuff! My first 925 spoon is still my best find IMO...

You are killing it, way to go!
