we're on the board !!!

I had to work piecemeal today, my wife had ''stuff to do'' so I was here with my son nearly all day AGAIN, I hit a Jr high down the street for about 35 minutes or so while getting gas for my mower :D, I got home and she split again, when she got home I claimed i needed to go to home depot, so I went to a field where they dumped some demo dirt last year and spread it out, Take was 33 memorial pennies, 2 wheat pennies , two junk rings (one in the field & one at the JR high) and 7 nickels one is a 1946 (I think that is on the cusp but not 5 points??) also found a cool looking broken Sterling fork or spoon the end is broken so I dont know which, and of course enough junk to fill a pants pocket.......Not sure if the spoon is worth points (I dont think so)
also found two junk charms no necklace attached so I think those are worthless points wise also.........the top nickel is 1946 .

^^^^34-7/10 pts^^^^ Great!


That spoon is the best find and its worthless for points, then of course just my luck I find a 46 nickel, it couldnt have been 45 oh no not me :mad::mad::mad: .........Points is points......I know my partner has been hitting a couple spots today too so hopefully he kicks some Azz
 
I went out this morning and decided to go hunting in the woods at a local park. I didn't find too much. Luckily, I found my first chain or bracelet! It was buried about 5" to 6" deep and I pulled it straight out of the ground with my Lesche. I couldn't believe it! I am pretty sure that it is junk jewelry, but it was still a great find. GL and HH

2 Dimes x .25 = .5 points
2 Nickels x .25 = .5 points.
3 Tabs x .25 = .75 points.
1 Junk Chain or Bracelet = 10 points.

Total = 11.75 points

101 degrees , I stayed in the shade trees at vista middle school, I remember why I hate hunting schools, pencil eraser caps, aluminium juice lids , pull tabs ect.....all for a load of pennies and a couple other misc clads, I did score a cool looking junk ring with 3 tiny fake diamonds, it is a serpent or three snakes or some such gaudy looking thing ..But Points are points .....I belive this is 9 points (feel free to corect me if I am wrong) 30 memorials (coppers and zincs) 3 nickels and two measly dimes , and the big 5 point score is the cool junk ring......


9 points (I think)
