Today's track, one of my favorite songs about the war..



The ring is marked made in Israel Silver.. Other ring is gold filled..

I found my third ever tie clip in the water, my second one that's sterling.. A three have come from different places. The first one was a while ago, when I first started, I was surprised to find such an item in the water.. I'm not surprised anymore, I think anything is possible now..

The bucket list.. Some items get added, some get checked off.. Some of the items you can remember where, when, who, caused the bucket list to grow. For example, when I was hunting with Bruinvikes and he found a Civil War token.. I've seen a bunch of guys finding them on here, then he pulled one from a pounded park at 3 inches.. I knew what he found right away, I've always thought they were cool, but at that point it was a bucket lister..

First CW token for me today!

Thanks all!

Thanks everyone!!

Since these tokens replaced coins for the most part during the CW, I'm counting it as my oldest coin for the season...

Good luck to all today!

Ice, back in the 80's Israel made the finest quality of gold and silver Jewelry. When my wife had her wholesale business we would always look for Israel made products. They would often bring a fair price at purchase but a lincreased price on resale. Still love the stuff. congrats on the great finds.

Virtual nothing old where I dig, I actually got into detecting to find relics, I didn't find any so decided to just go with what I was finding.
