Default Gold Ring,gold Earing,silver & 1911 V-nickel

hi everyone!
after work went over to the park for about 4 hours.worked a area that produced buffalo's and indian head pennies in the past.first signal got my heart pumping for a second it was a little gold ring but it turned out to be a gold colored aluminum kids play ring i dug a 1911 v-nickel,3 wheaties a little clad then the sky opened up with 20 minute down pour.after it cleared up i decided to concentrate around a swimming pool thats in the park.hugged the chain link fence line and it paid off! a sterling earing(broken post).2 gold hoop earings(gotta test em posts are missing)and the last find of the day was a mens 14kt wedding band!so i was happy with todays hunt!
thanks for looking and have a great weekend all!
dave

Looks like a very successful outing. That nickel is in great shape. And there is nothing better than topping off a hunt with GOLD!! Congratulations.
