Default Back to the Demo Site

It was back to the same demo site this morning for a 4 hour hunt. I've been working hard on slowing down and working the iron. Not a lot to show for my effort today. I think I had a $1.13 in change, plus some zincolns that I threw in the trash. The top two pennies are wheats, '58 and '39. I found a couple pieces of old jewelry, one being a broach and the other being a link to a bracelet??? Also found a tiny junk ring and some kind of trinket. Found 3 tokens and some game pieces??? Also got an early rimfire cartridge and a lead ball that could be either a small caliber musketball, early large caliber air rifle shot, or flip (aka-slingshot) ammo. There were some other odds and ends plus junk that is not pictured. I was digging all pull tab signals for a chance at gold. I ended up with 30 or so pull tabs, but no gold.

I was pleased with the ETs ability to pull out some really small items. Should be able to nail some small buttons and cut silver, if I can put the coil over it.

Hope y'all are findin it.

Jarrett

I found a monopoly dog in my front yard, but he's missing his front legs!

Congratulations on the finds. Not a bad outing. The silver and gold WILL show up eventually. It's just a matter of time and luck.
