Default Got The Best Item!
Went camping with Cub Scouts this weekend at a Coast Guard station. Station had campgrounds with a sanded volleyball court and tot lot. Fortunately my detector was still in my car from Tuesday! Did them both and had extra time so I did some dirt with my Fischer tool under some Tiki hut areas and part of a baseball field. The surface of the baseball infield was super hard! I wasn't doing so well there so I only did a small section. Not a bad hunt about 3-4 hours, 64 coins at $4.06. The thing next to "The Best" charm looks like molten metal, maybe some silver solder? I'm not sure but I found it interesting. I had some adults and a lot of kids come up to me. I was a good sport with them and answered there questions.
