LABOR DAY HUNT


I did a quick early morning hunt on Labor day before the day turned hot.  I managed to find 3 wheat pennies and over a dollar in clad.  The ground was very dry and hard - did get some rain yesterday but I don't think enough to soften the ground.  Will be back at again this weekend - rain and cooler temps in the forecast - looking forward to that.

LAST COUPLE OF HUNTS - 1ST EVER CLASS RING



Last Sunday I went to a spot where I've had found silver before - no such luck that day just clad but over 3 bucks worth so not much to write about.
Yesterday T and I set out to find a special place and hopefully if it was a producing we would camp there in the woods -  we did find the spot but it wasn't what we had expected.  T had heard of foundations around this area but if they were there - they were on private land or very well hidden.  So we traveled and hit spots along the way.   I did manage to find my first ever class ring.  I think it 10K - will have to clean it up better to find out.  After that a token, clad and maybe 1 wheat penny - not sure it's pretty toasty.  UPDATE - class ring is 10k gold plated !!!!
