Had a tremendous evening last night!! Went to an older home I received permission to hunt and cleaned up. Found a 1852 Lg Cent that looks like it was dropped right after coming from a mint roll, spectacular shape <:. This coin alone would have made my evening but after pulling a bunch of newer coinage along with a few wheats sprinkled in I came across a solid nickle signal that registered all green bars stacked up at 18 VDI. I was thinking nickle but was shocked :shocked04: to find a 10k white gold Star Sapphire men's ring starring back at me in my hand, fits my ring finger perfectly too. Not much of a jewelry wearer but this made for a great gold find for me, and is only the 2nd piece of gold I've ever found. Only silver for the night was the religious medallion, which for a moment made me think I had a silver quarter because of its size and shape. Other interesting finds for the night was the polar bear figurine and a cell phone :dontknow:. It's going to be hard to wipe the smile off my face for a while from this hunt. I'm sure I will not have a hunt this good for a long time :dontknow:. Enjoy the pics and good luck hunting this weekend.

What a great Large Cent! Straight from the mint to the ground, I'd say.

Nice other finds too. Wonderful hunt and I'm sure you had a lot of fun.

Regards, Ken
