The good, the bad and the old...

[jkress]

I was itching all day to get out and find some goodies... so tonight I got home and grabbed the detector and headed out while there was still some sun left.

I went back to the place I found the Barber quarter and dime on Monday.

No silver this time, but I found a couple of goodies.

The Good -

The Bad - (Why do junk rings always come out of the ground diamonds first?) :bangahead01:
