Spring better get here real soon. :interesting: It was cold at the park today. :frozen: It wasn't bad at first, but then the cold wind picked up and it was all over. lol I cried uncle after three hours and two silver dimes. I did hit another site on my way home and detected for another hour before moving on. I picked up several clad coins and a silver ring there.

I scratched the 1923 merc. :-\ Trashy sites can be hazardous to coins when the trowel plows in. :blackeye: Bad digging. :beatdeadhorse: I will have to make up for it. :cheesysmile:

The 1945 mercury dime sneaks a peek through the soil.

2 by 2. It's like Noah's ark lol Glad you got some silver, but we may have to count them silver rings as coins soon. lol This cold weather stinks for detecting :ticked: Hard to concentrate when you are shivering ;) Real nice looking ring. Looks ancient to me lol Just kidding :embarrassed: Is it Amber color or orange like Carnelian?? It's a keeper for sure. I bet your ring collection this year is spectacular :shocked04:

lol I could also count all the wartime silver nickels I found this year. :cheesysmile: That should bring me over the top. lol

The stone on the ring is an orange color. I need a new display case to hold the rest of the silver rings I found this year. lol



Nice digs Angel! And yes, it was a cold weekend. :sick:


It didn't help that it was windy here too. :huh: It was bone-chlling out there. :shocked01:
