Ace 250 Labor Day Weekend hunt...

Salida

New member
It was a great weekend! Today, Monday was windy
and cool, unlike the first two days in the high 80's
and 90's.

Picked up enough clad to put gas in the tank.

The ring is not silver. It kept bouncing between 1cent and .10 cents on
the display.
It came out of the ground looking black and crusty
like the clad but shined up nicely when I threw it all in the
tumbler. Anyone know what thr ring might be made of?

The Special Olympic disk cleaned up in soap and water.
It came in on the display at .5 and aluminum THEN when I lifted the coil a bit
higher it came in between..10 .25 .50 so I don't really know WHAT the metal is

What kind of metal do you all think it is?

Picked up some nice wheels too.

How you all had a nice weekend!

Don't you dig pennies?

Nice haul:clapping:

My guess is the Special Olympics medal is made of some alloy of copper (brass) (red brass) and the ring is what is referred to as Tibetan Silver ( probably 0% real Ag in it:veryangry:), it's similar to pewter,....copper, tin, nickel alloy and if it came from China there just might be a good dose of lead to boot....so don't eat it.....:rofl:

That car probably (most I find) would have VDI between a penny (80) and a half dollar (90-92) on the AT Pro and REAL loud if it was very shallow.

Those coins sure cleaned up nice!

Don't I did pennies?
Not in public parks and soccer fields because they are almost always zinc junk and eated up.
Sometimes/a lot of times a reading of .10 cents does turn out to be an older penny.

If I were in the country hunting around an old house I be sure to dig anything that said PENNY.

I usually dig everything but in the public parks and ball fields NO. I don't dig anything that says .1 cent because its usually eated up zinc junk but like
I said anywhere else is a different story.
