Spring has sprung.....the ice is breaking up in the North Saskatchewan River and there are only a few snow patches left in the woods. A great day for a hunt. The temp. got up to a sweaty 62.6 F/17 C. I needed a shower awfully bad after I got home.
I was working some trails, when I came upon a hole, filled with rocks and sand. My coil ran over it, and I got a signal VDI reading in the 80's. I dug a penny, then I still kept getting signals until i cleaned it out. I was surprised to get 24 coins with a value of $2.12 out of it. What a strange occurance. Maybe there's a guy buried down there.
I knew I was in an old picnic area because of all the trash buried and this old spoon. I am always up to a challenge of creating something out of some of the junk I dig, so after my photo session, I created another spoon ring, as shown below:
After a little elbow grease and polishing, a nice shiny ring appeared from under all that brown oxidation.
