Dec 31st, last hunt of the year and I got another first today for me!

Went back to the "Silver Mine" Park this afternoon and pulled a 5hr hunt. Got another first find for me. A find alot of you consider trivial, but still I've never found one. Enough yakking, on with the photos.

Find Totals. 1 toonie, 1 loonie, 3 quarters, 1 dime, 2 nickels, 38 pennies total. Other finds follow in pics.

Some kind of shiny tin? ball, with holes at either end. Any ideas?

Brass ring?

Piece of junk bling chain with hasp. Nothing else in hole but a piece of iron at 8" deep.

Old, flat copper braided wire ring.

Immaculate 1952 George VI Penny.

And my first Indian Head Penny, in Canada no less. Not the best shape, but I've seen far worse ones. 1904....oldest coin from this park now, beats the 1908 "V" Nickel. Five more years to jump the century mark....soooo close.

Anyway, that was my day. HAPPY NEW YEARS!! GL & HH ALL!!

Great finds! Looks like that spherical piece might be a large bead from an old necklace costume jewelry.

They are all good finds. Are you sure the chain is not silver?

Yep. It's cheap aluminum.

Injuns are always nice, congrats!

I think John is right, a costume jewelry bead.
