Did A Little Hunt In Parry Sound Ontario

[Spanky]

Was in the Parry Sound area and picked up this item. Was using my 550 and was probing between rocks....the little sand pockets between boulders. I was hunting in all metal mode. The item appears to be aluminum...I think? Looks like a medal of some sort.

Those little pockets are honey holes.....found a fair bit of clad as well.

Wow Spany....what a nice piece of history you found. Thanks for posting

Sure it ain't bronze. Is it heavy? Looks like a commemorative coin. Could be worth a buck or two.

You just gave me a dandy idea, using my Sun Ray probe to probe those cracks for goodies. If you're in or on a gold bearing stream you can find gold in those cracks.

Uncle Willy ...its very ...very.... light in weght. I don't have anything to weigh it with so I have no idea of the exact weight. I think it is aluminum because I tried searching the internet and there are other similar commerative items made of alumnium but I've still not found this actual item. Its fun researching the item as well. I like your idea of the probe. Funny I never thought of doing that. There were several spots I could not get the coil in that the probe may have found a thing or two.
