Sometimes The Neatest Finds Are Eyeballed, Not Found Under The Coil :smoke:

[John-Edmonton]

My buddy and I got out today for a whole day of detecting. We got to hit 4 different spots. While hunting beside a river, I eyeballed some pieces of petrified wood, and while climbing a hill, I also eyeballed this old pop bottle too. They were all keepers.

Luckily I brought my camera along. There were all kinds of mushrooms growing in the woods, fields, trails and on stumps. Here are some pics of the mushrooms.

The coins were many. At an old turn of the century house, I found a pile of pennies (no old though) in a shack which was still standing. There were crack pipes in there, old clothes and a sleeping bag.

Here are the best of the best.......found with the AT Gold. It's always nice to get a couple of silvers and older pennies.

What would a hunt be without some bling......My buddy got what appears to be a gold cufflink. A great find for sure. We put in a 10 hour day.......man were we tired!

Sounds like a great day and sharing it with a friend makes it even better. Nice finds, John.

While my wife and I were walking through a casino, we spied $200 on the floor. The players who saw me pick it up were so mesmerized by the machines they just glanced at me and continued to play.

Found my first gold just by eyeballing it. But I was bent over recovering a penny when I spotted it. Turned out to be a 10k gold bracelet. Then my 2nd gold came in the form of a 10k ring with 6 diamonds and a large amethyst stone on it. I eyeballed that just before my coil swept over it. The bracelet registered a 40 on the AT PRO, and the ring was a 47. I showed the two pieces to the dear wife and havent seen the ring since, except on her finger! Needless to say, she likes me out detecting.

The things you eye balled are great and the pictures of the mushrooms are cool. But, I would have walked right by the pop bottle. Maybe it is just my perspective, but 1964 seems like yesterday.
