Out this afternoon for nearly 2 hours.....a bit of a north wind, not too cool and it's a blessing that we have no snow yet. I got a pile of loot, a bullet and a ring. If you don't dig those penny signals, you don't get a lot of silver and copper rings.
here's the best of the hunt. That ring, although a real mess when I found it, cleaned up nicely using my tool, a buffing wheel with some jeweler's rouge.
