Title: First Gold ring and some silver!! Post by: dsinfinite on February 21, 2014, 08:48:48 PM I was at a beach that a lot of people on this forum say they have had bad luck at, I found coins a silver ring and a gold ring and I was quite happy oddly enough there was a 1903 penny on the surface , I guess some of the guys here look in the wrong places

Post by: dsinfinite on February 21, 2014, 11:19:26 PM Metal detecting is like a drug lol I can't wait until i can go out next I just love history and the fact you never know what you will find for instance earlier I found a 1937 penny in my garden and my house was made in the 60s, apparently my house was built on old farm land lol.

It's amazing what you can find in your garden, especially if you do some digging. A couple of Time Team programs had members of the public digging trial pits in their gardens. When you think about it all land has a history, some older than others, but it's there. Oldest thing I found when digging veggie plots was a fossilised fern leaf. It gets to the stage that every little rock has to be checked, just in case. Sad or what. ::) Val Title: Re: First Gold ring and some silver!!
