Yesterday I had to sit myself down and do some of the taxes for the family. I do it for 6 people every year. :crazy:
After struggling through 3 of them I had had enough and headed out.
I had the 17" coil on and the headphones hooked up to the wireless module.
I normally hunt with ear buds but I wanted to see if this made any difference in the tiny squeaky signals.
Not much but they did keep my ears warm though. :rolf:
Any who I get past the trashy area and start to hear soft deep pull tab signals.
Now the area I was working has very few deep signals so I am intrigued by this and dig one.
It turns out to not be very deep after all but only 3 1/2" but it is a very thin old Chinese cash coin.
Start casting about and I end up with a total of 7 of them from an area with about a 10' radius.
The history of the Chinese here is a long one but they were not thought of in the best of ways.
So considering where I found them I believe that some one ruffed up the old guy and he spilled the coins .
Feeling good about the day now I kept going and this sterling ring was the next to jump into the pouch.
I'm not sure what the stone is but it is rough and not polished.
I know that I just said that almost none of the targets here are deep but as always there are exceptions.
This little silver ring was down 7" and it rang in nice and sweet. From the looks of it it has been in the ground for a long time.
I texted this picture to a friend and his reaction was "trade silver"
There are no markings in it what so ever and the band is broken.
Victoria did get it's start as a Hudson's Bay Post so it is possible :dunno: :dunno: :dunno:
