An epic Tuesday afternoon at the Fairgrounds! When I arrived there was several people already hunting. I believe Josh had the only Silver with a Mercury Dime. I hunted for quite a while, and I absolutely couldn't even find a Penny. I ended up getting a great Silver range signal on the CTX 3030..... it was a bit bouncy, but kept coming back to silver. The problem was that the sizing was wrong, and the machine wasn't seeing a round object...... But it kept hitting so sweet!
I realized why at about 6" down in my plug..... A Beautiful Vintage 25.9 Gram Mexican Silver Bracelet!!! This thing is just Amazing!
The CTX also managed to find me a Beautiful Tiny Old Silver Button before the battery died. That little button was the first Silver Button of that type for me. The detail is amazing!
Off to the car to switch the CTX out with the NOX 800.... Right away I dig the Tiny 14K Pin. The front reads - ND '10, and the back is pictured. Unable to locate anything like it on the internet.
Finally got my first coin ~ 1943 S War Nickel!
Dug some clad, and the little aluminum button. Really wasn't sure what the button was, but I now believe it is an old granny style sweater button.
Just as it was getting dark I got a Great Nickel Signal, and dug an 1911 V Nickel!
Josh also found a 48 Penny Spill (too bad they weren't Indians)! All 1979 Pennies, and a broken pill bottle. Someone must had spent two out of the roll before they lost it.
An excellent afternoon hunt!
Thanks for looking, and HAPPY HUNTING! :D

Vey nice finds you have there no doubt. At first I thought the bracelet had old silver coins in it.
 
Those are some awesome finds! That little gold pin is really neat. I love finding unusual stuff like that especially if it's gold!
