Got out for a nice long hunt this evening and did quite well. I was in an open lot where a house that was built in the 1920's once stood. My church is getting ready to convert the lot into a parking lot so I'm getting to it before the dirt work starts then I'll go over it again after some dirt is moved.

I dug a good assortment of finds including 3 rings. One of them .925 and the other two were junkers. I also dug a George Washington memorial token and a Pontiac token. I really like tokens and didn't have either one of these yet. I need to clean the tokens. $1.67 in clad and a few other items made it into my finds pouch as well.

Looks as though you had a very successful day hunting. Very nice results swkdigger! Those church yards dating back so many years never fail to amaze me with great finds.
