Still not finding anything of significance but not a waste of time. Spent 3 hours at our new athletic facility today. Bug spray kept the gnats at bay anyhow.

Finds:
1. Sheffield utility knife, rusted blade still in place. Knife handle is broken so I won't spend time to restore it.
2. 12 gauge shell
3. Magnetic catch of some kind
4. Odd piece of metal. Non-magnetic, not lead, maybe aluminum
5. 2019P dime and 2017P LMC
6. 6" length of wire
7. Usual aluminum cans, foil, etc. (More trash than treasure)

I'm glad I at least found some coins (both were on the surface).

Nope. Could have been better but I at least got out of the house and did some detecting.

Not every hunt yields treasure but it's always fun to get out.

My three hour hunt this week at a new park and wooded area yielded a 1930s "Merry Widow" condom container and a 2000-D Sacagawea dollar. That was my only coin. Not much, but I got out.
