ratman4762 Pillar of the Community United States 2522 Posts	Posted 07/19/2009 6:35 pm Found my old detector when I was rummaging through my shed and decided to try to find a gold wedding band that was lost in my yard about 5 years ago. After finding only 2 copper lincolns when I picked up a signal at the edge of my driveway. After digging down about 8 inches of a hard gravel/dirt mix (and fetching my hatchet out of the shed to chop a large root)I was pleasantly surprised with a 1944 Washington quarter which is probably nicer than the one in my set. Never did find the gold ring though. Report this Post to the Staff
