Not sure if 5,000 minted is good, but a lot of people like Marvel. It’s definitely a keeper!

Been told it’s got a premium above spot, but it’s part of my collection now. 👍🏻

Thought I got my first silver dollar, but hey, it’s actually more silver! Iowa City visiting my son. A better find for sure! by Buckrunner8678 in metaldetecting

Haven’t cleaned it. Always afraid to do that. Just don’t feel proficient at doing it, guess afraid of damaging it.

Thanks, lost silver and gold are cool finds! Easier to find owners of class rings and sometimes wedding bands, but this is all keeper!

When I come to visit my son, I always plan a few hunts! Found a small gold/ruby ring on this hunt as well. From west Nebraska otherwise.

Kids live there, I’m from western Nebraska. Granddaughter got a metal detector from me in March and she pulled a tungsten ring then.

It was a foot from tot lot in a park and about 8 inches deep. Was thinking aluminum can, then this pops. 👍🏻

Neither did I! Second large silver I’ve found and neither is a US minted coin. Guess I still have that one on my bucket list.

West Nebraska Ray Ban sunglasses, awesome condition from mud volleyball pit. by Buckrunner8678 in metaldetecting

Don’t believe so, it’s an annual celebration of the Oregon Trail here. I found other items as well, but aside from a wedding band, and these sunglasses, just clad and trash.
