Default Weekend dig hunt turns into Archeological dig!

MY weekend trying to find gold was misery. In my fruitless endeavor for the yellow metal i ran all metal.

If your scared say your scared and use discrimination... I Wasnt nerry bit skeered to run all metal.

i found a lil over 3 bux US in clad and a peice of junk jewelry. Plus among all those dead presidents i dug seven dead king.

Yeppp that right 7 dead and buried kings " Bud of the House of Weiser" One of those Bud cans was 13 inches deep and came up as a quarter at 4inches....


oh well... the gold cant elude me for ever

Think I've dug a few from the same royal house, Bill. But, 3 bucks is better than no bucks...and you'll hit gold soon, I'm sure!

I always thought that people threw away far too many beer cans. But looking back and comparing the cans I've found to the number of beers I've drank, it ain't too many, I don't guess.........
