Default Is 10 A Cache? Maybe Diamonds Yeah Right!

Well did an all day hunt today 8 1/2 hours dang my arm is sore. Hunted an old park in a city I had never been in before & ran in to another hunter from my club who yesterday & today got a couple of silver dimes & buffalo nickels & an 1887 silver quarter & all I could find all day was clad, man was I bummed, only found 2 wheaties all day. Also found what I think is a locket that has either small diamonds & or fake glass looking ones on it, can't tell if it's gold or not, so will have a jeweler look at it for me. Found the locket & back to it in the same hole. The only other excitement all day was once I found 10 pennies in one hole, when they say always check the hole they ain't kidding!!! Hope my elbow is not to sore to hunt tomorrow!!!

If you can hunt for 8 hours, you're pretty tough. I used to be able to do that years ago, but limit myself to 3-4 hours now, and only then on good days when the arthritis is behaving. Interesting finds! Looks like you had a good day indeed.

I would have a jeweler check that locket out. Let us know if it is the real thing.
