Default Some rescent finds

Still working the old "Base Housing" yards down here in NC, clad coins are coming out by the handsfull... also been finding numerous wheat's (the earliest being 1926) most of the wheat's are from the 40's-50's. Ive also hit a few rings, and silver coins. Overall been having a blast and doing what I love to do..
Below are some pictures of some of the finds...

Gunny, it looks to me like you found "a plate full." The odds are saying that you are very close to a sweet gold ring....keep it up!!!
