Default Old Home Sites !!!

I went to this OLD home site this morning and dispite the heat detected around the clothes line with my Spectrum XLT and got a very faint signal that I ALMOST past up !!! Anyway at about 9" and a VERY faint signal I dug up a pair of very old round glasses frames with the lenes still in them !!! A little bent up but after all that digging I found my relic for the day !!! HAPPY HUNTING ! KENNETH

Default Glasses Frams ?

The ear pieces on the fram were pretty rusted so I know they arent gold because gold dont rust . I think I will break out my silver cleaner and see if they are silver !!! The ear pieces are pretty fragile but I am gonna give it a try !! The VDI bounced all over from + 60s to + 70s !!! Maybe copper ? I DUN NO !!!!! HAPPY HUNTING ! KENNETH
