Here's a dandy find
While
testing the new Teknetics Omega 8000 detector for First Texas Products
I found this nice 14k bracelet. I am very impressed
with the Omega 8000 as I found a bunch of coins as well.
All tests indicate that the 8000 detector is highly productive.
Thanks David Johnson for opportunity to test the Omega 8000.

While hunting around 7000 feet in the Prescott Forest I found
these 2 iron objects. Hope these turn out to be a possible
new find. |

Prescott Chinese Coin
While hunting a City Park I found this Qing Dynasty coin.
It would appear from research to be between 1600 - 1800 vintage. |

Franconia 5 day trip
Jim Smerglia & I made a 5 day trip to Franconia where
we met up with Larry Sloan, Todd Parker, Tim Glidewell &
evening guests Denny Asher & his wife Patti.
We had one fantastic time & were treated to great comet viewing
thanks to Jim and his astro binoculers.
See more pics of the Franconia trip. |

Civil War era Button
Found this button in Chloride on Dec 5, 2008.
I have looked through the internet & cannot find
anything that resembles this one.
It appears to be a Federal Button.
If anyone has an idea, please contact me. |

I found this magnet a mile + from any wagon trail or road.
We are not the only ones carrying around magnets.

This may be 100 + years old. |

I said this before
& I'll say it again.
You never know what you will come across in the desert.
Came across an old wagon trail on my meteorite mission.
One of items found was this very old & crude ring.
A friend of mine looped it & suggested it might be a map.
Could this be the next National Treasure map???

I love my White's V/Sat
Thank you Jimmy Sierra for the excellent

The geology will never
cease to amaze me.
Heavy stone, very magnetic on the iron portions.
The host rock is non-descript & I think you can see the shine
of the window in this specimen. Does anyone have a clue??? |

Chloride Area 5/29/08
Guess I have started a
collection of shot shells.
A little research has put a few of these in the 1860's.
I guess maybe a new hobby starts here. |
