I was detecting the tree line in a small park where I found some American silver and wheat cents a few weeks ago and got a strange signal. Almost did not dig it. Down about 6? I found a cool whip type container and thought is was someone?s left over lunch. Opened it, inside was a plastic bag and inside that bag another plastic bag. I freaked when I saw all the jewelry but put it in my pouch and continued detecting. About 10 minutes later curiosity was killing me so I went home to roll in my riches. I dumped out the jewels and realized I was not rich. Looks like some kind of time capsule placed in the ground by some girlies. Most of the earrings are cheap but there were a few pieces of silver mixed in. Pictures are not great and do not click to enlarge, I am looking for a new server as this is getting a little obnoxious but can?t complain as it is a free server. Here?s the cache.
Amazing the contents did not get wet, even the Panda card is in nice condition.
Looks like the cache might date to 1997 placed in the ground at 09:00. The dime is dated 1997.
Only four pieces of silver but still an awesome find. HH, Mike
