Here I am with my friend and colleague, John, metal detecting for those elusive treasures. It was a beautiful day at the Anderson Fair Ground where we did some coin shooting. I found $1.59 but I think John found a little bit more. However, the highlight of the day for me was finding this Deputy Sheriff Shasta County Badge and this Bronze California National Guard Excellence Medallion. Both pieces were buried about 4 inches under the grass & dirt. The back of the Badge says its 3K gold. The Medallion has embossed on the back "For your contribution and support in response to SEPTEMBER 11, 2001". All in all it was a good day for John and me.
