I didn't find it ,I just shot the video is a lame excuse to argue with .. As if you dont know the guy in the video. Best thing to do is erase the video. But Do as you please . stick up for him .The thrill of the hunt , wondering how it got there, and once in a while seeing the expression on the face of a person when you return their lost Class ring as I did is priceless . Besides this Overall your hunts/videos are top quality.

@edgewater70 I hear you but im not going to erase the video, yes I know it would make for a cool return video but its not my find so I WONT tell somebody else what the have to do with there find. I will video it and share it with everyone though.

I wonder if the wallet was dumped after a robbery or even worse, I would surely try to do some investigating on if the guy who owned the wallet is alive and well. That wallet could be a clue that solves a mystery.

[TreasureFiend]

@crackbadger1 I have no clue as to why it was dumped but it was found right next to a Chicago university so I would think that it was from a pick pocket (since no cash was inside)

[HaloKiller17]

thats no a large thats in the 1980s

[TreasureFiend]

@HaloKiller17 Its an 1oz of .999 silver and larger in size & more silver than in a morgan dollar

[TedTimmis]

The right thing to do is to return the wallet and the silver.

[UGotMalkster]

is that silver coin called a round or a Bullion?

[THEDRAGONBOOSTER8]

MATE WHAT A FIND...I am starting to like these American coins,I will have to start collecting them,buy of ebay I guess , I like the old silver and the Indian heads look great..Well done mate you keep diggin,and I will keep watching..

[voidenter]

looks like you stumbled on a possible murder scene? careful.

my parents tell me that people who go metal detecting are weirdos and they never find anything. i guess they were wrong

[Stillwater900]

@edgewater70 "Best thing to do is erase the video" ??? Why would that be the best thing to do?? Thats a stupid thing to say, and your an idiot for saying it.

[Stillwater900]

@TedTimmis Oh don't be a square. Finders keepers.

[MrDavidKenney]

I started detecting yesterday, 9-17-2011. Enjoyd the vid. Happy Hunting, I found my first coin today. David.

[MultiMike747]

that is like a 1 in a million chance! Nice Find!

[herbert2950]

finders keepers! if you find something it's your decision if you chose to return it,not someone elses. what are you supposed to do start running things back to people every time you find something? that's the beauty of metal detecting,you're the one doing all the work,you deserve to keep whatever you find. i like your attitude treasurefiend,this hobby needs more people like you.

[CoinageBritannia]

The way I see it, it should be treated no differently to any class ring you find. If you are able to find the owner and they want it back. Sure you should return it, but as TreasureFiend said. It isn't his find, so why should he force his friend to do anything with it? I am sure that L4S probably tried to find the owner but was unable to. Anyway The video as usual is great! Well done to you three and keep huntin'!
