Today my daughter and I were out on some trails and found this (Bottom right corner of the picture):
That there is a 1952 Nickle.

Mind you, no metal detector, these were visual finds

I'm not sure how deep, both of these holes are connected. From what I could see, it went in about eight feet.
A few years back I gave my MD away (To my Uncle). I have been meaning to get a new one... Haven't taken the plunge yet.

It's not to bad, only about 20-50 feet tot he river.
I think the monthly awards might've fallen by the wayside (as has my own diggin' this last year or so), but I'm still around and it's good to see the forum is still goin!
Regardless, it's a really neat lookin' place, as I said before. Thanks for the pix.
BTW, this picture is the sort that would have most mothers gritting their teeth and pulling their hair out from worry, haha.
Oh, and hey- even if there are no old bottles or more coins in there, don't forget who the earliest inhabitants of such a cave might have been. Keep a sharp eye peeled for arrowheads and other projectile points, if you should happen to go there again. A detector won't help you with stone artifacts, naturally, but it looks like you've got that sharp eye already.
