    Jack Rabbit buttons?

    I've found a number of buttons on a battlefield that have the name Jack Rabbit in raised relief on the button face. Is anyone familar with these buttons? I'm assuming that they are buttons from post war farming bibs or overalls.

    I found these items on 09-29-2017 a Gardner dropped,a threaded cannon fragment and my first button. Unfortunately the button was under a tree root and and in my impatience at getting to it I stabbed it with my Lesche. It is most likely a Confederate button. Can anyone help me IDing the fragment...

    Biggest and smallest rings to date.

    I found these two in the last week. The smallest s a diamond ring 14k that is so small it will not tip my scale. It is approx. 1/2 the size of a pencil in diameter and has a real diamond. The biggie is a ring made out of an 1897 Morgan Silver dollar. It is a size 16 and weighs 106.5 grams.

    ATP for shallow diving?

    Anyone use their ATP for shallow scuba diving say less than 15'? If so what kind of headphones do you use and do you get good volume. I bought a set of GG amphibians and tried them instead of my Blue Garretts. I wasn't real happy with the sound not very audible at max volume. Has anyone used the...

    Anyone use GG amphibians for scuba diving,detecting?

    If you have what did you think about the sound volume? I went down about 12' today with a new to me set on my ATP I could barely hear them at full volume. I haven't tried the Garrett Blues but wonder if they would be better since they have no volume control.

    I was detecting the water at a local lake on Mon. As I was getting ready to leave a young man came up to me and ask if I would look for his wallet that he dropped off a fishing dock into 4-5' of water? I ask him if there was any metal in his wallet. He said there was a metal emblem on the wallet...

    Getting a little lead out yesterday.

    Went to a small battlefield yesterday and managed these items. With the exception of the one bullet the others were quiet deformed. I assume they may have caused some personal damage. I still haven't found any buttons on this site yet but I know there maybe a few around. According to several...

    Excelerator EQ2 Pro?

    I have the above De-tech coil and have been very impressed with its depth and pinpointing capability on my E-trac. The insulation covering on the connector wire has deteriorated and I'm concerned about the water proofing integrity. I've wrapped the wire with electrical tape for land hunting but...
