Sunday Jim and I hit a field that was totally loaded with modern trash, can slaw, and whole cans everywhere, enough of that! We went to a field I hit 4 yrs ago with my xterra 70 and I think it gave up about a dozen indians before. With the etrac I managed to snag 4 indians 1873, 1879, 1881, and 1906. From there we hit a small farm house that I hit before as well, got a few misc relics, old gas light valve, fancy makeup case, and a broach. Two of the indians turned out nice and two were crusty so i had to get aggressive with them to see details and get a date.
Last nite we hit an old ball field I have been working, lots of fill dirt here, clad is all 7+ inches, so the old stuff is all 9-10+ inches. You have to run manual to even reach the oldies. I got a quiet lil high tone but it was reading 01-31....01-50, 22-41, every pass was a different number and the depth meter was pegged to the bottom. I was at 29 manual sensitivity. At 10+ inches out popped the 1927 merc dime. Shows you that those crazy numbers can indeed be deep coins!
