:clapping:A little Luck this morning before the rain

I went out with the old trusty Silver uMax this morning. Went to one of my old spots. I re-affirmed my bond with this machine. Found the OLDEST silver coin that I've ever found....an 1835 half-dime. Also found a corroded brass ring, and 4 bullets. This was at a Cavalry camp that I've hunted hard for about a year. I still like the performance of the Silver best of all. ALL of these targets were deep, and in red soil...AND THEN CAME THE RAIN.....
 
Man, I want to go with you.

It was too cold and lite rain.

I did a air test with 14k gold.

HH,
 
That SMALL coin was about 7" deep. I can't help but praise the Silver. I dug a .22 short casing today at 6+" deep. And I dug VERY little trash. The Silver seems to let me know when it's junk iron better than the Cib. I don't know why the Cibola didn't impress me like the Silver has. To me, it's like night and day. I may take a picture of ALL the items I've found with the Silver and post it. I agree with TABDOG...........The next purchase I make may be a Compadre. Cheaper IS better! (unlike wine)
 
After trying to clean up the ring a little. I found that it has an insignia of a military-type shield in the center, and a heart on each side at the widest point. Undoubtedly a "token" from a loved one at time of departure into the War. It is VERY corroded, however. Red, acidic soil is terrible on brass..........
 
Those are really nice finds, nut!

Easy to see that no place is ever hunted out,

I know that fellow Tom Dankowski has described in detail how coins may sink to certain depths over time, based upon information he collected from around the country, but I'm not so sure of it...

I think that in many circumstances the soil is turbulent.
Freeze and thaw, root growth, bio de-generation, and those all-powerful moving guys, the earthworms may even be a factor along with tunneling vermin.

Confidence in your machine may inspire a better job, also.

HH[/quote] You're right. And I'm not so sure that these fields haven't been plowed over the years, either. That will really make the goods sink!

Man that's great! :) I wondered how deep you snagged it! Tesoro is doing a good job for you... HH TonyTX :tesoro:
