Got out and found a few finds today. I found an 1884 Canadian Dime, 2 Indian Heads dated 1887 and 1901, 2 Wheats dated 1919-s and 1945-d and a 1959-d Memorial Penny. The Canadian Dime and the 1887 Indian Head were in the same hole with the round item that is pictured in the Misc. Pic below. I was getting a wierd signal that read between 8-10 on Digital and was 8" or so deep. Every once in a while there was some other sound but I couldn't distinguish what it was. I decided to dig it and when I put the Probe into the hole it gave me a signal but it was mostly a null. I was detecting with 8Reale and he came over and asked what I had found. As I dug out a bit more dirt, I told him most likely Iron junk. But when I put the Probe into the hole it gave a high tone and then I said maybe not and then out popped the Dime. At first it looked like a Barber but then I soon realized it was an old Canadian Dime. Then I stuck the Probe into the hole and it sounded off a medium tone. Then an Indian Head popped out of the hole. I stuck the Probe back into the hole and then recieved a low tone that I thought was going to be a Nickel. That is when the round item came out. I think someone told me that these were part of a shoe. It is concaved and flat on the bottom and it has a post with a round ball on the top. The detector seen the Round Item and couldn't give a proper signal due to it being in the same hole. So next time you get a strange signal, dig it because you could pass up something like I found today.
