Had Great Weekend with the ETP

[exahab]

Early 1900's homesite produced 1913 barber dime, 6 early wheats all between 1917 and 1919, and what appears to be a chewed bullet button??

Another Location gave up a 1904 worlds fair German Heater token

Then I was trying on sunday to locate the travel route of an old road that was supposed to have civil war travel on it and located some spent bullets and an old iron stirrup.

Great Weekend out!!!!

Heres a pic of the bullets and the stirrup. Is the stirrup civil war?

Nice finds! What were your settings? Alot of trash too?

I always use zero discrimination I want to know all the targets in the ground all the time.

I run sensitivity at 8

volume at 11 Which is one of the features I really like about the ETP is the individually adjustable iron volume.

When field hunting I also always dig all overload signals Ya I dig a lot of old iron trash but I find something cool on occasion. Plus I always show my finds to the owner (usually a farmer) and when he sees all the sharp iron I take out of his fields (and away from tractor tires) I usually get more places to hunt.


Yes there was lots of iron but most of it was big iron. Most targets were clear and easy to lock on. There was some iron falsing of course but its getting easier to figure out.
When I was looking for the old road I had to dig every target until I began finding the evidence of road I was looking for. Exhausting and frustrating until you find an old stirrup
