Last 2 evening hunts with Se Pro NUTS AND ALL

[Ray-Mo.]

As soil was so dry I am very limited for areas I will hunt but the pro coil works well in the bone dry soil.Has been raining all day so should improve a lot.Etrac will be here any day and will be anxious to give it a spin or two.
Finaly got this photo downsizing figured out and it is a breeze so will be more apt to post finds now.Before I had to set my camera at .8 megapixels and hope it would be small enough.It usualy was not and I would get disgusted and forget the post.

Nice finds Ray! Even some good lookin relics in the pile with the iron. You might want to consider getting a scanner - they're pretty cheap and take much better resolution pics of individual items than a camera - of course a camera is still best for the whole nut. I use an Epson scanner and love it. Great job on the hunt - looks like you have some productive areas there. Was it a park? Best, Erik

It was a park from the teens through 40s and is now a cow pasture.The land owner could care less about a little dead grass and that is why I hunt there when it is so dry.
A little better pictures of the fob and token both with Swastica like marks the one is on the back with cross on front.

You must be hunting Virgin ground!.....It sure ain't no hard hit place....that many targets dug and most, most likely sounded good ...I see a swasstiker, can't spell it...but it use to mean good luck back before Hitler took over...I got a coin with it on and also a wish bone and other good luck things....heres a pic....yours is a badge shape...cool.

I noticed your close-ups are fuzzy and out of focus..What kind of camera? If you have one similar to mine and I have it in macro...I figured out when taking a close up, my lens has to be dial all the way out and not zoomed in at all. or else it will come out fuzzy. I get much better close ups. I can get up to less than a half an inch close but most won;t let you get that close cause they will blurr out...I read the manual to find that out....huh...like I need to read the manual.......lol...but yep I had to .....I just saw the other pics.....wow...nice stuff....I was asked to go to Missouri...St. Joe ...huh...maybe I should ....nice digs.

Looks like a lot of nice finds and I like the Relic and the Canadian Large Cent. The Large Cent looks to be in terrific shape! Continued Success, Good Luck and HH to you.
