My Meager Finds...Sunday's Relics

I decided to hunt a different way Sunday than I normally do. I bumped my Transmit Frequency up to 18kHz, ran Sensitivity at 100%, and raised my Transmit Power output to level 3, which is maxed out. My intentions were to only dig very small and deep targets all day hoping to find a very small item of great value. It worked well except for finding anything valuable. Maybe next time.

I had such a fun day that it would not have mattered to me if I had found nothing. It was a bit cool and wet for a while but my three crazy friends kept me in stitches time and time again so I did not notice the weather that much. Our tailgate lunch was very good too...smoked ribs, brisket, and deer meat chili. All heated up on site. It don't get any better than that!!!


These are my smaller than normal sized finds. I finally rolled a coin out after one buddy pulled his tiny 3 cent silver, but it was so brown, ugly and eat up I thought it was just a modern penny a farmer lost so it's not even in the tailgate shot. I did add it to the cleaned up pic.

BIG Surprise for me after I scrubbed that UGLY Penny for a while. May never see a date on it...but I know what it is.

Jim,

Nice finds and that's what friends are for - to turn an uncomfortable day, into a fun day. And you are right about the Large Cent, at least you know what it is. Congrats on the day.

Thanks Joe...it kind of reminded me of the weather during our last hunt. Only colder and less wet. I sure enjoyed our ghost town hunt.:)
 
Jim,

I gotta laugh at myself now. That Merc was so ugly, I thought it was a large cent in rough shape. I re-looked at it and finally recognized the Merc head. Wow, it fell on hard times. I am guessing a fire? My detecting buddy found a large cent a few years ago that had been in a highly fertilized field and it was only recognized by its size. Yea, our last hunt was a little muddy. LOL Come to think of it, so was our first one!
