I did manage to get out for awhile last weekend and found a couple great coins. I went out to worked out parks in the area and found the following coins. I got a CYRUS HALL McCORMICK Token that says 1809-1884 and Inventor Of The Reaper on the front. The back says International Harvester Company, Centennial Of The Reaper 1831-1931. This is the 3rd one of these that I have dug since owning the Explorer XS. I also managed 2 Silver Coins as well. They were a 1874-H Canadian Quarter and a 1925 Mercury Dime. The Quarter was about 8+ inches in heavy trash and it was giving me a really wierd signal. I was going to try it with the Joey Coil but I thought it was going to be trash. I dug it and then I wished I had tried the Joey to see if it would have given me a better signal. After I found the Quarter, I went and put the Joey Coil on and found the Merc about 3 Feet or so away from where the Quarter had come from. The Dime was in the heavy trash and was about the same depth as the Quarter. The Joey did give a better signal on this coin. I also found some Indian Heads that are dated 1880,1900,and 1901. The 1900 and the 1901 were in the same hole and the 1880 was only about 6"-8" away from the other 2. And lastly I found the usual Wheat Pennies. The dates on these are 1909,(2)1914,(2)1919-s,1920-d,1929-d,1941,1946-d,1949-d,and 1958-d. I also traded some tokens at this weekends hunt for a Walking Liberty Half and a 1886-s $5 Gold Piece.
