Never thought I'd find one of these so I bought one (1866) at the last C4 convention. Then I had a good, albeit strange, day on Saturday. Found a Town Common on the map the at I'd missed before. Spent some hours detecting the depth of the bowl but realize more and more that the lower parts were full of fill. (By the end of the night I'd realized a stream had been covered with soil.) Once the amount of fill dirt kicked in--can you say clad at 8 inches?--I took a breka for lunch and then started hitting the higher edges where I could see erosion. Skipped some surface shit that I probably shouldn't have--but I was tired of clad by then--but hit a bouncing but centering 3/29 signal at about 4". Dug this puppy. 
(And the pictures do NOT do it justice!--I'll try to get better ones in daylight.) I was so happy I showed it to a couple of young teenage girls sitting on a a bench--I think they though I was just some old perv at first but they thought it was pretty cool once they'd looked at it. (I made sure to avoid them after that.)

Worked my way around the far side by the town hall into an iron patch and into the woods before I found anythign else interesting. A good capgun copy of a .38 revolver--thought it was the real thing at first--and then a 5 coin wheat spill (but so dirty I'm still H202ing them.) So ended up with a day with almost completely modern crap except for this nice puppy.
Though I did lose my fucking keys by the end of the night--luckily having just installed a magnetic key storage a few days before--retraced my steps and found my keys 30 feet from the vehicle.
