Safari finds from today and 2 first :detecting:

[Mississippi]

Got out a little bit today and hit a spot that has produced a few good relics. My first find today was a CS rolled brass scabbard tip the next first for me was a cut three cent piece pretty cool. All in all ended up with the scabbard tip, cut three cent piece, bottom part of a Spencer, round ball and a piece of melted lead. Had fun digging and enjoying the nice weather.

Mississippi, those are great finds. Love the 3 cent piece. What kind of depth and numbers were you getting on those. Especially the coin.
Thanks for posting,

The depth on the scabbard was around 4-5 inches with a reading of 32 the coin was around and inch or two with a reading of 23.

Mississippi,

Are you using ferrous or conductive tones?

Great finds,

Tom,
I am using ferrous tones in the relic mode.

Thanks.

How about the roundball and the Spencer head?

I haven't heard a large brass relic yet, just buttons that came in 12 to 14 or 18 to 21 depending on size. For me, 32 is a lead target.

The round ball was around 32 or so and the Spencer was at 23.
