I just picked up a better camera but I am still trying to learn it so forgive the poor shots. These finds are from a "hunted out" park a few min. from my house and all found with my Safari. I have hunted all different parts of this park but found 2 areas that were producing so I spent most of my time in those areas. The first set of photos are of 1 of the 2 areas about half the size of an American football field. The field is very trashy and in every hole going below 10" I found brick, rock, pottery, glass and pockets of rust,etc. It is a very noisy area. I didn't find a lot but they were good finds to say the least.
At first I used a custom setting of 12-15 and 32-39 with the stock coil. It was this setting I found the items. I then went with the preset coin mode and found nothing more worth mentioning. I then spent a little time with coin and jewelery mode and found the watch. It would be great if any of you have more ideas for searching and coils to use.
There is a LC 1839, 183? and 1817, 1894 Barber Q and a Province of Nova Scotia Token. There were 2 late 1800s IH and two 40s Mercs but they are mixed in with more photos to come. The button as seen has an eagle holding maybe an anchor. Last but not least is the watch. I am almost certain the center is gold the disc below is silver. Let me know what you guys think.
I have many more posts coming, as all you know I can't load a large amount of photos. Any questions?, please ask me.
PS my next post will have the remaining photos from this post
