2 Much Trash
Well-known member
My first detector was a double eagle. Then I bought a nautilus mf,then got a 1266, which I've had for about 15 or so years now. I hadn't been relic hunting for quite a few years until 2 years ago
I stumbled on a place and got permission to do a little digging. The property has no visual signs of any civil war activity but it is in a good area. I've have hunted it maybe once or twice a month during the winter months for the past 2 years. I've never been skunked at this spot, but the last few times I've gone, I've come close. The ole 1266 has pulled out some good stuff at this spot.A coffee can full of bullets, .69 cal., pistol bullets, .58's, and even a few 2 ringers. Also, several eagle buttons, some flat buttons and my favorites, a mass. cuff button and a 1839 dime with the O mint mark. Pickins' are getting slim now, at least for what I'm able detect with the detector I have, not to take anything away from its performance, it's one heck of a machine, and I'm sold on Fisher. My question to you guys who hunt with the F75 and have hunted with other machines, should I bite the bullet and get a F75. I know theres plenty of good stuff left in the ground. But this place is loaded with trash. Tons of iron and aluminum. If those ole boys back then drank Millers or Old Millwaukee I could start a museum. Will the F75 get thru this trash and go deeper to find the relics I know are still there.
