Took the X to my pounded farm site......

Aaron

Well-known member
Brought the X to early 1800’s farm site I’ve been pounding since 2011. One of my best sites ever, has produced all kinds of coins, buttons and relics from early 1800’s on. It has though long since dried up. The CTX didn’t leave much behind. Since then I’ve brought the DEUS, IMPACT. TONS of iron here. Yesterday I found the Imperial Orange flat button (early mid 1800’s) 9” down, it hit HARD, it fooled me as I thought it was maybe 6” at most. It turned out to be on its side, on the side of the bottom of the plug. There was a nail above it too and threw off my pinpointing, unfortunately grazed the button. Never scratched a button before, I’m bummed! The other smaller button not sure what it is, missing shank. Was only 5” down however it was mixed in w a lot of iron. was only a few yards away from the flat button, hit really hard too. Up to 8.5hrs on this machine and learning very quickly. VERY IMPRESSED w it’s power especially on small items and it’s ability to unmask it iron!

Great report Aaron, nice one
 
I found out from Keith the little striped button is a geometric style common for the period on dresses etc..
He didn’t say what period,,,LOL
Thanks Mr Southern.

The stock coil, it’s the only one for the X, for now.

Sounds like it gets great separation for a 11" coil. Hope they release a Super Six for it soon.

Have you ever used the Gold Gain? I was wondering how the X and GG would compared head-to-head in iron.

Thanks
 
Yes, the stock is no slouch in iron, though I wouldn’t say heavy iron. Can’t wait to see at least a 8” coil. Very similar to my GoldMaxx Power, though the GMP leans on the digital side of tonal quality. I find analog X tones are very warm, very easy to interpret.
Only other Vista I have is a Mini Max which is the reason I gave the X a chance. The Mini Max for a entry machine works incredibly well in iron.

Hey Aaron it would be like a solid 1830s period.!!
