I had a couple of hours to kill today so I went to a local spot where finds are hard to come by lately. I hunted a large field where a grandstand stood from 1900 to 1960. I have found many 100 year old coins here throughout the years, but today I struck out. I wandered over to a picnic area that is as extremely trashy. I was just about out of time and I figured that the T2 would not do very good here. I swung right into the worst of the trash and had tones and numbers jumping out every four or five inches. I saw an eighty number flash on the screen and I backed up. There was so much trash that I could only get the 80 signal from a couple of angles. I got the signal isolated, but I couldn't pinpoint because of the trash so I used my Minelab sweep and back the coil up method and it worked. From 7 inches, dead in the middle of a 4 inch plug I got a 1909 penny. The big coil takes some work in trash, bukt it can be done because of the T2 super fast response. A 4x7 DD coil would be a killer on the T2. Also, I have about 10 hours on the T2 and the battery level just dropped one segment. At this rate, I might only need two sets of batteries a year! R.L.
