    Back to town park. On silver Rosie, 191? wheat and button

    Was out yesterday in our local park. Using my trash program(pic attached) I found a 1964 dime, 191? wheat and a button. I did find the end of a toy gun. Was using my etrac with tornado coil. Going back Sunday if my new NEL BIG coil arrives for my F75. I did notice the pattern unmasked targets in iron. If I opened the screen I could not hear some targets. but when I switched to the pattern I could.Name:  park.jpg

    Nice finds and I think that the last digit on the wheat looks like an 8.

    Then that is one old wheat. That was the first wheat I found down there. First silver coin. Have found 1 gold ring, 2 silver spoons, 1 pocket watch, 1 Civil war button, 1 CW Officer Belt buckle (buddy found), 1853 quarter (buddy found), brass key, and 3 flat buttons. Cant want to try my F75 with the BIg coil tomorrow or Sunday. Hope to find an epic find.

    Thanks for the date I have a hard time reading small print items. I am blind in one eye and not great in the other. I have to use adapted equipment to use the computer.

    Here are some finds at the same place with my new NEL Big coil on my F75. Found some items at least 12 inches. Just got the hand of it after 4 hours and was time to go and wore out. Noticed that if U set the disc on 45 it gives a good read on the low conductive targets that range in the 30 tid. The finds are sash buckle, 2 buttons. The one with the 3 holes has w....&Plough on it and the one item appears to be a watch part. Name:  part10.jpg
