Back At It

[OxShoeDrew]

Got home yesterday morning and after lunch was able to mount a long hunt. I remember when long hunts went from sun-up to dinner...no longer...my arms hurt even though I padded my cuff and tied an oxshoe to the back as counter-weight. I hate swinging the Equinox...but I have to say it does one thing way better than my trusty ol' T2...it hears non-ferrous under nails. Many of these finds were missed by my T2 and had nails above them. The button had two nails above it! The T2 is better at covering ground and IDing targets and I'll go back to it intermittently after I finish going back to all my old sites I've already covered with the T2.

The button seems to be a New York City Police button from the 1870s, the copper is a left facing something, decorated colonial drawer plate, and some other keepers. Thanks!
