Went out for 2 hours on Wednesday to try a new, more extensive Nail reject program. Scored 2 small Eagle buttons (real bad) and 2 (1864, 1865) Indian Head Cents. The program works just fine lol Today Del was doing the family thing and it was gonna rain, so I was on my own. I really didn't want to get up this morning since I have been working a lot of odd hours, but I forced myself to detect :cheesysmile: lol The rain did make me almost cancel and sleep all morning, but the site I wanted to go to was the one that gave me 7 Coppers and 2 old silvers. I really wanted to try the new program out. First target of the day was a heavy iron null and a high tone. It kept repeating, so I dug it. Got my first SILVER knee buckle |
) Never found a silver knee buckle before and only my second solid silver buckle of any kind. That was on the way to the cellar hole. I worked the cellar hole for a bit and got a pewter button, pewter spoon bowl and some odds and ends. I then decided I was gonna try something that I have always wanted to try. I jumped in the hole and started to use the x-1 probe and put it in between every rock that it would fit in. It's kinda quicker than it sounds and about 3/4 of the way around, I hit paydirt :happydance01: It was kinda under and in between 2 tall stone that were at the top of the hole. After not hearing any sounds for all those rocks, it kinda scared me when I hit the target lol Solid 12-47 :smitten: :smitten:. Just scraped a pinch of dirt that was with the rocks and had an 1822 Copper in my hands This is my first official coin that the x-1 probe found, all by itself thumbsup01 thumbsup01 Not the greatest shape, but I'll take copper #8 and silver again from this place. I can only say this place likes me. Maybe it's because I promised Del's soul to the cellar Gods lol Also got a couple of cloak buttons, another pewter , a jaw harp (my first I think) :thinkingabout: and some other odds and ends. I got rained on a bit, but worth the effort. But my E Trac did not like the moisture today. It would switch from manual sensitivity to auto sensitivity back and forth at it's choosing 
Also I couldn't use the quick mask, as it would start to move the Conductive discrimination up at will (like a stuck button) :thinkingabout: After it dried out a bit it was fine (except the dual cursors lol) Gotta love old ET, even though it has some issues, it never lets me down.
