Hey all,

hunted an abandoned farmhouse property - 30 miles north of GR where I once hunted another house on the property with a buddy back 10 yrs ago or so.

Took the Gold Bug Pro and the E-Trac with me... The ML scored all of the silver pieces, most of the change, and 1 of the round copper pieces, and the GBP hit on the iron & other relics as well as a few coins.

Found a good and wide variety of artifacts including a sterling silver ring, a barber dime (6th one this yr so far) and a canadian 1/4 from 1872 - - - also found some sort of German Eagle swastika military pin/badge but it's missing one of the wings (looked all over for the other wing but no luck??). Got a makeup case/lid from the 1910s/20s from the looks of it --- some sort of lid/cap (squashed) but has a pat. date of 1879 and it must have went to something with an expiration as it also says "From June 5 1882 to Sep. 12 1885 --- a brass buckle (style of a scouts buckle) but has an "M" on it?? Don't know what the 2 iron things are - a cigg lighter case, some doodads, and a pile of clad - - - all in all it was a GOOD hunt!
