I've never kept track of exactly how many pull tabs or junk I dig compared to how many nickels or rings. I know it's a pretty high ratio - I'm guessing maybe 15 to 20 pull tabs or beaver tails for every nickel I dig. And probably at least 75 to 100 pull tabs or more, for every ring I have dug. Of course this doesn't happen every hunt - it's kind of a running total that averages out over time.
Here's the pics of the finds from my last hunt with Lowbatts in one park, and me alone in another park - the 10K ring, one wheat (1944), several clad coins, and the US Department of Justice Deportation Immigration Officer Pin came from a park that's been calling to me every time I drive past - I hadn't detected it for a couple years. I have a feeling I'll get some silver there. The back of that D.O.J. pin says HAL MFG. LA. CA. I'm SO glad it WASN'T stamped Made in China! How ironic would that be... It appears to be gold plated but it's pretty beat up - maybe the officer that wore it got into a scuffle in the park.
The junk shot is included for good target to junk target ratio. This particular day wasn't too bad.
