    Wheat field goodies

    Re-hunting a site yesterday. Been using Alkaline battery pack and with the added voltage to my DFX
    I am getting deeper targets and picking up on the faint ones. Glad I had dug lots of pulltabs from
    here before, still get a few that are folded or tail tucked in, now I have less trash in the way to hit
    the deeper goodies. Found what looks to be a drawer pull knob that says Curtis 1866 on it any ideas?

    Ooooh! Nice finds!!!

    Don't know about the pull, but I love the old coins!

    New alkalines for more depth? That can get expensive!

    You've got to be going back today - good luck!
    God bless our veterans! Thank you for your sacrifices!

    Sure it's a drawer pull? Might have been on a farm implement perhaps? Thrasher, cutter or something like that?
