It was a perfect day to hunt, 72 degrees, overcast and it had rained the 2 previous days making the ground perfect to cut plugs in. First swing, first signal was the funky junk ring, I figured that was the perfect way to start a hunt. Within 30 minutes I dug the first girl scout pin, which I was expecting to find at least one, 2 was icing on the cake. Not far from the second GS pin I found the other pin, not sure what it represents, but, cool looking. The lead disc I suppose if from some part of a meter base, maybe a small lock out tag perhaps. The back plate was about 3 inches and gave a damn nice signal, I was very impress because I was running a custom coins only program I made up last night and it seems to work just fine. The Disney charm was a couple of inches down and of course was a screamer. And I did manage to find 2 half cents at the end of the day, the big draw back is, they're zincs :) I was amazed I was able to find both pieces within a few inches of each other. I included a pic of my program, I've got a couple of other places I'm going to try on as well.
I was using the Etrac with the Coiltek 5x10 coil, that little coil works like a champ, I did hit a memorial at 7" nice clear tone with a solid lock.

Looks like you had a fun hunt. I like pulling scouting items.

You may want to go back and hunt the area again with an open screen just to see what you missed.

I like using that 5 X 10 Coiltek too. I run it in 2 tone ferrous and work it real slow in trashy areas.
