Haven't posted anything for awhile, got a new machine (Whites XLT) that i absolutely love... been out 11 times with it, still learning the different LCD numbers & Sounds and just about digging everything... here's my finds from the last two hunts at a house dating back to 1840.. which has since been torn down. the bust capped was standing on edge at about 6" deep, thanks for looking.

Has anyone else noticed that on that 1820 Capped Bust quarter that it is the Large O variety. It sure does look like the one in my 2012 Redbook. In fact i'm pretty sure it is. VERY nice find. Congrats. :thumbsup:

That Cap Bust Qt is outstanding.

I don't think I have ever seen one of them posted before.

I say Banner on that bad girl.

I don't know of any one I know ever finding one.

Congratulations for sure.

I love my xlt, it's the best machine I have ever used.

I love the adjustability of it.

I love the tone id and the dc phase.

I could go on and on.

It is truly a great machine.
