Indian head, Buffalo, flat button. You couldn't smack the smile off my face. Congrats on a PRODUCTIVE hunt.
Hunted before maybe? Any chance there's an "S" peeking out on the back of that IH? Nice finds!
Got permission at an old house I've had my eyes on for a while, I'm surprised that I didn't get more but I'm happy with what I got View attachment 857080 cool Pontiac token, 09 IH, 35 buff, small flat button, and 9 wheats
My atpro hardly sounded off, man I hope nothing's wrong with it
Lol I suppose I sound a little greedy here. I thought perhaps my detector because it seems "off" lately hard to explain but in pro mode it sounds kinda choppy, but when that's happening I noticed the numbers registering between twenty and forty. Almost as if it's acknowledging the stuff below forty that I discriminate out. I tried the quarter thing you mentioned and bam, solid 87 at 6 Inches. I'm gonna go with what you suggested and say that it's a clean yard. Or hit already, I recently started hunting with an old timer who's been at it for thirty years and through conversations I found that he's hit some of the spots in rural areas near me that I've been too lol he probably hit this spot too. Thanks and hh!Oh SURE!
As long as the finds keep coming, everything is hunky dory. But, let them slip, just a bit, on a site where expectations were high and right away, Gee I hope the machine ain't broke. LOL
It sounds like you have what I call a "clean" site. Believe it or not. Not EVERY household trashed their yards. Some people actually take the time to find and use their trashcans. They can be a very pleasurable place to hunt. Maybe, sometimes, a little boring but still nicer than a trash hole.
If you doubt your machine, dig a hole and bury a quarter. It might tell ya something about the ground anyway.
I'd say you have a fine start. Listen really, really closely. Might be a deep ground!
HH!
