One of the prettiest sights.....

[Dan(NM)]

To me anyways!! There's nothing like seeing the silver rim of a coin in a plug, had that happen 3 times this evening. I started off in an old park for a couple of hours this morning and was able to pull a wheat, rosie, a dollar coin and a funkie oriental coin of some sort before having to head to the house to get some things done. Later in the evening I headed over to an old high school that has been producing over the years. Perfect hunting condition, cool breeze, shade and soft ground. The second target was another rosie, deep, I ended up digging a second plug, low and behold, I see the rim of silver I make 4 more passes and get a broken high tone but the numbers were good enough to investigate. It pinpointed nice but was off center, usually a coin on edge. I cut the plug and there it is, almost straight up and down about 6" deep, another silver rim, sweet!! 1918 merc. The last good target, was choppy with a mixed high tone with an iron growl, but, I would get a good VDI every 2 or 3rd pass. Another deep plug and there it is, another silver rim. It was getting late and time to call it a day. I ended up with 2-rosies, 2-mercs, 1-dollar coin, 1-oriental coin and a tiny Budda.

Is your CTX working again Dan or is that with the etrac? We both did well today,I came away with 2 mercy,2 Rosie's a Barber dime and a 43 war nickel. That's a different topic. What the real point is...FBS can't be beaten for finding old coins in turf. No way,no how...don't wanna hear it. Fantastic hunt!

Parks and schools are great sites as your bright silver finds show! Great hunt you had! May it continue to pay off for you!

I did a master reset yesterday, pulled the battery, let it set for awhile, then took it out. It was worse than earlier. So, I took it apart, cleaned it and was getting ready to ship it to Minelab. This morning I decided to try it one more time. Everything's working fine except for the user function button, it's unresponsive, the map screen button works half the time. It didn't jump to other screens today, but, it's gonna have to take a trip sometime soon. I sent Jamie@minelab an PM with the video, I'll wait to see what's next. But.....today was great

The CTX was hitting some funky signals and pulling em out from the iron tones and yes, baby Budda helped as well

I'd be making a trip to my favorite Chinese buffet and see if the coin is Chinese.
