I took my Excalibur II out in the soybean field. I'm waiting for my new coil from Deus to get back from the shop. That machine works good, it's just allot lighter in the water lol.
Enjoy the pic

How do you know? Looks toasted to me???

I found a large green coin today that is also toasted, can’t see a thing on it sadly.

Thanks Kev, I had a AT pro that I really needed money, so I sold it. I can and have rigged up the control box and battery on my hip/belt swinging only the coil. Actually that multi frequency Excal is one hell of a field machine, I hunt in pinpoint which really goes deep. Most of my fields are not littered or loaded with iron to the point where I need my Deus exclusively. My backup is one of the real treasure hunters number one pick, I see it all the time along side of the CTX 3030. Thats the reason when you see those guys hit the salt water the Excal is in there hands.

Congrats on the old copper
Thanks Art

Sweet find Brad. That excel might get a few deep ones!!
Thanks Ken

Nice find! Congrats and HH
Thanks Dude

You detecting junky!
Can't help myself, I know you know, never know when that sweet sound of old silver will pop out of that ground!

Nice find. Almost looks like a William and Mary. My eyes must be playing tricks on me.
Thanks, put your glasses on?

Love those ole big coppers! Congrats!
Thanks


Thanks for all your comments
I will try and put up what it should look like and what is left on my toasted coin. Maybe then you guys might be able to see what I'm seeing. If you notice The neckline is smaller and pointed and her nose is much closer to the edge of coin (further right lower) the point of the cap can also be seen on my coin

Based on what i think i see of the line of the bust to the neck -shape/size - i think you may be right about this being a Liberty Cap . I just now see the chin line too ! Good Find for sure !

When you learned on a beep and dig machine,, you shouldn't have a problem with the Excalibur and some of it's distinctive tones.
Nice save Brad.

I probably won't make it out today, thinking tomorrow, I'm going to rig the controls on suspenders. Yesterday the weight started hurting my shoulder and forearm. I'm spoiled by that Deus. Thank you brother.

Thanks.

Nice one Treb! That’s one I’m yet to find. Hope there’s some old silver out there in your near future

Thanks Abe, wish you had more time to hunt and could have joined us, maybe this spring? March April we all might get together again?

Congrats on the nice old copper.
Thanks TH
