Hate to beat a dead horse but this Equinox looks to be a real performer even with an 11” coil. Hunted the iron patch of the seated field and found the Braided hair LC and 1875 dime nearby. Both were horrible signals but it would ocassionaly jump into the high conductive target range. First LC from the site and I always thought there had to have been a few LCs still in circulation in the 1870s-80s. You can even see a rust stain on the reverse of the LC

Congrats on the great finds! I'm dedicated to my SE Pro, but the Nox seems like a winner based on all the posts I'm reading. May be time to expand the arsenal. Continued success to you!

you are correct, i found a 1876 seated quarter and classic head large cent side by side in the back of a field where there were no other targets so they had to been dropped together

No but Ive probably swung over that area with many machines including Deus. Things move in the ground, soil conditions change and all but Equinox can hunt
