So funny to went back early this morning hoping by just a slim chance I get another Seated dime well that didn’t happen, but some amazing things did. I have my equinox set up for coin shooting to my nickels (11/12) and anything about 18 has high volume and junk/trash in a low volume. I get out my truck take 6 steps and literally my first target was a 8” solid 12. I’m thinking V nickel and to my surprise a gold ring with 3 rubies that deep. The band was cut and bent, but what a surprise and it was a solid 12. So I really got motivated after that. After much digging I got 2 IHPs (which I’ve only found 2 in 4 1/2 years and they where both roasted BAD blew my mind. Also 2 War nickels 1 Buffalo, 7 old wheaties and a junk ring. Truly finding a IHP much less 2 was amazing to me. IMG_2856.JPG IMG_2862.JPG )
1901/1905 IHP

I’m gonna need to look at that video of your relic settings. I saw a detecting video the other day when a guy said he had it set on the “calabash relic settings”. Words getting out

Getting famous folks

You are tearing it up! Great finds! Love the gold and garnets. Uh, I'm a little worried about you though, are you putting that machine down once in a while to eat, or sleep?
