Hey folks!

Not a ton to report today. Was passing by an old permission that’s been great to my brother and I but has slowed down a lot.

I decided to crank the sensitivity way up and look for deep signals that have eluded us in the past. I had a little bit of luck thankfully!

In about 2 hours I found 6 Wheats (including a 1910-S!), 2 old spoons, a hem weight and a funny old pin.

Not a bad little outing! Hopefully some more goodies are hiding there for a future date.

I’m headed to Minneapolis tomorrow for work tomorrow so no hunting for me until next weekend at the earliest.

Good luck out there!

It's always amazing what you find when you change the hz, turn up the sensitivity and the discrimination down! :thumbsup:

Cutlery always takes such a beating from the plows. :laughing7:

I found a 1910 S digging through my grandmothers coin jug about 50 years ago. Still have it!

Thank you! It certainly won't be my last visit to this site with these settings. I think there are some more deep pennies and hopefully even a couple dimes!
