Took the E-trac for a spin this afternoon for about an hour. Hit a new field with my 15x12 SEF coil and had a bit of success. Found these four round balls and a couple whatsits. If you can help ID them it would be appreciated. Not sure if they're of any importance or not, but I'd like to have an idea of what they go to. Thanks and Happy Hunting!

Nice recoveries! The big item on the right looks like it could possibly be a rosette.

That's why I had it grouped in with the penny so you could get a size reference. Others suggested bridle rosette so I'm pretty sure that's what it is.

Excuse me for trying to help! >:( I have always found that it is much more accurate to actually provide the size rather than to plop a penny there to guess by.

I wasn't trying to be an a$$, I was just stating why it was with the penny. So that everyone had a scale reference. Sorry if I offended you.
