Finally broke the dry spell. I hit a spot that I haven't been to in over ten years, and I'm not sure why! The last time I was there I pulled an 1800 half reale and a bunch of wheats.
First target was the 45p war nickel, that I assumed was a modern nickel up until I gave it a rinse. Second target was the chiffon red lipstick case. The fork soon followed. I googled it and it came back with a date of 1941. Things dropped off for a bit until I got that fat sounding coin reading at 6 inches. I knew what it was as I got excited, but was disappointed in the condition it came out of the ground, a very pitted 1851 Large Cent. 1919 wheat cent wasn't too far away. Then I got a bunch of penny dime readings, 5 in a small area. Hoping for a Indian Head or silver coins spill, it turned out to be a modern coin spill of 4 pennies and a dime.
The last three targets of interest were the tuning pegs from a guitar, a braclet, and a silver pencil with removable lead. Anyone have info of silver pencils? It almost looks like a Cross pen.
