Went to an old hunting spot with a new detector today and boy does the XP Deus pay off! I have hunted this spot for half my life with my old detectors, and had lots of luck including a SNY plate. The very first signal I dug turned up the perfect thing to go with my plate, a NY militia button with gold gilt!:hello2: AMAZING!! After that there were a few trashy signals and then yet another button, this time it was an Eagle button! :icon_thumleft: Then for some reason the signals dried up for almost an hour. I decide to go check a trashy area that I have avoided for years as my detector was never able to discriminate the goods from the trash. Apparently those days are in the past thanks to the Deus! Over the next few minutes I pulled two round balls and a miniball, all within five feet of each other. at this point I checked the time and decided I needed to head off to work. On the way to the truck, I scanned along the fence leading out, and got a faint signal. Never one to put work before detecting, I stopped and checked the signal. To my excitment, out pops a VA militia button! What an amazing day!

Nice looking NY and congrats on the VA!
I just bought a Deus and have only had it out once. I'm not sure yet that it's better than my F75. Were you using one of the standard programs or a custom program?

That XP Deus is supposed to be a workhorse now and from your finds in a previously hunted spot it sure looks that way.Congrats on that VA militia button.
