Last week I picked up an MXT All-Pro as a second detector (everyone needs a second detector, right?) and finally had a chance to try it out it at an older park for the first time.
I started out digging several early Wheats and then an 8-cent “pocket-spill” that included an 1891 V-Nickel. Not far from where I found the pocket spill, I locked on to another deep target which yielded an 1898 Barber Dime.
Out of curiosity, I measured it’s recovery depth and it was no less than 9” deep.
By the end of my hunt, I had found another V-Nickel (1887), a few newer foreign coins, the remains of a wooden-handle fork(?), and a small, slush-mold tea-cup (CrackerJack prize?).
I’m looking forward to getting out again. . . if it ever stops raining.
Thanks for looking!
