This wasn't even on my bucket list... military hat badge.
I got a great permission this afternoon while I was beeping my neighborhood street tear-out... small yard, house built in the 30's or so... very clean, only a few targets. I was cherrypicking the tones, looking for silver, I was rocking the 5X8 coil, only getting clad, the deeper targets are secured for another hunt... Lightning getting a lot closer, I called "one more keeper" then I doubled back to an earlier penny signal, or so I thought! While it was ringing up as a 75 - 76, it pinpointed bigger than a coin... on its side, this popped out of the hole....
I am totally stoked about this find!
I have seen hat badges posted in the past, but I never expected to find one, and call it my own!
