My friend Tom called last night and wanted to hunt the local park this morning. So after finding the usual clad coins I hit a nickel signal. Dug down 3 inches and found this!
This is a FIRST,and the weirdest find I have ever dug!
There must be a one eyed bandit using the park. The contact is still in the factory package! Then,Tom said the shuffle board court was old,so off we went to it,and the first signal I got was a faint no TID dime tone. It sounded good after crossing it both directions so I dug it. After digging down 6 inches (hard to do in the dry ground,) I found this!
a 1939 Merc!
Later I found "something that looks like a arrow head,(but it isn't) it sounded and had the same TID as a dime. I'm not sure what it is?
So todays finds were a mixed bag for sure. The contact lense is the strangest target I've ever dug so far though!

I'm guessing they are easier to hit,than the deep dimes? Anyone care to share their ideas?
