Within 1/2 hr. with a brand new Whites Prism IV, my brother in-law found these 2 in Stephentown N. Y. Still a little early in my part of the NorthEast but we found some clear spots. Found at an 18th century farmhouse foundation. The old apple orchard was clear and thats where these 2 were found. The orchard is down a small hill below the foundation about 100 yds. Not bad for the first day out! (this yr.) The quarter looks F-EF. G-3 on the trime. Do those outlying areas people, thats where we seem to have alot of luck. Todd
