This morning I took my new F75SE to a spot that I have hit pretty hard in the past with the GTI2500. This was only the 3rd time I've used the F75 and I wanted a place that I knew what to expect. The settings I used were discrimination = 6 sens. = 60 and tones = 4h. I apparently have done a good job of cleaning out this spot. After 2 hours I had 3 keeper targets. A 1981 cent, a lapel pin or tie tack from the 1964 New york worlds fair, and a 3 inch piece of "Bryan money". Bryan money was put out by the McKinley campaign in 1896. Bryan was campaigning to free silver from the 16 to 1 ratio to gold.
The token, or whatever else you could call it, is cast iron. It has lady Liberty on one side with the date 1896. The other side has an eagle with United States of America around it. On one side of the eagle is 16 to 1 and the other side has NIT.
I'm sure that I passed over this item before because of the GTI2500 showing it to be larger than a coin. Well I would rather have this than another wheatie any day!
