1st hunt at new permission finds Sterling!

[CCDAMEEK]

First real hunt with my CTX-3030 back in upstate NY, and the repaired speaker sounds off on some pretty good finds.

Two wheat cents found their way under the coil. A 1936, and a 1944.



Also rounded up two 1982 Lincoln cents, that appear very different. Don't have a gram scale here, so weighing will have to wait to see if one of them is the bronze version, but thinking it is.



TWO rings, and one religious cross pendant also found their way under the coil this day.
First ring is marked Sterling.
Cross pendant is only marked 'FRANCE', and is a youth sized pendant.
Second ring has no markings, and is a youth size ring. Rang up as copper on the CTX.






And total of all coins equaled $1.52.

Nice to hear some sounds from the CTX-3030! Hope she keeps sounding off all summer.......

I've had the 3030 for almost 3 years now. Just never knew it had a speaker in the console because it never worked. Found out just in time before the 3-yr warranty expires.
There is a LOT of history in the Rochester area, with the ports off of Lake Ontario. Can't believe you have never dragged a detector with you!
