5TH COPPER & A NEW YORK EXCELSIOR BUTTON!

went on a short hunt with Forino yesterday afternoon.dug a 1890 IH,a suspender buckle & a sterling horse pendent.
fast forward to today.5:30 am and bitterly cold couldn't feel my fingertips for most of the morning.
stopped at a cellar hole and random one we spotted alongside the rd.got a 1818 matron head large cent,a designed pewter button and low & behold...i finally got my 1st NY Excelsior button! been wanting to dig one of these for awhile! 5 mins after i dug the NY my spectrum crapped the bed i hear a slight buzzing sound no display won't sound off over a target.i just got this back from a white's dealer too.they overhauled it now this

That button is killer....

Too bad about the machine. Is it still not working after warming up and drying out a bit?

Great hunt otherwise !!

Nice button, I could use a button like that.

I'd like a big crotal like Sniffy got too.

Bummer on the recently "fixed" tector.
