I was able to get back to my 1850's site early this morning for an all day hunt. First half of the day was slow, only a couple of trouser buttons, a percussion cap and some lead. The latter half of the day finally started to get a bit more exciting with 4 buttons, more percussion caps and some misc, pieces of flat brass debris and more lead.

Running my Nox as follows.

11" coil

2-tones

recovery 6

iron bias 0

tone break at -9 to +9

sens 23

Park 1

That made for a great day! I love finding GSB's, but that Dragoon button would have been the icing on the cake............. maybe someday here in Az I'll get one, but at this point I'll settle for a 'C'.
 
Nice !!! Congrats!!!
