It was a perfect day to hunt, 72 degrees, overcast and it had rained the 2 previous days making the ground perfect to cut plugs in. First swing, first signal was the funky junk ring, I figured that was the perfect way to start a hunt. Within 30 minutes I dug the first girl scout pin, which I was expecting to find at least one, 2 was icing on the cake. Not far from the second GS pin I found the other pin, not sure what it represents, but, cool looking. The lead disc I suppose if from some part of a meter base, maybe a small lock out tag perhaps. The back plate was about 3 inches and gave a damn nice signal, I was very impress because I was running a custom coins only program I made up last night and it seems to work just fine. The Disney charm was a couple of inches down and of course was a screamer. And I did manage to find 2 half cents at the end of the day, the big draw back is, they're zincs :) I was amazed I was able to find both pieces within a few inches of each other. I included a pic of my program, I've got a couple of other places I'm going to try on as well.
I was using the Etrac with the Coiltek 5x10 coil, that little coil works like a champ, I did hit a memorial at 7" nice clear tone with a solid lock.

Looks like you had a fun hunt. I like pulling scouting items.
 
Those are really nice finds
 
You may want to go back and hunt the area again with an open screen just to see what you missed.
 
Hey Cudamark, when I have more time to spare I will. I know I missed some stuff no doubt.
 
I like using that 5 X 10 Coiltek too. I run it in 2 tone ferrous and work it real slow in trashy areas.
