had a great hunt on Sunday at a new permission. I've been trying out Deus Hot on 4.0 KhZ and the 11" coil to try and find all the goodies that the higher frequencies might have missed. My first hit rang up great and was only about 5" down...I filmed the "extraction" that turned out to be an 1812 Large Cent (large date i believe). This is the second 1812 I have found but the first that isnt holed. I then found a few flat buttons, watch winder, a brass cap from the pole of horse buggy, and then a toasted 1833 Half Cent. I am going to try and get some of the verdigras off of the 1812 with a toothpick when I get the chance to go buy more. In the meantime, it soaks it distilled water and get the occasional rubbing of a wet q-tip until no dirt comes off. Photos below as well as the video of pulling the 1812 out of "sitchu".8-) (not sure how a thumbnail of my ws5 headset got uploaded but I cant remove it for some reason)
