I went back into the woods today. I say woods, but it's more like a jungle. The wooded area isn't very dense, so there are a lot of briers, and other undergrowth. Most of it has died down, but it's still a mess. I decided to switch out the 9.5" coil for the 4"x6" DD coil.

I did this for 2 reasons: The amount of trash (iron), and the vines and bushes that you have to swing through and around.

I started hunting near the old well, where I found the Half Cent yesterday. Right away, I got a solid signal. :hello2:
Single Bar 70.webp
I thought it was going to be another coin, but it turned out to be a brass wedding band.

It appeared that the ring would be the only keeper for the day, but as I was coming out of the woods, I got another good signal, and I turned up this brass keyhole plate.

About 2' from where I dug the keyhole plate, I find this little green IH.

Ain't she purdy? I haven't dug an IH in a long time, and none of them are as pretty as this one.
Here's a pic of today's total.

I have a couple of interesting finds from yesterday that I will post in the "What is it?" forum sometime this week.

I've hunted this site several times, and a few of those times I had help. Until yesterday, no coins. I really had a great weekend of digging. I'm starting to feel more comfortable with my DFX, and I'm getting excited about what I might find next. :hello2:

Thanks for looking, and Happy Hunting!!! :hello:

Thanks Ricky.
You're right. More and better, but no matter how experienced you are, and how expensive your machine is...You are still going to dig pulltabs, or miss some gold along the way. I wish I had saved all of my pulltabs since I started. It would be interesting to see how many I'd have by now.
Happy Hunting!

Nice finds, that Injun is a beauty :hello2:

I dig a lot of pull tabs, especially if an area's not too trashy. I like LOVE finding gold :thumbsup:
