Another one of my oddities. Dug this heavy copper pencil sharpener in a park today about 6" down. Couldn't figure out what it was at first but you can tell once I got the dirt out of the tapered hole and can see where the blade screws on.

I found a pretty heavy bullet too...not sure what caliper, copper jacket.

The pennies I dug were a mess. Can't make out much of anything on the wheatie, the next closest date is a 62, but the 67 is a mess, as is the zincoln. Seems all my clad comes out this nice reddish color.

The wheatie was close to 7" down and only an ich away from the 67 which was about 6" deep. Was using the 5.3 Eclipse on the Vision....under power lines... when I hit the pennies. Couldn't hit that area very well before with the DFX or 6000Di Pro.

HH,
Al
