Well I got my V3i about 5 days ago and have been pounding my yard at night after work. Clad, clad, and more clad. I went to my aunts house this morning and had a blast. It is around 120 years old and as far as we know was "virgin" ground. This is only my 5th silver this year, and the only one that was not a Rosie. I also found this old copper match box. Any ideas on the 7" copper item? It was stamped "J CARTWRIGHT WARRANTED PURE COPPER" I am thinking this is for cleaning out hooves on cattle or horses. The land is in the middle of town, but was pasture land 80 years ago. Thanks

Congrats on the walking liberty, still waiting on my first walker!
 

Great finds!!!!
 

Nice walker, that copper looks like a cigarette case.
 

Thanks guys, before I was getting tired of digging "50 cent" targets because they were always can tops and crushed beer cans. Now with the analysis on polar plot it is a lot easier to distinguish trash from treasure. Being in a place that hadn't been pounded helped a lot too.
 

That happens to me too I probably dug 30 of those old beer caps today alone, just can't stop digging them. Lol
