Hey guys, I haven't posted on this forum in a while but, I GOT A GW BUTTON!!!! I was detecting at a local colonial tavern site out on long island, (iron infested!!) when I got a choppy 39-42 signal on my xterra 505, for xterra users this is usually a copper, but it was super choppy so I decided to pass it up, after walking a few feet I thought to myself " eh, what do I have to loose" so I turned around, swept over the spot, now it was coming up a solid 39, not choppy( different orientation of the coil) so I popped out the plug, sill in the hole, one more scoop, so I took the last scoop, dumped it on the side next to the plug... this is when things got good, I saw the rim of what looked to be a large button, I thought, probably just a dandy button, so I broke the clod away and there it was, staring me in the face! An eagle with the star above it! I couldn't believe it I instantly started calling every one I knew! first off I called my dad, He could tell I was over the moon with excitement! This was only the first day of my three day hunt! That was most definitly the best day of my short 15 years on this planet, I would like to thank bookfisher for getting me into this hobby!
