Larger than normal pocket watch weighing over half a pound. Using the hot program on the Deus this watch was six inches down in very dark soil so the gold color really stood out in the hole. A watch this size and made of gold? But as I brushed the dirt away it revealed wear and brass underneath. Still a different find. Peace dollar not dug and for size only. Other finds including a draped bust LC.
