A cancer pendant, a very thin silver ring stack style and some clad. Nothing spectacular...

A few notes for potential or new users...

Went with the 6 inch coil today for a small coil it was going off like crazy... pinpointing with it good... very..very trashy area was chatty as hell... interesting had a eraser head come up 26 area more like a dime...instead of 13 like the nickel... also the silver ring came up at 26...dime area... the cancer pendant I broke the loop off the pendant thinking it was tin foil at first...

One more note on the coil... so light gets stuck in uneven grass... and the other day with the standard coil had a quarter come up low... as a 26/27....

Pics included... again potential buyers... a few things... the tid numbers are bunched way to close together it is mandatory you learn the tones which may or may not be hard for a new user... coins are overlapping and do not expect any of the coins to sit on one number all the time reading wise... and the depth meter definitely just gives you an estimate to put it nicely...

Nice haul !
I'm a big fan of small coils - ran a 6" EQ 2 Coil on my E-Trac for 5 years - 7" Dimes - countless great finds.
