Last couple hunts and a heartbreaker.

[pa-dirt_nc-sand]

Still learning the Nox. Each hunt gets better. Key for me is to slow way down because it picks up so many signals and you can easily pass a good repeatable target.

Toasty IHP and wheats, but nice Buff with date and a killer silver dollar signal...


First complete oil lamp top with maker info on the adjuster, Bridgeport Brass Co.



Really cool button or pin from an old site this afternoon. Art Nouveau?




Pretty cool old brass valve assembly came popped out when “sifting” through iron


Here is the heartbreaker at the site this afternoon.

Thought it was going to be a flat button, but it was a small ring, rang up as a 16

Pushed the dirt out and could see some gold coming through the dirt.

Really tuff to clean, not a good sign, then saw 14 and a Templar cross...


Definitely “gold filled” with maybe 14k, darn! Anyone recognize the maker mark?

And a handful of other stuff including a spoon of course.


Good luck out there!

Nice assortment. I can't imagine you missed all that with your Garrett, so this must be your new site. The pointy thing looks like a guidon pole tip, could be military, or could be off a fence.

Thx Steve. All sites up near Cranberry that I have pounded. Funny, the Garrett gave an overload signal that had me think beer can and the Nox doesn’t have the overload signal tone. So I’m pulling some large relics at my pounded sites.

Nice finds Thad! I was going to mention to you the other day while we were beeping that school that I noticed you really slowed down with the EQ and seem more thorough. Congrats on all the goodies.
