Last Hunt Of 2023 = Copper!

[The Rebel]

Got out with Frank on Sat for a few hrs back at our button site. This site has coughed up probably over 200 buttons, coppers and several other artifacts.

Franks now swinging the Deus 2 & I'm now swinging the Manticore, so it's good to compare how both of our machines read targets. They are both very powerful machines and are sniffing the smallest buttons. I have to say so far, I'm digging much deeper targets (6"+) than I've ever dug in all my years detecting with the V, which was pulling targets probably in the 5-6" depth range.

Frank dug 20 buttons & I dug 12, so another 32 added to the button count. I was in the area where I dug the NJ a few weeks ago and got a good signal. After digging down about 6-7" out popped another copper.

It's a no date KG III, but I'll take it. That's 3 hunts with the Manticore and the 1st & 3rd hunt produced deep coppers. That makes 7 coppers for 2023.

HH & Happy New Year everyone!

Well done adding to the button total.
One has to wonder why so many buttons at one site.

Congrats on some great finds

I wonder if there was some sort of wash house or laundry there? Years of doing laundry would give you buttons and coins.?

What a great way to end the season! Thanks for sharing the info on your machine's performance. Interesting comparison. Congrats on a great hunt.
