Detector(s) used
Minelab Equinox 600 XP Deus
Primary Interest:
Metal Detecting
2-3 more hours at my new early site. Not a single target newer than circa 1800( other than a few modern bullets and a few bits of can slaw) and not one all that interesting to me either. Did finally get a copper but its wiped. Ive always found at least 1-2 really sweet finds from my early sites but this one is not going to give it up easy if at all. Sites like these do make me appreciate just how hard it is to find the cobs, spectacle buckles etc that really get me excited. Pic includes all the keepers from my two hunts there. Not a single target read higher than 18-19 on the Nox. Gonna see what my Deus can do there on the next hunt

Nice finds! :icon_thumleft: I would be really happy to find all that!
 

Still a good haul. I too would like to see what your Deus can do there.
 

Nice bunch of saves. Congrats
 

Great saves, congrats!
 

Nice, interested to see if the Deus can pop anything cool.
 

well done,, what where your settings?

Nox 600, Field 2, recovery 3, iron bias 1, 50 tones, sensitivity 22, no discrimination

Well I went back tonight with my Deus 9” LF coil running full tones zero disc in Deus fast. I found plenty( some stuff not even pictured) and I much prefer the lighter weight and how much smoother it seems to run around iron.

Oh man, That looks like a nice sight!! Sweet finds so far
 

Ho Hum is not exactly how I would describe your batch of finds. Plenty of times I’ve gone home ( after a short detecting run like an hour) with a single flat button . But if I was working at it all day, a single button would be a disappointment for sure. Good job

First two hunts were pretty ho hum. Finds on third hunt with Deus was better but still no silver or crazy good relic
