My first Post - WWI dogtags at 9"
This is my first post and just had to show a find using my old Discovery 2000 (BH from Radio Shack).
These dog tags were found at 9" deep along the edge of the Great Miami River in an old town here in Ohio. It was the only non-trash item found, but then again I was only out for about a half hour. They came out pretty clean and only required a 20 minute hot peroxide soak to get them perfect. They were stacked on top of one anoter and almost seem to have placed underground. I'm used to digging trash, but nothing quite so deep.
I have been detecting for about 2 years and have recently started getting more serious about it. I have saved every last clad coin since I began and take real pride in not cashing them in. I have quite a stash of shoe boxes full of rolled coins in my closet and am ready to buy an Explorer II. With this recent find using my old machine, I think I'm going to have to learn to swing two machines at once. I just don't think I'll be able put my Disc. 2000 to sleep just yet.
