Had a couple hours of daylight after work today so we headed back to the park where Bob got his 2 seated dimes on Monday. He talked me into using the Nox for my first time ever. I headed up the hill from him so as to not be called a bottom feeder πŸ˜„. Before I could get up the hill, he texted me the pic of the quarter and badge he just found. I was feeling discouraged being totally unfamiliar with the Nox. And this part of the park has SO MUCH IRON! We call this part the junkyard. My 4th hole I got the seated!! I couldn't believe it! Also got a wheatie! I think the Nox gets more depth than I have been getting with the Legend. If anyone has a clue what the badge thing is, we are stumped. Happy digging!!

Congrats for knocking a Seated off your bucket list!! I think the next step is to get your own Nox, once you get used to it, you'll be amazed at your finds!

We got 2. I just never tried it. I hate learning new machines! πŸ˜„

Congrats on the nice Seated dime. My first Seated coin was also an 1891 dime. Great find.

I totally understand, but, at least in my own experience, it has been SO worth it!
You might be right! I'm going to try to learn it for awhile!

True but so frustrating. I swear it is nothing BUT iron covered with a bit of dirt. πŸ˜„
