How about a "Pin a pasture field!" Back to a site where we've found lots of flat buttons, cut pistareen ca. 1720's. Taking my time in a 10' x 10' or so sq. & found a couple of flat buttons, then found a first for me......a brass stick pin fully intact with the head & seems to be the sharp point. (IH just there for size comparison). Down about 4". Never know what that little squeeker might be! Thanks for looking! Dns

That would do a number on my bare digging fingers. I know I am bad.

with my eyes the way that they are now, the only way I would find it would be when it was stuck in my fingers or hand. Heck I struggle finding those pesky thin wires, been know to chase em all over the place.

Now that's a sensitive machine.:o Way cool find. One thing I also am liking about my Makro Racer 2 manually ground balanced @ 44 is it has been hitting on incredibly tiny targets. Some targets are so small my Garrett Pro pointer won't even go off while holding them against the tip. That's a quality I love in a machine. Great recovery!:icon_salut:
