Got out today on a new site and did pretty good for a first hunt, 1864 2 cent, 4 shields and a liberty nickel, 1874 and 1888 indians plus several homestead relics from the 1800s . The nickels are toasted unable to get any dates , fertilizer is hard on them. Alot off crockery and glass laying on the ground. Found a brass or copper container and alot of lead and brass!

So many targets in this field I got tired of digging! Has to be some silver !
 

Wow!! Congrats on the finds. Was there a lot of larger items there or did you just pick around them?. When I get a new homesite I spend weeks trying to get the larger items out of the way.

Alot of iron I usually don't dig it! I have my iron tone on the deus 2 turned down that it's barley audible.
