Newbie’s birthday gift came

[WVTazman]

Sorry I’m writing this a few days after receiving my first metal detector a Minelab Equinox 600. So I got and after assy and charging I hit the backyard to see what find. So within 5 minutes I dug my first pop can and then got a real strong 35 and a deep reading I dug and dug until finally at 12 inches i hit something. I’m not sure what it is but I took a pic. It is something electrical if you can there are 2 leads with connectors on the ends. So anyway I had a blast.

So Monday I hit a local park I was only there for an hour or so but I found 3 dimes 2 pennies some junk and a few things I never found. One thing I dug had a reading of 39 and deep so I dug and dug and at 11 inches I dug what looked like part of a galvanized fence bracket. So I’m really excited to get back out and see what is waiting to be rescued from the dirt.

God bless,

Maybe car related, like the bracket that holds the headlight in place? Just a wild guess. Gary
