Detector(s) used
Equinox 800
Just thought I’d share this…

I’ve been in a drought recently, so I thought I’d just take it slow today and just enjoy a day of detecting.

It paid off!

On my second home permission, I met a really kind grandma and I had a blast talking to her. However, I wasn’t finding anything,and the yard looked really landscaped. Then, low and behold….I got a 28-31 signal on my equinox 800.

I popped the plug out and saw a plastic disc—no! That was silver! An eagle was staring at me from the hole.
I’m happy because it’s my 2nd ever standing liberty. Ive Yet to find one with a date intact though.

The grandma thought I was hurt when I cried out in happiness at the find 😅

The rest of the hunt was uneventful except for the fact that I broke my $30 garret shovel :(

Bye and good detecting to y’all!
