Started with a Minelab xterra 505. Then Equinox 600 with stock coil, xl coil and sinper coil depending on circumstances. Now use a manticore mostly or oversized coil on equinox.
Primary Interest:
Metal Detecting
Did manage a silver this week too. It was found while detailing a car. It also looks like it was hit by a car 🚗 or several ha ha. 1944 P war nickel.

Rest of coins are from a fresh water beach full of iron I've started picking at.

One crusty small cent not show because im not sure what it is yet.

*1907 indian
*1883 no cents V nickel
* what appears to be a 1920 buffalo
*various crusty wheatys including a 1911 and 1923? Pretty hard to read rest of them
*button that's not silver but silvery looking. Maybe some kind of nickel silver/German silver 🤔 Not correct density for coin silver. Rings up around 60 on manticore.

*marble and plastic cowboy came out of a traffic island and a 1930s yard respectively. Both found chasing junky signals.

Thanks. It's really a pain here manticore can separate out the coins but you pull a lot nails and iron nuggets out before you find the actual coin signal. Feel like i have to get there with a potato fork and magnet 🧲 fishing magnet and do some cleaning before trying to detect more.
