Detector(s) used
Minelab:
Sovereign GT
Equinox

Tesoro:
Comparde
These were found in the same location I have recently pulled Indians, Rosies, V and Shield Nickels.
This time I went back over the same ground running all metal with a threshold on the Equinox.
All of these coins were around 8" deep in heavily iron/junk contaminated soil.

In discriminate mode none of these three coins rang at all even with a very slow sweep speed.
Lessons learned today:
1. No site is ever "hunted out".
2. Any discrimination in extreme junk ground may make you miss targets.

The Bird band was found today in a wildlife management parking area. It was coiled up but I straightened it out.
I'm going to try to contact the fish and game to hopefully find when it was attached.

Happy hunting all!!
