Hello Everyone,
Today I hunted a field not far from the college that in the past, has produced a few old coins. The ground was a bit tough, but the Raptor 25 C pushed through the “slightly frozen” ground. After a 2 plus hour hunt only two old coins were recovered from the cold dank soil: toasted 1897 V-Nickel and toasted 1903 Indian Head cent. Today, I used the Minelab Quattro with a Sun Ray 8” coil and a “special” coin discrimination program to allow only nickels and higher toned coins, just for fun.
Thanks for looking,
GL & HH
