Well I returned to the field that gave up all the buttons yesterday. This time I brought Jersey Ben along with his brand new e-trac. We hit a few buttons in the field between the chalk marks when I got a strong penny signal at only one inch. Expecting to find my first Memorial Cent of the day, I was surprised to see a large copper right near the surface! I'm pretty sure it is a King George II.
After about 30 minutes, the girl's soccer team showed up so we hit an adjacent field. Almost immediately I hit another penny/dime reading at around 7 inches. I called Ben over to see how it sounded like on his detector and was surprised that his e-trac could not pick it up with Auto Sensitivity on.
Out of the plug dug a nice Barber Dime. All of my previous dug Barbers are very worn, black or pitted or a combination of all three!
A few minutes later I got my second large copper, which turned out to be an undated Matron head.
Unfortunately the coppers are not in great shape, but finding a pretty Barber was a treat!
