It is Deer Season here here N.Y cold and snowing 28 degrees.
So i dressed in Blaze Orange, bagged the Omega and walked in to the woods behind my house 3/4 mile to an old cabin site i recently found...it`s not on my 1860 map.
I like to hunt with the Omega and the 11" DD coil sens. 99 in all metal it has the sweetest sounding threshold a joy to listen to... ID numbers come up in all metal...no EMI problems here in the stix.
First target old spoon ID 70 i knew it was long from the wrap around sound beep at each end.
Then an old brass buckle 7" down then a toy truck...what i thought was a bridal rosette,maybe not has different back.
A 1805 Draped Bust LC kinda toasted a at 9".. 92 ID, a small wood splitting wedge...a hand forged copper hook a second buckle and a 1905 S Barber Dime at 8"
Wood chuck pushed the Ink Bottle out on the ground partly buried.
Been searching for an old French Trading Post back in there for years, A Cornell Professor was looking/telling me about 20 years ago ...but this site was en`t it .got some junk too

Great Finds... good to see the Omega seeing some action.
 

Very cool, Gary. interesting finds from a productive site. I should work on all metal mode more. I have a question too which you may be able to answer---
When in disc mode then you pinpoint is the tone intensity still discriminating at the disc setting you put it in or like in all metal? I need to pay more attention to the ID on the display which probably tells you that.
 

Wow....... great hunt Gary:hello:
 

Gary... forgot to mention this before. Thanks for posting what each target ID'd. As I'm still learning the Omega, having this information is very helpful. Very much appreciated.
 

Very nice! If only that toy truck could talk! Love seeing this stuff! WTG!
 

Nice silver!!
 

It might not be the trading post you were looking for, but with those finds it sure looks like a good site to keep pounding! Large coppers are always a welcome site in the dirt- congrats!

But the deer hunters might be mad if you are digging during the season... I know around here you might not get shot, but you sure might get a warning shot buzzing nearby if you interupted someone's hunt!
