Last day of October 2015 - a walk in the park

Ran into the "Hoover Boys" in a B'more park this AM and had another great day of detecting. This is my 5th consecutive hunt with at least one Indian; today there were four (two in one hole). The very worn IHP was at 10 inches and dates from 1865. Most of the 7 wheats: 1916-1937 were deep targets; so the F75 and NEL Tornado are doing the job. A find at the end of the hunt is the Distinctive Insignia of the 12th Infantry Regiment.

Great recoveries.

Thanks BF1, weather was excellent and with so many folks out I had several lengthy conversations with passers-by who were curious about what we were doing.

 

[McCDig]

Thanks RJ55, with a number of us out detecting there were some other good finds: an 1850 LC, a 1914 British half penny, and a 3-ringer fired mini-ball.

Great job on those IH's, love that coin!

It is a good hunt when you can pull 4 IH pennies and all those wheats these days.

That is a great hunt!
Did the Hoover Boys have their NEL coils on the AT today?

 

[McCDig]

Thanks qaela4, maybe one of these times 1877 will show up.

 

[McCDig]

Thanks CoilFisher, I believe all coils on the ground today were from the Ukraine.

 

[McCDig]

Agreed. It's always good to see the indian.

Hi sutphin, plenty of info on-line to id the insignia badge.

Thanks CoilFisher, I believe all coils on the ground today were from the Ukraine.

LOL. Yes, I saw their one video with the AT and the NEL.
I have a NEL on a lower end machine I use and it does pretty good. Never bought a big one.
Stable on your F-75?

That Indian looks flattened out or is it the pic?

Awesome Halloween digs. It must be the year of the IHP, I have pulled 23 myself, and I have seen so many posted this season. Glad to see you're pulling your share.

 

[McCDig]

CF, must be the pic.

NEL Tornado Booster DD very stable on F75LE. Had another productive brief hunt early Sunday. Will post finds later today.

Hey L-C, I'll continue to "pull my weight" on the indians. Congrats on your 23!

Ty for the info. Always curious on their products.
Can't wait to see your finds.
And, yes I can tell now--must be the way the Indian was positioned. Thanks!
