XP Deus with 9"LF and 9" HF Coils and 600 Equinox with stock and 6" coils
Primary Interest:
Relic Hunting
I have been using the new HF coil and today found two mercs, 1936 and a 1941 plus a 36 wheatie. I keep my remote in my pocket so I just dig signals by ear. in this site, I usually dig 90-95 percent of signals heard. The 36 merc sounded like silver to me, 28 kz, full tones. the 41 on the other hand, I really thought I was digging another pull ring and was totally surprised. The bracket with the teeth, I wondered if it might have been part of a sling for a military rifle since it was found in the general area that I have found WWII finds. The wheatie was another surprise, I found it in an area that we had hit hard previously. I believe it was on edge and pretty deep but hit hard with the HF coi at 28 hz.

Nice silver, that bracket does look like something similar that I have seen on rifle slings
 

this makes the 14th and 15th silver found here for this year, 36th for the site, crazy!
 

You have a real winner in that Deus with the new 9 inch HF coil. I believe you will have a great year. It sure helps having a target rich environment like the one producing all these silver coins. Keep after it buddy.
 

NOTHING WRONG WiTH THE MERCS
 

Nice silver finds! :occasion14:

this is a pretty big area, close to 20 acres and I have walked almost every foot of it, just has a lot of very tall grass that keeps me waiting
 

It's always a great day when your silvers outnumber your coppers 2:1 ! Congrats, I bet there's a LOT of deep stuff still hiding for you to sniff out this year...keep at it..Ddf
 

Nice job on the 2 Mercs Dirtlooter.
 

Toothed item does look like the keeper for a web belt. nice

yeah, that's what I thought after I posted it, and about the right size for one.
 

Nice looking dimes,and that does appear to be a rifle sling.
 

Congrats on a pair of sweet silvers.
I do love Mercurys.
