With temps in the 60's t-bucket and I got in a little hunting time at an old ballfield. Found only my second silver quarter and the barber dime. Both signals did not lock on right away, only gave off a quick peep on the initial swings. Further slower and short sweeps and they both locked on at around 6 to 8 inches. The barber dime was on the bottom of the plug when I turned it over, nice to see. Added 8 wheats most of which where iffy signals that were deep. I have started digging anything that is at the bottom of the depth meter. Thanks for looking.
