I got in a few short hunts in the old city parks with MetalHeadz this weekend. He is on a Barber Dime streak this year. He popped another one on a slope at a more obscure dot and I asked to swing over it. My 600 only gave a 27/28 consistent signal 2-3” above the dime, on edge nothing. His 800 was giving decent repeatable signals 4-6” above. It’s probably time for me to clean out the coil cover and do a factory reset.
...but, I was swinging a nearby dot that had popped lots of 1800’s target for a quick after dinner hunt and got a deep 27-31 bouncy signal in the iron. After two scoops, maybe 8”.
A nice thin Barber of my own! Oh well, there goes my theory.
Here is the roundness for the weekend.
Some toys popped out. I think this is a gyroscope, Boy Scout knife and a CW lead soldier.
Base of lead soldier.
Handful of relics.
The flatbutton has some nice gilt on the backmark.
And drum roll please... my first ever holed ... spoon...
Seems like they holed everything back in the day.
Good luck out there!
