I went to a tot lot yesterday that used to be an old house lot. I was expecting to find some common clad and get to know my MXT better. The first target was a piece of junk wire. My second target was a penny, about 4 inches or so down, right next to the slides. I couldn't see the front, and the back looked like a wheat. Sweet. My next find was my first ring.....OK, it was a tot ring but a ring nonetheless. I found a few pennies, one canadian, a dime and a nickle. Lots of junk hits with a few square nails.
I wanted to clean the wheat cent so I could read the date, so It's been in peroxide for the last 20 hours. I keep looking to see if its clear to read, and Yaaah-Hoooo, it's an INDIAN HEAD. Still can't read the date, but it's getting there. I'll try to post a pic when it's cleaned up.
An Indian may not be too exciting for some of you that have found a bunch, but for my third time out with my first detector, I'm on cloud nine.
