Hi all,
Went back to the old church I pounded previously with the hope that using the big coil and hitting the iffy signals I might get lucky. Well, I got some luck! No largie this time, but I dug a 12-21 that also gave me a peep of a high tone. Instead of the expected pull tab, I found a nice silver plated lead horse pin. I then rechecked the hole, and got a sweet solid 13-45. So about a foot down I find my first Barber dime since joining the forum! A bit worn 1909, but nice nevertheless! :thumbsup02:
I also managed a few late Wheaties and what I think was an old button. With the amount of fill and really soft soil here I really could use a good PI machine. Little trash left, but the goodies are typically a foot or more deep. :shocked01:
