Got out for a couple hours tonite to a new section of a site that has been good to me lately. Site was trashy and ferrous and not giving up good targets other than a stray clad until I got one that sounded weird and bouncy and silvery, with all the CO numbers bouncing in the 40-45 range and deep. Turned out to be a 7 coin spill -- 4 wheaties and 3 silvers :happydance01:, 8-10 inches from the coil when accounting for the grass. I think that sliced quarter may have confused the E-Trac a bit; I certainly think it confused me. There were also a pair of hot rocks in the hole that the pinpointer picked up as well. Looks like one of the wheaties also got grazed by the same machine that decapitated that quarter (shame it wasn't the other way around :mad:).

Each of these targets came out separately after rescanning the hole. It never hurts to reiterate -- always rescan your holes.

Also pulled a rosie last night at a different site.
