Wooo Hooo! I got out for a couple of hours this morning and it turned into one of the best hunts ever. I re-visited a site where I have dug several tombac and flat buttons in the past. I walked into the woods and changed my program on my F75 to 4 tones. I have been running it in 2F for a long time so I changed it up a bit. My first good signal was a bouncy 60-70 with a little iron mixed in. I dug it and when I dug the plug it sounded much better. I saw a tiny silver disk and I let out a shout!

I also found a very unique item while I was digging the area. I think this is even more rare than finding the Spanish Silver. I dug a Brass Serpent Side plate from a very early musket. I haven't seen many of these dug. I had no idea what it was until Buckleboy clued me in. ImageUploadedByTreasureNet.com1478305743.097547.jpg
