i WENT TO A SPOT IN NJ (I WON'T GIVE THE EXACT LOCATION YET) I HAVE HAD GREAT SUCCESS HERE AND FOUND BUTTONS AND A CANNONBALL, BUT I WAS NOT FINDING EVERYTHING I THOUGHT BECAUSE OF THE COIL I WAS USING. I CHANGED MY 9 INCH 3KHZ COIL AND STARTED USING A 10.5 DD 18.75KHZ COIL AND FOUND THESE 2 LARGE MUSKET BALLS THAT ARE STILL ATTACHED. I FOUND A COUPLE OTHER BALLS WHICH SEEM TO BE THE .69 CAL, BUT THESE ARE MEASURING AROUND 22-22.5MM. IT WAS SO HOT TODAY THAT I HAD TO CUT BE HUNT SHORT. I HAVE NEVER FOUND MUSKET BALLS THAT WERE STILL ATTACHED BEFORE, WAS A HOT BUT GREAT DAY.
