Went out in the freezing cold to work the 1850's school yard. Did I mention it was cold? After the first 10 minutes I had to start the car and turn up the heat. After about a half hour I could feel my fingers again. The sun came out and the wind died down a bit and I went back to work. I tried the Impact with the monster IM40 coil. That was a waste of time with all the iron.
Grabbed the Deus 2 w/11" coil and used the Legacy program I added last week. Swung for about 10 minutes listening for the high tones between iron. Dug a few bent nails earlier so I figured this target was going to be another. Flipped the plug and rechecked. Target was still in the hole. Pinpointer made easy work of finding the target still in a clump.
After a quick swipe.
All cleaned up, look at that detail.
Next was another 80's signal, sounded good. I thought could I get lucky? Nope, bent lead disc.
Last signal before I couldn't stand the wind anymore, a 62. I thought awesome maybe another nickel. Not to be, just a head stamp.
I dug quite a few bent nails today. Usually they have a scratchy sound to them. Today they all sounded clear. Figures temps will be in the mid to upper 30's all week while I'm at work. Looks like a high of 33 next Saturday when I'm off again.
Thanks for looking...
