Finally made it into the 1700's club today with a 1737 george ii copper! Was hunting an early farm field and got an indian head signal. Sounded nice and depth was reading 5 inches. Popped the plug and my pinpointer went nuts inside the hole. Moved some dirt and saw a larger green rim. Removed some dirt and realized I had something good! Love the fact that it's holed too! A little toasty but she's all mine haha.

Thats why doing it quickly improves your finds rate. Beep/dig/pouch 30 seconds or less.

Getting better at it for sure! That's why I seek tips from all the experienced people here. So much to learn. It's a hobby and all but to make it really fun I think efficiency is key.

That ain't toasty. You got an ID! Congrats on the 18th century club

Thank you, sir.
 

Congratualtions on the great find! :occasion14:

True, always so much to learn. When I stop learning I will give up.:thumbsup:
 

That one came out clean! Congrats on joining the 1700's club
 

Congrats and welcome to the club. I still remember my first, but it was dateless. The British coppers ring up a lot lower than our US coppers. Normally in the 70s for me and US around 81.
 

VDI SIGNALS IN WITH A NICE FIND.

Funny you mention that. This one rang up like a zinc penny on my f75. It was a sweet signal though. More reason to dig those mid tones I guess.
 

Very nice old copper
