Detector(s) used
XP Deus, Fisher F75 ltd, Garrett Pro Pointer and a little luck
Primary Interest:
Metal Detecting
I have been continuing to hit a large CW camp site that is being bulldozed for a new subdivision and everytime I go in I manage to come out with something. The bracket on my coil that attaches it to the metal detector broke last week. I took this opportunity to purchase a new machine. I chose the XP Dues. I received it Wednesday evening. I charged it up and set up some programs that I researched on the web. I took it out after work on Thursday and it performed well, it has a lot more tones that I will have to get used too. The only issue I had is the coil lost its power only an hour or two. I figured maybe I didn't get the clip that charges it attached properly. I charged it again and noticed it wouldn't completely charge, even though the charging light indicated it was fully charged. I took it back out this morning and it only lasted 2 hours. I have emailed the company I bought it from requesting a replacement, just my luck. I did take a back up detector with me today and was able to gets some more relics.

I thought it might be a ring at first but its flat on the bottom. I found in the same section of property that I pulled a lot of Eagle I buttons and New York Buttons. Some others have pulled some Michigan buttons, I was late to that party. I was surprised by the detail on it. I thinks its brass, it still has some shine on it.
