Here is day two at this one spot..
After day one, I had no clue that I was going to have a second day of great finds..
When I got there, I again headed up the sidewalk and found more pre1920 wheats. After the sidewalk I headed back up into the yard to start where I had left off the day before.. Immediately, I found a 1914D wheat cent.. I was pretty sure that it might have been a scarcer find but didn't realize it's value till I got home.

After getting the dirt off of it I looked it up and was shocked at what the value started out at..

I continued up the line I was working and found these two Rabies vaccination tags from 1949.

A few feet further came a rusty "Old Timer" pocket knife. Continuing on I got a 94-95 on the Deus and out came my first silver of the day..

I needed some water to clean it off, so I went next door to fill a bottle up. While I was there I gained permission there.
Moving on I found my first Indian Head Cent of the day.. A 1901. Later in the day I moved over into the second yard I had gain permission, The yard was super trashy but managed a second 1901 Indian Head.

Only moving a few feet back into the original yard I got a high "quarter" sound that was right on the top of the surface and out comes my second silver of the day, but this was a ring. It looks like bones, but it does say .925 and it has a hallmark.

Only moving a few more feet into my grid I got another repeatable tone and dug... The weird thing about this ring is back in November when I found my first Indian Territory token I also found a smashed ring just like this one.. That hunt was in a different yard over 6 blocks away..Very odd coincidence.

After finishing my grid, I moved back into the middle of the yard and started concentrating on questionable signals and immediately dug these two Buffalo's..

Feeling tired and was getting ready to go home, I told myself, "one more signal"... what a surprise...

How long have you had the XP Deus and how would you rate it's performance overall? What are it's strengths/weaknesses vs the Etrac?
Nice outing! And good thinking getting more permissions while out getting water!
thanks,

I got the Deus in early March. I feel very confident in it to the point where it is my main detector now.. Strength is much faster finding targets. and is definitely quicker and takes less time scanning than other machines and it is extremely light, weakness I don't think it has the depth of the E-Trac but I don't have comparison to back that..... It's like a several machines into one.. I will be impressed if another company makes something to trump it... jmo...
 

Don't clean the 1914-D, and send me the token!
Kidding, the coin is sweet, but I love the territory token.
I dug one 1914-D, but slashed Lincoln's face with my shovel. And I mean slashed.
Kudos!

lol I like finding tokens more that anything.. the only thing I did was hold it under the water faucet and soaked it in water and did it again.. dirt came right off..
 

I'm assuming I.T is for Indian Territory, not Idaho Territory?
I believe that there is one, maybe two Colorado Territory tokens out here, would kill my detecting partner for one.
Really.

Yes Indian Territory.. before Oklahoma became a State in 1907 it was kind of split down the middle. The eastern part was Indian Territory I.T., the western part was Oklahoma Territory O.T....
