Incredible find, congratulations. We could only wish for finds like that down here in Texas.

Were you using any special setup?

 

[sasquache]

No special set up Jerry just I'm running wide open screen (no discrimination)in ferrous tone with a vary little notched out iron that's it, up here in Maine the ground is so iron infested naturally and then man made iron junk, that most places the detector runs in null most of the time thus masking targets. Its a go too set up for areas like that
