I met my buddy early this morning at a promising site. Just a great day. A light westerly breeze and lots of sunshine. I used my GTI 2500, my buddy used his GTI 1500. It got a little thick with tree saplings at times today. That sniper coil just works like a dandy in those areas.

It didn't take very long before tell-tale finds indicated that there could be some good finds today. I rejected zero to 5.5 on my Garrett 2500 screen so that I could concentrate on silver and copper.

After about an 8 1/2 hour day of hunting in the woods, it was time to stop and make our way back to our vehicles. My pouch was getting full with good targets and junk. Here's what the contents of my pouch looked like, minus the junk.

I also eyeballed this cute old doll. This is what it looked like after a scrub with soap and ammonia. It's still stained with black humus from where I found it. My buddy didn't have a camera, so he asked that I post his silver. He really did well with his GTI 1500. Three silver coins in a hole is terrific!

I managed a couple of silver coins, some old Canadian small cents and a couple of Wheaties.

Here are some more keepers. That 1925 dog tag still had some leather attached to a D-ring. Simply amazing after all these years that it hasn't rotted to nothing.

You just never know what will show up under your coil, and it costs you nothing to find out.:)
 
Looks like yo had a great day John.
My faves are the cute doll, the good luck token and of course the beautiful merc.
Nice location for a peaceful hunt.
:cheers:
 
I would love to have you down here to teach me a few things about MD'ing where old houses once stood in the woods.They are everywhere here. So is the metal trash associated with them. On a 1/4 acer piece of land, my great grandfather buried a cashe. My great grandmother knew he buried it in the garden. There is an old car setting in the garden and metal is everywhere. I have MD'ed it twice with no luck.
Sounds like you had a good day of it. My buddy loves the out doors, but I can't get him into MD'ing.
What is it with you Canadians and sex tokens? You found it in the woods, so is it an old token? Do you know the history of these things?
 
Some good finds. :thumbup:Silver always nice to find.
