Finds were made from the last 2 weekends since my last post. 2 Friday and 2 Saturday 3/4 day hunts and one after work hunt during the week.
Temps hit 94 degrees with very high humidity.
2 of the barber dimes were right next to iron and very deep. One was next to a square nail and the other was right on that old push pin.
The 1911D barber dime was part of a pocket spill with the 1920 Canadian penny and a 1926 wheat penny so that was a garbled signal with a lower reading but was repeatable and deep.
The mystery bird design item was a low tone nickel type signal @ 7 inches. I originally thought it was a pendant but is upside down for that.
