Cool Medalion found today with my daughter!

[Gonehunting]

I took my daughter to the park in town and when i got there, there were two guys metal detecting. One had a new ATPro and the other an Omega 8000. We talked a bit and scanned and compared targets and they left. I made my rounds around the park and came back to where they were when they left I got a 12-46 at 4 inches.. I thought yeah probably trash if they didn't dig it... Lol yeah right...

.

It is a Centennial medallion from 1873 to 1973 for Durant, Ok. Says Queen of the Three Valleys 100 years Gateway To Fun Country. Needless to say a place is never searched out... ;D

Now come on, the reason we didn't dig it is because we quit to talk to you.....lol

It was good to see another detector and compare notes.

Lol well can't say I'm sorry but can believe that big coin has stayed unfound for so long. Makes you wonder what else is out there...

Smashed pop cap and a cigarette lighter top were in the dirt I dug up with it... The pop lid hits high but the lighter top hit low. I could here the hi-lo and kept getting the 12-46 so I dug...
