I have been on a roll the last few hunts and getting very comfortable with the CTX 3030. Had some time to check out a couple new properties I have permission to hunt. Got to spend about 2hrs at each, kind of a prospecting trip. First property dates back to 1800, second to 1840, both were Inn's in the early to mid 1800's.
My first signal at 1st property was a 1962 Washington.I was only detecting about 10% of the available space here. Found about 15 clad and two wheats then a solid 12/44 at 2", took the probe and located it on the surface, scraped the dirt away and saw "one dime" wow a Barber I thought, wrong, my first Seated dime,1875-S and very sharp. I couldn't believe it!

Second property was a clad factory, hunted around till I started finding some wheats. First silver a 1965 Canadian dime, next silver was a 1913 Barber dime, also 7 wheats.
