I have searched this park with 4 other detectors and searched it pretty diligently in 6 months. This is a small park and it is full of aluminum. There a lot of shredded cans, round tabs, and square tabs. I took the Equinox 600 and avoided 15-18 TID for today and concentrated on 12 and below and 19 and above. I dug a few 13-14's, but they were square tabs.
I did get a few dollars in clad and toward the end I got a 22, which I was thinking would be a clad dime or penny. Out pops a 1942 war nickel. I put the plug back in and rechecked the hole and there was still a 22 signal. I opened the hole back up down a little lower there was a 1943 nickel.
I haven't dug a war nickel in a while and I am pretty sure these are the oldest coins I have pulled out of this park. I don't even recall getting any wheaties out of this park, but there has been a ton of clad and some junk jewelry.
So I am considering the first hunt a success. I was hunting Park1 in 5 tone. The Archmage bluetooth headset didn't let me down either!
