Far away from Motherland out pops this beauty!

I didn’t even think I was going to find a penny today as my heart really wasn’t too much into it but that all changed after I found the silver looking coin. The area I found it in was right next to an old potato cellar. ( This is the park that is all grown in with trees and shrubs) The area is saturated with iron ( due to being a picnic area) and decided to perform the super turtle slow scan with the 5x8 coil on the AT Pro. I was running with the iron audio on and could hear all the iron grunting / popping but then this little baby high chirp sang through the iron. About 1/2" deep out pops a 1933 coin from Switzerland! Ultimately I was able to isolate the signal quite well and provided an 82 in T-ID. I know why everyone missed this with their detector - they were going to fast. I can say this as I hit this area myself many, many times with different detectors including the AT Pro. I just needed to go slooooow. Not too far away I found an 1882 IH cent. Almost didn’t dig it as the nail was throwing off the tone in most every direction. However I decided to "iron out" the signal and hit it from multiple angles. "That ironing out" helped me partially isolate a high tone / T-ID. That is when I decided to investigate the signal. Glad I did! Thanks for looking. - Jim
 
That's a sweet Switzerland coin EPL,:thumbup: hmmm wonder how much sweet delicious Swiss chocolate that would've bought in '33:crazy:

I'd like to have some of the German chocolate ice cream we used to buy in Germany. No place I've tried in the USA has the same quality they had. Same name, yes. Quality, no. I watched a you tube video with this Dr. Sircus the other day and he said craving chocolate is a sign of low magnesium. I just thought it was because I liked chocolate. Lol...
 
Jim you are very skilled at metal detecting, nice Indian looks like its been in the grand a wile
 
Very nice finds. :thumbup: Going slow and easy works great for unmasking targets that others have passed over.
