First inland hunt of the year with the Sovereign GT.

[JASONSPAZ1]

Got out on St.Patricks day with the Sovereign GT, and I am about to go back to the same spot.
I have been to this spot many times in the past and I am sure it will continue to produce with under the right conditions. Once May comes around the area will be undetectable due to the massive amount of brush and weed growth. It is smooth coil sailing now with no stubble to bump the coil around. I am sure there is Spanish Silver there and I am going to go find it!
SO far I got this colonial copper ( very corroded and I think it is a George).
A 1903 Barber Dime ( scratched from the rocky soil).
A small buckle, and the handle of an old spoon.

Take Care

Great finds Jason! I use the GT also and love it. I mostly hunt beaches, but after seeing your finds I'm going to have to find a inland spot. I really like finding old stuff. You'll never know who's pockek those coins were in.

You have to use the GT at the old inland spots. It is a top notch land machine and I am glad everyone is focused on the digital land machines and not focused on the Sov GT.
Try this if you want to get the old silver and copper coins first at a site.
Set your disc high ( third or fourth last notch in the max disc setting) accept silver and copper only.
leave notch alone at zero


Also set the manual sensitivity as high as you can to get it to run as smooth as it does in auto mode. Go slow and listen for the quiet high tones. You can go back later with lower disc settings to get the lower conductors such as nickles, foils, gold.
If it is an old spot and you grid your sweeps you will find the old coins right off the bat.

Good luck
