Headed out this morning for a hunt. There was a weather advisory out for a good dump of snow in Edmonton, so I hunted anyway. It was a comfortable -7C / 19.4F to detect. The ground was pretty hard, so I brought along my pick-ax. There were some good signals to be had!

My very first signal was repeatable 83. I was expecting a modern penny, but to my surprise, a 1929 silver dime popped out at about 2 inches deep. Next 2 coins came from the same hole....a measured 9" deep. Out popped a 1918 large cent and a 1935 small cent. Up higher on the slop popped out a 1933 small cent. It was quite a surprise to get these finds today, It was a week ago that I got that gold ring in the same area. Got to go back again. :)
 
Nice hunt! However at 19 degrees I'll pass :rofl:
 
You have a valid point. :) I could be eating fresh animal products in the form of jerky, detecting and enjoying Mother nature.

Took my at max out for its maiden voyage in the woods. Found many targets. Shotgun shells, buck shot balls, bullet slugs etc. 1st time with new machine, it will take some getting used to. But I really like it. Seems a bit heavier than my minelab safari. So far so good. It ground balanced quite well. Very good soil in MA. Still lots of frost and muddy conditions in the cornfields. HH
