Yesterday I went to my favorite local park to dig clad. Park employee requested assistance in finding cutoff valves for the sprinkler system on three of their ball fields. Was able to find two of the three but the third one just would not show up. The guy that appeared to be in charge of the work told me that I could detect anywhere in the park including the ball fields as they knew that I took care of their turf.
I did dig up a bit over five bucks in clad before the evening ball crowd showed up.
Today I decided to go to the beach. Took the Sovereign GT this time instead of the Excalibur. I usually only use the GT for dirt fishing. I did not recharge the battery after yesterdays outing and it only lasted 7.5 hours today. But that was enough for this old man.
I found one ring today. It is a coin ring and it came out of the dirt with the coin shining a pretty yellow. My heart rate went up just a little until I wiped the sand out of and off the ring. JUNK. The coin is a French 5 centimes coin. Beautiful coin but not what I had hoped. Ended the day with $3.95 in clad and a bag of bottle caps, pull tabs, sunglasses etc.
Yep Metal Detecting is Hard Work but it sure is fun.
