Haha my tabs don't even look that clean when I pull them right off cans lol.

 

[bibelot]

I ran the cheap Dollar tree Sunbeam battery that Steve suggested, dug up coins and a bracelet today, hardly any pull tabs at all.

 

[Stoof-tabsallday]

I'm gonna have to try those batteries!! Anything to find bracelets and coins instead of tabs....

 

[Stoof-tabsallday]

I think I'll run one of my compadres tomorrow. I put it in another thread but my Cibola had me digging all garbage today.
Couldn't be that there was nothing good there...

But seriously ill probably either run one of them or my deleon to change things up a bit...

I seem to agree with the compadre disc circuit way better than the cibola. Time for more bench testing on that baby.... can't stand not being able to understand what it's telling me!!

I'm in the habit of removing the battery regardless the brand. I had a less than stellar hunt this morning, only a wheat back penny for my effort. It's contagious, can't wait to get back out and search again.

Haha your hunt today was better than mine yesterday!! Lol tons of trash and 2 early 80s copper pennies haha.

It happens. Good with the bad.
Love reading posts about the compadre.
Wait until your first gold with it. It hits gold that other detectors just don't even see.
Good luck and happy hunting!!

I got permission to hunt an old farm house. I found another wheat back penny, and more junk.

Lol looks like when I hunted my dad's property. I actually found a sink and what seemed to be a tub on end but buried deep.
He said they used to bury many things that nowadays we are able to throw out for the trash men.

A good compadre day ! I went back to the farm this morning.There are tin tops from something I've never seen before. They squawk like a pull tab on steroids, can't fade them out thumbing the dial. In a half fallen in stone laid root cellar ,under fallen shelving, I found the coin with more of those tin tops.

Somebody eating lunch and throwing a top in the same place every day?

Great find, it's these cans! He hates these cans! lol

Must be the batteries......

 

[bibelot]

They are big tops. I'll go pick one up to post a pic.

 

[bibelot]

My first guess was the bottoms of the old paper oil cans but they are scattered everywhere. There was an old wooden potato crate in the root cellar,don't think they would have oil cans in with their stored potatoes.

may be from a can of shortening....

I forgot to ask what they were from. The guy who gave me permission to hunt it is the son of the farmer that lived there. His father was killed from a tractor accident and his mother moved the family down the road from that farm. He still owns the land, lives on the other side of the block ,has beef cattle, takes hay off from the old farm property. I gave the coin to him, thought he should have it. It bugged me, thinking they could have lost track of it, means more to him than its value.. I hope to find another dollar coin in time. I missed a Royal Sabre on ebay. I'm now thinking of saving up and buying another new Tesoro. This compadre will always have a home here though.
