The last two days where fantastic weather here in upstate NY. I was invited to hunt at a farm and also hit a nearby town Green with churches dated 1842 at one end. In the two days using the F70, I got 7 wheaties all at the farm along with the 1914 barber and the the 39 mercury. At the green under the same tree at which I found a barber last year got this barber, 1912. By the sidewalk near the church got the 1891 IH, and was going to skip the nickle as it was only 2 inches deep in some gravel. Dug it anyway and got my first V Nickel, (in very bad shape, 189?) I suppose thats a inventory tag of some sort. It was just a great few days-that I didnt want to end- I am going back next week, thats for sure!

My First V nickel and more!

Nice looking collection. I have a friend who really isn't that interested in detecting but tagged along on a construction site hunt with me the other night. His first coin, ever dug with a metal detector, my CZ3 D was a 1900 V nickel. It took him a while to realize just how cool that was.
I told him how long it took me to ever find one. They are always fun.

The past week or two I went to like a 15 disc, and pushing the sense, (even to 90). At the farm the 2F tone really did seem to get me some depth. When I get a favorable indication I use the SL, to give me a closer look so to speak; it seems to clear things up although I cant seem to use SL full time, for me it gets too noisy. I use the same set up at the park and sometimes with a 3 tone. Today near the churches I got a 1910 wheat back and an 1886 Indian Head, as well as a gold plated religious medallion. I havent yet purchased a small coil although I hear I should. Trying to beat the impending snow and cold, Im going back to the farm, tommoro. Thanks, Curt o
