Howdy. I am new to the hobby. Just got my first detector. BH Tracker IV. Found this at an old ice harvesting plant in Pennsylvania. It was a site served by a small gauge railroad to ship the ice out after harvest. This was my first hunt ever. Found it about two inches down. I think it is a piece of door hardware from a boxcar. Can't make out too much of the identifiers on it yet. Definitely says Q & C co, Chicago. Going to clean it up and research it a little more.
I have also done some very quick tot lot hunting while my son played on the swings. Maybe 15 minutes total. Found 3 lincoln cents, all pre 1982, so coppers, and one was a 1945 wheat. Only found one pop top!
I love this machine. I fear I may be spoiled though by my first find. Going to be hard to top.
