had a great time with family and friends. got out with Donnie on Saturday morning. I woke up and had an hour before he called and was out at 5:30,I found some iron relics and an old angle ruler. At 7:00 Donnie and I were in the woods hunting the area I found the 60th button. We scoured the woods, finding a good pound of shotgun shells and a few musketballs. We got some old knives, ox shoes and other relics, but no coins or buttons. With an hour left we hit an old road, we had hit a few times on the way back to the truck. his first hole turned up 2 wheaties. I concentrated on the road, working it slow. The bigger button was on the side of the old road along with a small button. i found a small musketball farther down the trail and then picked up the gold plated button and the other in the same hole. i noticed anything deeper than 4" gave me a broken up signal, so i dug anything that sounded remotely good. This paid off. i guess the ground is real tough and since we usually move thru this section fairly fast, we had missed these finds. i went back today for a half hour and used 15Kz only and found the musketball. this freq. seemed to work better in the tough soil. I was psyched, since i don't fnd many colonial buttons. Have a good one.
