The AT Gold Using 5" x 8" Coil Got Some Great Finds Yesterday :twodetecting:

The Garrett guys headed out for a great fall hunt in the woods. The bright colors of the leaves are just spectacular! I was going to mention no bugs, but my buddy stepped on a hornet's nest and got stung a couple times....one below his eye. Luckily, he wall all right and just kept on hunting.

Here's my portion of the finds. That 5" x 8" coil is very sensitive to very tiny targets. It was easily getting coin sized targets in the 5-6"+ range.

I know that the AT Gold was designed with gold hunting in mind, especially small nuggets, but it also seems to be hot on silver also. I have found several silver targets since I have been using the AT Gold. It shares the same VDI numbers in my soil for various targets compared with the AT Pro. The separation of targets is awesome using that small 5" x 8" DD Coil. here are some silver coins I got. That 1922 nickel was a nice find. And go figure, I was just about to put my 3 silver coins into my ultrasonic cleaner, when they fell out of the small cup they were in, hit the floor and scrambled. I managed to retrieve two of them.

I got a very loud audio on this old vintage ladies rouge container. I managed to find out that it was from the 1950's. And what a surprise.....a toe ring in the woods.

Here are some interesting shell casings I dug up. The large one was buried at about 5 inches in the dirt near a root. I have to research it a little further. I am wondering if perhaps it was dropped from an aircraft, as we have an airport in the center of Edmonton which has been there for a very long time.

A nice Chevrolet car logo was out in the woods....it was kind of bent when I found it. I have no idea on it's date.......

Below are the finds from my buddy using his GTI 1500. he got a very nice old 1922 car licence plate and two silver dimes in the same hole.

A great day it was.......
 
Great outing for both of you.
Nice silver finds:thumbup:

Nice hunt!:garrett::detecting:Cool finds!:clapping:
Thanks for sharing!:biggrin:Happy Hunting!:)
 
Nice finds. I found three old soda bottles back in April or May of this year. Back when they had a bottling plant in most towns, they put the name of the town on the bottles. I have one from March-1953 and the other I can't remember the date. One of the three had been broken some, but I kept it anyway. It's supposed to be 44 degrees in the morning and 41 degrees Sunday and I hope to do some dirt fishing these days myself. I have permission to metal detect this old spring near my local church and have held off due to the heat and the snakes, but Sunday before church I intend to hit it around daylight. I should have enough time to do a little dirt fishing and get to Sunday school by 10 am. If I can just avoid the deer hunters Saturday and Sunday, everything will be okay. I have my hunter orange skull cap and vest. Maybe I should write old fat guy on my carcass just in case. lol
I've had permission to metal detect around this old house about 15 miles from here for about 6 months, but tomorrow is the first day I may be able to check it out. The owner has asked me several times if I was going to metal detect, but I have just been to wore out to hit it and I'm hoping tomorrow will be a good day and Sunday also.
