Very large field with a lot of dead air (no signals). First find after 15 minutes, the ever present shotgun brass... that always sounds like a bad (iffy) button. A couple of lock thingamagiggies, 3 great big plow points (I chucked them over in the woods, seeing how they weigh 5 lbs a piece); and finally, just before I got skunked, did managed to pull this 1865 Indian head penny, and right after that I dug this half of a barrel spigot. So after swinging for 2 1/2 hours, I was happy with my meager finds. Sometimes its just nice to get out and swing.
