Once again I attempted to make a video from today's hunt, it was windy and I was by myself, It is hard to hold a camera a detector and try to dig at same time, so go easy on me....lol

thanks for sharing. I've often thought about recording an onsite video of me hunting. But I can't get my brother to lay down his detector and pick up the camera! :rofl: Seriously, nice job! HH Randy


P.S. for some of the folks viewing this who may not be familiar with target signals, the double beep (concentric coil) on the IH was a good indication it was going to be shallow.

the thing I LOVE about field hunting is old coins are rarely more than 2-3 inches deep because the fields are worked every year, therefore they never sink down far at all, and all signals are nice and clear.
Plus everytime they work the fields the iron gets moved around uncovering more targets that were previously masked, sites like this will give up goodies for years to come
 
I know what you mean about hunting them for years to come. I've got a couple old fair sites that have been corn or bean fields for the past 100 years. And I've been hitting them since the early 70's. I still find coins. But not like it use to be. With minimum tillage, the soil just doesnt' get turned over like it use to. The good part of that is the coins being stirred up today are only going to be as deep as the disc goes. The bad news is that those coins that were plowed down a foot deep or more (when they still plowed) are probably not going to get turned up again. I agree that sitting for a year doesn't give a coin much time to move around. But it seems to me that where a coin "ends up" will depend on where it was sitting when the soil was tilled. And. whether it sticks to a clod or falls into the bottom of the hole with the soil. Fortunately we don't have to worry about the different "depth theories" when hunting with the X-Terra! It'll find them, regardless! JMHO HH Randy
