Another hunt this morning.

In a hard hunted site.
Last silver to come from this side of road for me was a war nickel,,I dug with Nokta Impact using small elliptical when testing it. And the Spanish bit in the pic was dug approx 11"-14" from where I dug this war nickel back ealier in the year.
There is no telling how many times I have swept this Spanish bit in the past using other detectors and coils including Deus and LF coils, and the round HF Deus coil too.
Ground is drier than previous hunts here.
Could have helped me find this bit.

If folks would have heard this signal's tone on the Deus in full tones,,,I don't think anyone would have expected silver. Not even me.lol
I was surprised.
And the depth of this bit?
A mere 4-4.5" deep.

Site is loaded with iron and square nails.
A broken signal and barely audible.

Dug some other things too, but these were dug around 150 ft behind this small patch where the bit was found.
Check out the washer(nonferrous) on the nail, that is how it come out of the ground. Orientation though unknown.
Funny thing in this small patch I have dug 2 extremely old pocket knives previously.
Could that have been a clue,,for old timers sitting around a whittling or whatever.

I am really liking this coil,,,,a must have IMO for older sites,,sneaky little devil.
But one has to be paying attention, not all nonferrous goes ringy dingy.

Got to go back this afternoon later.

Deer hunting for me, just doesn't turn me on anymore like detecting does.


Little better pic of bit.

Thanks folks.

Gonna fire up today and try again, weather is 10 plus perfect.
Gotta get the Impact back in there with the little football coil now that I have it back from loan to use.
