Used the F75 LTD at Civil War water hole camp.

Hope you all enjoy the video!

Spectacular! And your naration is 'spot-on'. How you analyze targets is exacting............yes, most targets will not properly ID in nail-infested sites. Those carved lead gaming-tokens are highly collectible...... are of major historical significance.......... pose significant value....... and 'paint' a true story of an 'era'. The silver Trime is very nice. . . . and probably utilized right along with the gaming tokens. Hard to tell in the video..... but those musket balls appear to be of the .54 or .69-cal type. It still fascinates me to see such a huge open field of 'nothing' ......................... yet......................the detector paints a COMPLETELY different picture. Your display case is priceless..... is a major educational tool, , , and collectively.... represents a piece of our National history that may (someday) be forgotten. (((And we call this: "just a hobby"))). Also...... in this display-case presentation..... collectively....... it has MUCH greater value over (vs.) each piece individually. Keep it growing.....and at a rapid rate!

Steve you always make great videos. I've always wondered what camera you use for the videos?

Thanks Tom, your exactly right each and every artifact dug paints a wonderful picture describing the era in which it was lost. There is so much information given when recovering and documenting these finds which is so important in my opinion. The F75LTD is comparatively a different beast than the MXT (that I also use) and it is showing it's full potential that would meet any serious relic hunters expectations. Thanks again and I really enjoy reading the forums which has helped me gain better insight on these machines.

The MXT is one spectacular machine with it's ability to be 'quiet' in the iron. It ID's iron in superior fashion. But.......at the cost of .......... being TOO quiet in the iron. This unit becomes 'masked' in the iron too quickly; whereby, the F75/T2 platform will show their true performance capabilities in the iron infested sites. ..........The MXT and F75/T2 were invented by the same person.

Great video Steve! May I use it on my site?

Steve,

ALWAYS great to see your latest production. Thanks for the LTD audio this time. You have provided valuable insight into the capability that this fine machine has in the right hands and being able to hear the unique "language" of the machine is priceless.

My favorite things to find are items that have a story to them. It still tickles me to think about all of the stuff thats been sitting for decades just inches down.

VERY good video Steve!!! I could sit and watch hours of you detecting and digging those old campsites. I live in Savannah TN which is 9 miles from Shiloh. Grant and the Union army occupied this town before and after the battle of Shiloh. I have stumbled across a few campsites here in town. It added a new dimension to my detecting obsession. I keep mine plaqued according to location for future reference. Outstanding work Steve. Put us up a few more to watch! Thanks. Kevin
