Maiden voyage of new CZ3D...

Took a while but couldn't get out due to family problems...Went out after supper for about 1.5 hrs before the rain...Got a good deep signal and ended up with a bottle cap still on piece of jagged bottle. Got to wear gloves even in hot weather...About five feet from the bottlecap got a medium depth signal which turned out to be a 1901 Barber quarter in excellent shape..About 6 inches deep...15 minutes later got another good deep signal which turned out to be 10 inch 1914 crusty wheatie..Area was very junky so hunted in advanced mode for depth with max disc. Ran it at 6 sens. and ran stable and swinging a clad dime in front of coil must have got it at about a foot...Not bad as its not a Los Banos but the new version...from F.T.....

Dan, be gentle but firm

iron can be a good target on the CZ3 but very slow reactivity and not good in iron you will have to use the small coil and hope for the best

If you don’t dig it, then how are you going to know what you’re missing!
How can you have your pudding if you don’t eat your meat!

I think he meant "enhanced" mode!

Good save/s Dan - gotta love finding Barbers of any kind!

My bad on mode, thanks for clarification imagine it will get me more silver in near future...Had to smile on that on the iron post as this area was really trashy and no iron dug..
Still remember with original CZ6 over 20 years ago that rusty nail..iron problem took some time to figure out. Guess it pays to know your unit...
As far as the bottle cap being dug it was deep but covered a lot of area so should have known but it took me a while to get a good signal so sometimes I dig the iffies...

Way to go, Dan!

Doesn't sound like you need to hope for the best at all.

Looking forward to reading about your future hunts. Lots of "old dogs" can still hunt

Makes a big difference, for sure. Pulling a nice Barber quarter out of trash is no small deal. Nicely done.

I think you did the right thing. I recently dug a similar 'wide area' signal, and it was indeed a bottle cap...and a nice Walker half...and a sharp 1909 wheat.

Welcome back to the CZ world, and look forward to hearing about more great finds!

HH,

"Dang...those broken bottles with screwcaps still on...THE biggest danger to our hands!
I have lots of video moments when digging and finding these...
I'm even finding complete bottles...intact!!"

Dan,Dan,The CZ Man!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Congrats!

I remember when I first got my CZ70, that machine change my detecting world opened up many new doors and many new deep silver coins

Nice find, Barber still on my wish list, but little harder to come by in Canada....

Yeah, I should have known that before I typed a stupid post...
