Well I guess that I did a pile O digging on Saturday.
I spent around 5 hours at a popular spot.
And you guessed it, trash was found and removed.
The outright junk that people toss.
The recyclables that they drop or lose.
And the bling that ends up in the dirt.
Some of it does get the heart pumping though when it first sees the light of day.
To keep with tradition here I am going to show this as my before pic of the day.
And the after shot.
Take note of the young queen nickle on the end.
Because that is what this post is all about.
On a side note I am still using the Excal and getting reacquainted with it.
I always say that you should dig all repeatable signals.
With the Excal though since I hunt in discrimination mode it is more often then not those missed signals that I am digging.
The first pass over our modern steel clad coins gives a burp/fart and then a total null on sound.
Those are indications that it's time to get out the pinpointer for surface drops.
At least that is how it is working for me.
OK now that 1960 nickle had just been recovered when not 10' later I got another identical signal.
This one was only 2" deep but what the heck, dig it anyways right?
And boy am I happy that I did.
My first platinum ring.
