My huntin buddy, ksopie, came by and picked me up and we headed up to the curb strip / and lots I just received permission to hunt.

It was HOT HOT and I must have dug 20 holes (clad) BEFORE I finally got a good strong tone 12/45, 7" hmm, better dig that. Out comes the 1917 Merc. In really good shape, MADE MY DAY. Also found a VERY COOL old skeleton key. That thing is HUGE, almost 6" long.

As you can see, found several coins, old car, ksopie found a 1906 Indian. All in all, Great hunt with a Great friend, Doesn't get better then that. (Could have been cooler, lol).

I ran the CTX3030 on Coins, Ferrous coin, +3, fast on.

In the land of "Down Under"
your vehicles have the drivers side, on the right side of the vehicle,
or on the curb side of the street,
unlike here in the states, where the driver side is on the left side....
or on the street side.
I would think that "down under"
might have twice as many "drops" in those curbs....
