Now that the catchy thread title sucked you in let me explain....
I have been wanting to give the Nox a run for sometime now. I have about two years under my belt running the CTX (87 Nerds Detector) and am very efficient with her regardless of what a few people think
Deal came up on a Nox 800 and I scooped her up.
I hunt regularly with 2 buddies and the one got a permission last week. He did some research on the history and apparently its one of the areas original settlers homes. People that actually help name the town had it built along the river. He hunted it some with his 800 last week and found a few IHP's.
I got my 800 in the mail Wednesday. We all met up at the permission and got right to it. Things started off slow, dark was approaching very quickly since putting the clocks back. Then it was lightning in a bottle......
First I popped on the IHP, I did get a wheat little before this. Moving around
a little more I popped the Barber dime. We have been hunting together now almost a year and I have been the first to pop a silver on every hunt together. My partners and I have a joking/fun time with each other.... Every time we meet up I have to empty my pouch and turn my pockets inside out (just checking). LOL its all fun. So anyhow, I got a descent signal on the 800
and I couldnt believe what I was looking at. I still can't. A minute later my buddy that got the permission had me come over and check a signal. I said yep I would absolutely dig that! AND THATS WHAT HE DID! ARE YOU KIDDING ME!!!! REALLY !!!!!????? AN 1824 SHILLING!!!!! RIDICULOUS!!!!
So as the title says I did find a (roached) Draped Bust Large Cent but it is ALL the location/permission. Its my only hunt with the 800 so far and didnt expect much on my first hunt, I have to admit I like it more than I thought I would. Also, I will eventually hit that site with the CTX too. Thanks for checking out the thread guys. HH DD
