Nice FFA Penn, I found one the other day what's neat about the Design is the circle part is a ear of corn cross cut.

[@FindingAmerica]

Congrats on finding yours and I just learned about that being an ear of corn around the edges. Very cool! Always appreciate you watching, Ronald and take care! ATB Greg

Hope you're 100% soon Greg! When I first started detecting a few years ago I dug an unremarkable find near the railroad tracks. Threw it in my pouch to dispose of when I got home. My son happened to be looking through the trash finds and said "hey Pop, I think this is old"... after cleaning and some research, it turned out to be a first-year Carhartt's overall button. Likely lost by a railroad worker in the late 1800s. Lesson learned-never toss a find until you know it's trash!

[@FindingAmerica]

Thanks KD and that is a very good lesson to learn. Sometimes even the trash can turn out to be an amazing find. Great find with that early button! Appreciate you watching and take care! ATB Greg

Greg, I sure hope the heat did not get you sick last week. We hope you are on the mend? Loved the Easter bunny bin, knife and spoon and the meter cover. We have yet to find a harmonica reed. The FFA pin was in excellent condition, my favorite that you recovered. I enjoyed your river front clip, the geese separating the dew off the river was flying was awesome. No idea on the mystery piece. Great hunt.👍👏😀

I certainly have a ton of them! I'm sure you'll get one out there, Michael. They sometimes ring in at odd numbers but the long signal will often give them away. Appreciate you watching and take care! ATB Greg

Very nice, Greg. Those padlocks are so cool! Would you share on what you had your recovery set at for this hunt? And also, do you change your recovery setting often, depending on the sight?

[@FindingAmerica]

Thanks Orion! I have been hunting a lot in the all terrain fast program which has the recovery set pretty high at 7. It really works well for me and I can't get enough of using it at my hard hit spots. It works VERY well along with the audio theme set to DEPTH. You might want to give it a try.

[@jkeys49]

I’m curious Had the Manticore for a couple of months, just got my M9. So my question is this, what makes you prefer all terrain fast??

[@FindingAmerica]

I love the program because it is absolutely amazing at separating and it's amazing how much it has pulled from some very hard hunted ground. Using the audio theme in Depth with it just makes it even more responsive. Give it a try at some of your hard hunted spots. Appreciate you watching and take care! ATB Greg.

[@riddlesrelics1278]

cool hunt one question u said the halo effect what is that

[@FindingAmerica]

Thanks Randy and the halo effect is a chemical reaction between the minerals in the soil and the metallic content of the lost item. After many years, the soil will turn a darker color around the metal item and you will notice it when you are digging. when you see it, you'll know you are onto something old and something made of a decent metal; copper, bronze, brass, etc. The metal detector also picks up on the halo which allows it to detect the item easier as well as deeper. The longer the item has been buried the larger the area of halo there will be.

[@stevenstrempke8883]
