You shouldn't have much competition in Brawley!  Great new area to work.  GaryC/Oregon Coast

Great finds and I think you are going to find some other very nice finds there also.

Don't forget to dig everything if it is a strong signal as it may turn out to be gold.

Good luck and happy hunting.

Looks to me to be a 10-12 acre area that had maybe 60 small units.

That's quite a haul for one day's detecting.  How much of the area have you covered, and which coil were you using?  Also, is the piece of metal with the '49' part of a motorcycle license plate?

I have covered maybe 1/10 of the area. I am using the stock 11, I am using Park 1 , iron on, iron volume set at 1, 50 tones, 6 recovery, 0 Iron bias. The small plate is a 1949 California registration plate. I went back today and hunted in an area that was covered in small demolition debris, slow going. Wheats and 4 silvers today, the charm was eyeball. I believe it will produce more silver but will be a tough nut.
