Probably silence without DT activated.

I don’t own a MInelab unit.

The spike at 25 kHz did remain. It was evidently a constant outside source of EMI. I should have done some pre video testing, but just did it on the spur of the moment. A more EMI free spot would have been better. Thanks for watching.

I made a Post with a video link to my off the cuff frequency read out of the Legend in Gold Field & BE modes using the Versa's EMI Preview Screen. The consistent 25 kHz spike was evidently from a constant outside EMI source. Nothing even close to conclusive but interesting. I've got to get a better camera!

I had the idea to use the EMI Preview screen on the Versa to look at the Legend's new BE & Gold Field Modes. Nothing conclusive but interesting none the less. The consistent 25 kHz spike is evidently constant outside EMI. I need to redo this in an EMI free place.

More great finds! The 1900-O dime is not common, particularly in higher grades (F-12 and above). I hesitate to give my opinion of the grade as photos typically don't show enough detail, but you can try your hand here.
It’s about G-4.

Thanks for the detailed reply. I was looking at the notched base & knew it was hafted on to some sort of handle.

Gen D is a motion All Metal mode with adjustable tone pitch breakpoint & TID. Great concept but I have never been able to get it to function anywhere near as good as the Anfibio's very powerful motion Disc modes.
-
We will see how close it might be related to the Anfibio/Impact Gen D modes.

This is encouraging but should have been provided at release. Detailed descriptions & application is always needed/helpful. I'm sure glad Nokta is so responsive to their users.

Welcome from East Texas.

Is that type of flint native to your area or was it a trade item?
The Indians here in East Texas had Salt to use as a trading commodity. I don’t know what all they exchanged it for but when I was a teenager I found nice point made of black Obsidian. The closest deposits are in far West Texas & New Mexico. To find a spear/atlatl point like yours in perfect condition is amazing.

Continued working the scraped areas Saturday afternoon. No more Halves but another pair of Wheat Cents. The coin finds are still trending older. 1894 & 1904 IHP, 1899 & 1904 Liberty Head/V Nickels and a well worn 1889 Liberty Seated Dime and a nice condition 1900 O Barber Dime.
That is the third Seated dime from this site. I'm also very pleased with the IHPs & V Nickels as I don't dig them that often in decent condition as these are. I'm just about to the point I will have to wait for the rest of the scraped areas to dry out to where I can walk without sinking and the hole not immediately fill with water.

Then why did they purchase the company & rights to it's product R & D?

People are odd critters & you can't change them. You just have to take them as they are.
-
That is an incredible find.
-
That is a very nice way to display them.

That would be an extraordinarily heavy bullet at 770+ grains!

I got back to the site for a couple of hours after work Friday. I took the Legend with the LG15/6inch coil to work into the root tangles & depressions that the 11 inch coil on the Versa had to graze over. I did dig another "pair" of Wheat Cents, 1920 & no date, 1 foot apart from each other.
Also 2 singles of Silver. On a pad of dirt sitting on top of the brush & timber that had been pushed in to fill the swim pool a first year, 1916 Mercury Dime in very nice detail. No D mint mark. I have had no prior luck hunting what has been pushed into the pools, you can hardly walk on it without your foot going thru and digging in it is impossible. That was a lucky find if there ever was one. No telling how many good targets & nice coins were pushed into that tangled tomb. The second single Silver was on the skinned off walking path. I must have just flat missed it the day before. A very worn 1901 Barber Half Dollar. That makes 4 halves from this site. I will go back this evening. Got to get some chores done & tend the garden a little.

Wonder how hot that was once upon a time for the metal to appear as it does. Nice spherical shape, no streaks & looks very pure.
-
I sure would like to see Garrett bring forward some of Whites great features & adjustability. An AT Vi would be really something.

Dedication is paying off for you. Nice hunting.

They look like galvanized knock out plugs from electrical junction boxes. Are they magnetic?
