I'm curious. Why does the title of your post say clad? I was expecting something completely different.  🙂

Old clad, 100+ years from now zincolns might be sought after 🙂

Heres a few from today. Small button, cap and top to old tube maybe some lotion or paint. has a lead or pewter with brass screw cap, large cent (no readable date), another possible kg half penny but also in tough shape, 43 war nickel (first find of the day) and a nie 1773 seated dime.

Used the Tejon with 8x9 concentric, handled the small iron like a champ, good targets had nice tones and easy to pick out even the dime that was 9" down.

Good on you and the Tejon.

No such thing as "old clad". Clad coins generally didn't come about until the 1960s.

One mans treasure is another mans clad.

That is true that there is no Old Clad because clad by definition is laminated metals. Nickels, Pennies and even Zinc Pennies are not clad either. Just many people equate clad as lost pocket change.
