F350Platinum Posted August 11, 2023 Share Posted August 11, 2023 Incredible hunt, those are finds we in the USA could only dream of. I agree with RickUK that your detector is finely tuned. Are you using V1.1? What program are you using? Much of your trash looks like musket balls and bullet shells, interesting in themselves. Hunting relics or war, or both? Sorry to ask so many questions but this is the most fascinating post in quite a while. We don't get to see many finds from over there. ?Often for good reasons. ? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We don't get to see many finds from over there. ?Often for good reasons. ? thanks F350 , I am using the "old" 0.71 version as it still works very well for me ?. I use the SENSITIVE factory prog with very little modifs , I have only changed from 3 to 5 tones and PWM to SQUARE . I dont need to set a notch as almost all conductivities can be good targets here , may be except for very low ones like the foils range . I will try V1.1 later when I have more time available btw . 90/100 of the trash over here is 1st WW trash . Not 18or 17th musket balls but 1st WW bullets shells . I am not a 1st WW specialist but I have friends who are "militaria" hunters , they hunt 1st WW buckles , buttons , etc ... ( French or German ) . Probably similar to what can be found on your US civil war battlefields ... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've learned a lot from V1.1 beach hunting and will try to "translate" some of that to the Relic program I will create. Again a learning curve ? I should have got some summer relic permissions but it's been too hot here. ? Instead I have been enjoying onshore wind from the water ? Looks like you have "Mastered" the WS6! ?I want to use mine more, and with the new version there is much to learn. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have been there since 2002 or 2003 , and I have done dozens of outings here and I am quite surprised to still find targets in this field 20 years after ... The conditions are not ideal because the field is not yet plowed , and it was sometimes difficult to sweep the coil in the cut wheat . I was using my DeuS2 WS6 running in the "old" 0.71 version but honestly I dont really need to update as 0.71 works very well for me and as I dont need sophisticated settings I only found 1st WW trash during the first part of the outing . However as I was going to leave I heard a very clean medium signal which was a very nice medieval silver coin . Very nice find ... This is a feudal coin which is much more difficult to id than a royal type because there are so many existing types . It is dating from between 14 to 16th century I think .. May be a foreign coin Anyway happy with this very old coin coming back from the past .. A few pics : A stormy weather : The medieval coin : my trusty Deus2 WS6 : A few better pics from the coin : And the trash : I'm sitting here having a cup of Joe and musing over the trash or lack thereof that you dug.And I thought to myself heck I would be more than happy to dig a five gallon bucket full of said trash just to walk about such a beautiful and historic place like that and dig a small handful of such amazing and ancient finds...Congrats! 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NCtoad Posted August 11, 2023 Share Posted August 11, 2023 Wow! How awesome it must be to be able to hunt in the back yard (or is it the front yard), of a medieval castle! Congratulations on all those great finds! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
