Metal Detecting Camera

Have a new point and shoot camera that I hope to use some while I'm detecting. Recently picked up the Fuji Finepix XP10. It is waterproof, shockproof, dustproof and freezeproof, and shoots 720p video as well. I'm really looking forward to getting back out detecting and using it for some video footage as well as some stills. It's small size and toughness should be ideal for a metal detecting companion. Until next time HH and  keep your coil to the soil.

Not a coin

Well, that item I dug at my father-in-laws house that appeared to be a coin is not a coin on further inspection. Tried a few different methods of cleaning it but no luck. Rescanned it again with my Ace and this time I got a different reading than I was getting the first time. Read as iron this time, so I'm pretty sure I just have a rusted piece of metal that is the shape of a coin. Plan on heading back there soon to the same spot though to make sure I didn't miss what gave the the $1 signal the first time.
Until next time...

I don't like cold weather

Ground is frozen over here in Kentucky. Woke up to snow for the past two days. With temps below or at freezing it will probably be a while before I hit the local river park again. Still have plenty of areas to detect there and always looking for new sites to hit. I'm armed with my new digging tool and ready to go as soon as the weather warms a bit.
Until next time...
