Why you should dig ALL the 'iffy' signals...........

Was on the way home for lunch today, pulled in to a dairy to pick up some milk and had a momentary lapse of concentration when pulling out and had a bit of a vehicle bingle................... nothing serious, nobody hurt (except my pride!). Thank goodness for insurance, the  4wd will be out of action for a couple of weeks for a new front end and guard so I was feeling a bit , shall we say, down this afternoon. Carol's answer to that little conundrum was 'lets go treasure hunting", so after work we headed out in her car to 'the hill' in 'the park' that we have been over and over again and again. I really didn't expect to find much, so decided to just dig everything that wasn't registering as iron. Most of these signals came up in what I call the 'iffy' range, pull tabs, jumpy signals, is it-isn't it and so on. Well my spirits were raised when I dug the first locket, looks like gold plate on brass, underneath it was the filligree jewelery. Next was the stg silver horse locket, I couldn't believe it, it was such a jumpy signal on the F4, it was quite deep though at around 9". The rest of the coins with the exception of the 'goldies' came in as pull tab signals. The old lighter was jumping from iron to silver, the brass button couldn't decide if it was brass or steel and the Hong Kong 50c was a pull tab one minute and a copper coin the next................. LESSON LEARNED............I will dig all the "iffy" signals from now on!
