I had the day off yesterday, so I decided to go back to the spot I was at with my daughter last Friday.......started off slow, but as the afternoon wore on interesting stuff started popping up......16th-17th century spur, really old horseshoe halves, etc (see pic).
Then, just before I got back to where I parked, from about 20cm and barely audible (AT Pro, pro-coin mode) I dug up this silver III. Charles (Habsburg, Austro-Hungary) 1-kruetzer from 1712!!  It's a darned good thing I had my Pro-Pointer, because I probably would've never found it at such a depth......!!!

That silver is beautiful!  Did that ring up in the high 80's, low 90's on your AT?

Excellent finds my friend.

That is a sweet coin!! That and some cool relics is a great hunt! Good job!

Nice silver George and some great relics as well. That AT Pro is s fabulous machine.

Killer oldie, congrats!

Sweeeeet coin! Like the spurs too!!

Interestingly the reading was faint and fluttered alot, from high 50s to high 70s with alternating mid-high tone...probably because of the depth.......I almost didn't dig it--I'd previously had some chatter because of the cable every time the coil tuched a small branch or sapling (solved with electrical tape!).  One of the spurs also had the same readings even though I was set at pro-coin (iron discr. at 35!!!).  I guess I'm still getting used to the AT-Pro!!!

Nice old silver.
