Did laundry, went to my grandsons 3 year birthday party, then moved a refrigerator for my other son, then went detecting. Was in the woods 45 minutes from 5 pm and ran into these. At first I thought it may be a can top as I had dug several of them already in the immediate area. Was a 28, 29 & 30 with solid high tone, but the 30 threw me off as that usually indicates a can top or flattened can. Checked the area with the X-Pointer and had nothing on or near the surface so pinpointed with the SE and had a large signal, not tight, but a solid 29 VID. So I said to myself, "Well it's probably a can, but you better dig it." Nicked it with the trowel and being it's almost dark now I at first thought it was a can top, except I saw the eagle. Checked the hole with my X-Pointer and had something in the sidewall. Boom, out pops the Washington. In the woods until dark again scouring the area.
And the deer horn (antler) is a first.
Have a great time out there and Happy Hunting!!!
