Have been loving my new CTX - its allowed me to relic hunt in iron infested parks that were anurism-inducing from falsing when I would hunt with my Explorer SE Pro.
The silver has long been mostly sniped out but there is still a lot of (what I think are awesome relics, though not really of any monetary value out there)
Anything with a name/date on it really gets my blood pumping.
One of the most exciting digs I had was an accidental discovery of a small bottle dump. I dug down to retrieve a rusted enameled pot about 10 inches down - (thought it was a ww2 helmet! After bringing it up I noticed a lot of shards of glass, and just as I was about to fill up the hole on impulse I checked the hole again, and saw an edge of a weird old bottle in the dirt...I carefully excavated it and kept finding more and more. The last time I was this full of adrenaline was my first relic hunt with Mark and Ron
I recently ordered a bottle probe so I can start hunting these properly!
Here are some pics of my keepers from my last 3 hunts...
Thanks for looking and as always HH!

The personalized pocket watch back is really awesome! It's so personal...to me, that's what it's all about. That's the type of find that changes metal detecting from a hobby, to a lifestyle. Nice score on the old bottles too!
