My doctor said I should get outside and exercise more often. I think I’ll just stay in bed and watch more Jersey Digs videos.

Not a lot of finds, but it's better than sitting in the couch wondering what you could've found. So great job! 👍 The piece you think is a lighter part is actually a part/half of a drawing compass.

@JerseyDigs 4 ай бұрын

Thanks! Any day outside is better than one couch surfing. I'll leave the rainy days for that lol. Halfof my time was spent on areas I haven't touched yet but I just had to see what was hiding. And that was the info I was looking for! Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge.

Nice tomback button, I'd put my sensitivity at 30 unless you have really high emi. And you swing really fast so you might want to increase your swing speed up to 4. You'll still get good depth. But you can't find what isn't there Jersey. Some fields look better than they are . Good hunt though.

@JerseyDigs 4 ай бұрын

Thank you, Kelly. I was swinging pretty quickly now that you say it, guess I could afford to raise it a bit or slow myself down. Half of this permission has been covered in corn stalks since I've started hunting it, hoping they come down soon. Until then. Happy hunting!

@@JerseyDigs I only noticed because I found a couple at a ghost town recently and I didn't notice they were anything until I scrubbed some of the dirt off of the face. It looks just like the ones I found that were single letter stamps

What part of Jersey do uou hunt. I'm not asking about your sites most old farms in N.J. date back to the Rev War time period. I'm just curious because I'm down in Ocean County although I also hunt a lot out in Burlington and Camden County out towards Philly and down in Atlantic County including the shore towns from Ocean to A.C, Basically everywhere around and through the pine barrons. Back in the '80's I did alot of hunting with my dad up in Monmouth around all of those farms around there.

@JerseyDigs 3 ай бұрын

Hey Jean, I mostly detect Monmouth and Northern Ocean Counties. There is certainly a lot of history hiding everywhere in Monmouth!

Funny, I was VERY between the Legend and Double Score but ultimately I felt the Legend was the better choice plus I got it for a steal. I feel like the DS is a baby Legend that is more simple to get up and running on. I wouldn't say I'll get one in the near future but there is a chance I do at some point. Thanks for watching.

Hey Jersey! How’d you get this permission?

@JerseyDigs 4 ай бұрын

Through the neighbor luckily! The original perm was all fill dirt and nothing to be had. As soon as I walked out into this field my first signal was an 1846 large cent. Finally met the owner back in December and said we can go wherever. Lot of ground to cover! Id say we've only hit about 20% of what's here so far.
