When do you STOP?
Last weekend I was out with The Metal Detectives down in Dorset. Saturday's finds we slow for me. But come Sunday with new land I felt this is it time to make a find. Well I spent a couple of hours wandering around like a lost sheep with not many targets showing. I decided to move to the next field. On approaching the 5 bar metal gate to get into the next field I noticed lots of other detectorists Stop detecting as they passed through the gate. I decided to Carry ON detecting until I was at the gate. Well about 5 foot away from the gate I hit an Iffy signal........ ummm shall I dig it or not????? Well i dug it and to my joy it turned out to be a Bronze Age Spearhead dated around 1500 BC - 800 BC.... Great another first for me with the Garrett AT-Pro.
If in doubt dig it out!!!
