Great finding the little ones mate but ide be way more more stoked with the big one as I'm sure you are. You'd have to find 46.25 of them little fellas to make up the big one. 46.25 small bits of gold ads up to about 3 or 4 hundred little bits of lead to sort through 
Haha yeah good point BJ.I'm just stoked that i can find the little ones. I believe it takes more skill to find the smaller ones and a good set of ears. Most of the big ones I find are very shallow just about any detector can find them you just got to walk over them

Mate I'll have your hearing ability any day if that's what ends up on the scales :Y: , well done they look fantastic.
Congrats SC75. Very nice indeed. That spot of your just keeps on giving. Cheers
Well done SC75. Little 1? Pmsl. Good onya mate. :lol:
Well, you certainly know how to pick your spots. Something I've not been so good at of late. Kudos to you.
Was lucky enough to find a little patch so I've been hitting it with every detector and coil combo I can and they've all produced.
Initial runs with 5000 with 15 Evo, 12 Evo and 11" Detech
Then got these with the SDC
Then went over with GPZ and 19"
The worst part about patches is they eventually run out but very fun while the gold is coming out.

No I was pretty stoked when I found the 0.16. We get our ears tested every 2 years and every 2 years they are getting worse. I been working with the same mob for 15 years now so they won't be getting any better :N:
Wearing headphones while detecting especially if your a frequent operator for hours on end will damage your hearing long term!
I suffer from a hearing loss in one ear ( birth defect ), work in noisy industries always use hearing protection etc at work, now suffer
from very annoying tinnitus in my good ear?
Use to use headphones in early detecting days but knew it was having Negative effects on my hearing.

Other than the birth defect, i too suffer from "industrial" deafness in one ear (which suffers tinnitus), and had the same issue with h/phones...yet find i can use ear-buds with/out ear muffs without the "pressure" overload i experience when using headphones.
It's not 'always' the 'volume' that does the damage...
YMMV..

i to suffer tinnitus in both ears from firing weapons and blowing stuff up back in the day when ear muffs were not worn
so now depending on where i am i find that without headphones i can not hear the detector talking to me
catch 22 buggered if you do buggered if you dont

Not all 'ball' ammo was used in muskets...many .50cal flintlocks, percussion cap and hammer arms....
Commonly called 'musket' rounds, but not likely...not many 'muskets' were bought over in the early days....and 'flintlocks' designed in the early 1800's with the Winchester Arms lever in 1880's...
