    English Military Button?

    Found a button in the bush today. Any ideas on history? I know its an english coat of arms. Nothing special? I can make out Smith-birwinchaw. I think... The rest is unintelligble.

    Yeah, I'm running about 15-24. I get a signal and then i try to pinpont but no matter how deep i go it never reads as getting closer on the depth indicator. And It seems to be buzzing in random spots in pinpoint mode. Are these false signals? Thanks.

    Really keen to buy my first metal detector. Should I buy just buy the gold pack for $850.00 or go with the relic coil as well for an extra $140.00? Is the relic coil necessary? Or can the gold coil do the job for both gold & relics?? Thanks.
