You are 100% correct, its lazyness on my part, I can appreciate your concerns when hunting a civil war site.
Here in the UK it can be very differen to the US, when you dig your first iron hob nail from a Roman boot it's quite exciting, there are literally thousands on a busy site, plus lots of nuts, bolts and iron plate from WW1 and WWII, you have to cherry pick the positive targets in between the junk or you will be all day digging Iron.
That's why the Deus is so popular over here, it can deal with the bad and find the good.
