As some of you know,I went from my trusty ATP to a Deus. I blew off the dust on the ATP and went out in the backyard this morning,to see if we were still on talking terms with each other. She was running smoothly,and I soon got a good tone,then another,and another! I was out there for 15 minutes and she found 9 coins! 2 Wheaties a 1945 and a 1909 (which I stabbed with the digger):BangHead:,a Clad dime,and quarter,and 4 memorial penny's,and a --------1942 Merc!:thumbsup: I guess the old girl was showing me she still has it in her. Ever since going wireless.,and super light,I can't stand to use headphones with a cord on them. I was running the ATP without headphones,and could hear the tones just fine.

Hey Buddy! Ain't seen ya around for awhile.

I agree ATP "still" has it. All the machines I've had/have and the ATP will do anything ANY of the other have done. I dunno why I bother buying other machines.

Congrats on the oldies. Next time don't stab em! :laughing7:

Yeah,I have a friend that got into Mding last year,and he hasen't found much silver. He has two lots in town,and I told him to look at them,because there was a lot of silver left in the yards of the older houses in town. The first hunt on his lot produced a silver dime for him.:laughing7: I've found a lot of silver hunting local yards,infact I average more silver per hunt on local yards,than I do anywhere else!:thumbsup:
