Last fall I gave my mother my AT Pro. Since then she's been making good use out of it. Last fall she dug a beautiful 1916d Merc and now she pulls a 1854 $1 gold coin out a yard that we have been hitting HARD for years.

She said it was coming up low 50's and was 4-5" deep.

Wow, congratulations! Nice find indeed. I always dig those mid tones as long as the VDI number is not jumping all over the place. Heck I'll dig the high 30s VDI but once again as long as the number is consistent.

Wow! What a find! I guess you'll be getting another At pro for yourself if you haven't already. Lol.
