I had a cheap worthless mp digital and was sick of everything being gold/ coins and then ending up as trash . So I saved and saved for an AT pro . I got in about five months worth of heavy detecting with the pro and found many things in my hunted out little town . I found cap guns an old RR switch lock $75 in change around 60 wheat pennies a bunch of old bullets and casings other odds and ends .Here is the best of my season . coins silver 047.JPG coins silver 048.JPG coins silver 049.JPG coins silver 050.JPG coins silver 051.JPG coins silver 052.JPG coins silver 053.JPG coins silver 054.JPG coins silver 055.JPG coins silver 056.JPG coins silver 057.JPG coins silver 058.JPG coins silver 059.JPG coins silver 060.JPG silver2 009.JPG

Looks like the ATP is working for you. I must say the quality of detector one has is directly related to ones finds unless you are simply a beep & dig every signal type of guy. I also put my coins in folders and write the year found above each one. Congrats on pulling all those keepers.

Great job, Keep it up! If you haven't already attached the 5x8 coil I highly recommend you do and watch more finds pile in.

Nice job. You've clearly learned the Atp. It's a great machine.

Very nice what are you running it at? I do Pro, zero, max sensitivity, AUdio iron at 32. A couple of things that really work that you can get later on are the Grey Ghost headphones, they really separate and bring out the tone differences. Second the Nel coils are awesome. Recommend the Storm or Attack. Good luck and keep hitting those areas they are never totally hit out

I run it the same way mackdog . I have the 5x8 coil and about 80% of those finds are from that coil . The stock coil wears on my arm faster . Real easy machine to use and learn . I have over 300 hours on it I bet . I have two of the ATP and two pro pointers . I had one 5x8 coil go bad and was shipped another right away and both of the pointers were sent in and fixed for sensitivity issues and turning them on three to four times to power on . Garrett seems like a good company to deal with , it is after the warranty is up I am a little concerned about .

Congrats on all the great finds. The ATP is truly a Work Horse. Garrett did good when they produced the ATP.
