I bought the AT Pro Last year but i waited until March for my first search. I was so shy and going out early in the morning to avoid people. Began digging without a pinpointer. It was hard, up & down all the time. First day i got my pinpointer i went to a park around 6 pm. I remembered i video on youtube showing that you must dig everything and so i did. After 15 min, my first gold ring.

No more free time in front of the TV.
Others were to follow..

Old coins became a rutine.

But i couldn't avoid finding also Euros. One day 10€, the other 20€ and other days 100€.

And at the end of 2015 there were around 1200€ :notworthy: without counting the coins that i spent for shopping or spending in the restaurants on the beach.
