Retro hunt in the rain with my Ace 250

[treasurefiend]

Had a chance to get out and hunt but the only problem was it was raining (11/3/11) but the treasure hunting bug bit so out the door I went. I have been wanting to knock the dust off of my Ace 250 for sometime now since its been a few years since its seen any woods action and 20min into the hunt I found a merc. Was fun but man I forgot why I upgraded to a Minelab - the false targets were everywhere. LOL Wandering thru the woods I also found a huge concrete foundation, have to go back and do a serious hunt to see what goodies its hiding!!!

Anybody have any idea what the FPD tag is from, I think maybe its an old tree tag but don't know how it would attach to the tree unless it had a strap or something but then the tag would sit sideways.

I also came across a geo-cache hidden in an old tree trunk so I signed it "found this while metal detecting"

Sweet video!! I haven't used my Ace in months!! Might be time to dust it off...though I prefer to stick to tot lots with it (less falsing and fewer deep targets, plus more jewelry!!). Congrats on the merc!!

Geez Dude, can't keep the goodies away for long, eh?!?

Hey, I think that tag went on the picnic tables. I've found a few old table remains with similar tags on them in a few woods that were former picnic groves.

Cool I never would of thought of that, I found another FPD tag 2 years ago also from the 50's but from what I remember it was a square tag.
