My wheat to silver ratio is a bit off.

My friends and I have pounded the obvious areas very hard over the last 20 years. We have cleaned most of your normal hunting spots(parks, schools etc) to the extent of our current detectors abilities. I bought a E-Trac a few weeks ago knowing new technology would bring new life to these old site. I can now hunt these old place and pull good stuff. The E-Trac has a reputation as a silver magnet so my silver to wheat count is a bit off. Here is a picture of my finds with a new detector from old sites where our older detectors had quit producing.

There are 7 wheats to 3 silver coins. One Indian Head, 6 rings(1 gold 3 silver) and a gold earring. It is results like this that tell me without a doubt a new detector can be the key to older coins.
