First off I would like to thank everyone who helped me decide which metal detector to buy - Whitez LXT. Second, I would like to thank the gentlemen at Minneapolis Metal Detecors for putting up with me for over 3 hours. He answered everyone of my annoying questions. Greatly appreciated!!!!!
Now for the motherload. Got down with work and was 2 minutes away from a small park - less than a half a block square. I decided to hit it. Got out of my truck, set the machine up, and the first sweep a quarter. I'm thinking this is going to be great. I didn't get another 2 feet and bam - a dime. Another foot - my first wheatie. I'm thinking, someone just emptied my pockets right infront of me. I was trying to get toward the play ground area, but kept finding coins the whole way. Finally got to the playground area and that is when the problem started - KIDS!!!!! Lots of them little pests. How do you sweep your detector when you have 8 kids surrounding you? I figured it out - smack them in the shins once or twice and they move fast. The bad part is - when I found a signal and leaned over to dig, I had 16 little hands trying to get it before I did. I ended up with 8 quarters, 7 dimes, 6 nickles, 34 pennies, 1 wheat penny, 2 match box cars, and a belt buckle. All in less than 30 minutes. I think the kids got more than what I got. Obviously no one has hunted here before. I will return! Hopefully no kids!
