Headed downtown after work with a place in mine Couldn't find a place to park so I headed around the block. Look on the corner and who do I see MY buddy Richard here's what I found 37 Quarter 44s Merc 36s Buff Nickle 43s war nickle and 3 wheat's all from an area that we have pounded before . It was fun hope to do it again soon HHR the Buff nickle would only hit one way but was a 12-13 and souned deep the war nic was a 15-15 but sounded good I have never found so many nickles the ET is killer on nics I found 7 nickles out of a little area that has been pounded

That was a fun hunt Ron and congratulations
on the silvers, wheats, buffalo nickle and the war nickle.
Not too shabby for an area that has been pounded on a
regular basis. Your E-trac seems to LOVE nickles
and silver coins!! Gold Nuggets :icon_jokercolor:

Nice job, Ron! :thumbsup:

That's one thing I'm just not finding....old nickels. Probably because I dig very few of the lower conductor tones.

So do you think the E-Trac has really increased your nickel finds from your previous Explorer? Or are you just digging more of the low conductors from your pounded areas now because there are more of those signals left?

Congrats,

Dan I think the SE and the ET are very close on there ability to find Nickles the one thing that makes the ET a little better is having the digital and smart at the same time when I see the conduct # 11 12 13 14 15 16 I am going to dig Its great for hunting in high trash HH RonC
