Was at an old school hunting around the play structures and snagged these two rings today. Ones a 925 silver gecko ring and the other I'm not sure. Maybe white gold can't make out the stamp on the inside.

So much of the time with an ATP I think one will look at the number of what an object rings at and call it trash, With a 250 your looking at the range and listen to the signal more and tend to dig a lot more. I had to learn to dig more with my ATP and dig on signal not so much on what it read. I found a nice 14k ring that rang at 59 and I was inclined to think it was a tab or something but dug anyway and got the ring. I am digging a lot more now because if you don't you won't find the rings.

I have both a 250 and ATP and I like them both. I have about 200 hrs on the ATP and still learning and about 350 hrs or so on the 250 and pretty much have it figured out.

Great digs. My 350 hasn't pulled a ring yet (lots of other stuff though) so I look forward to my projected elation when I finally do.

Thanks Normsel. Well I dig just about everything over 33 iron on my AT pro. I always dig the foil and tab signals. My ace just seems to find more goodies. I take it everywhere, always in my truck just incase.

Tucson Dan: thanks, have you got the 5 by 9 coil for your ace 350? If you don't I'd suggest getting it and hit the play structures at the schools,playgrounds and parks. I've found 9 rings this yr just at elementary schools and play grounds. The structure play sights with the pebble rock is great with the ace and the 5 by 9 coil. You can recover way more items just hitting play structures for the day. The school I went to last night, I must have recovered over 200 targets in 4 hrs, so easy to just move the small pebble and retrieve your find and move on the the next. My finds have increased so much doing this. Give it a try, you will see your ring collection grow faster. And dig the foil, nickel and tab signals. You will dig a lot of aluminum and foil but When you do this a couple or few times a wk all those targets you recover, you will get those rings too that read junk, that all those kiddies drop. Cheers! Good luck.
