Hello everyone, got out for a Hunt after work today for a few hours. Dug up a good amount of clad, some trash and four decent pieces of silver. I never get tired of finding Mercury dimes.
One thing I will mention is I was using my Minelab E-Trac tonight. The reason I mention this is because I have been using the XP Deus about 90% of the time now. I noticed when I went on club hunts it always seems like the Minelab people found more older, deeper coins than me. Don't get me wrong I find a lot of great things with the XP Deus but this past Saturday I went on a hunt in an old trashy park with two friends that use Minelabs and they found some cool coins; V-nickels, Shield Nickels, Indians, etc.... I ended up just with clad. It seems like the Minelabs can read the deeper targets with the trash around. I think I have a pretty good understanding of XP settings and it is a fast machine around trash, I just don't think it can pick out the very deep targets around trash like a Minelab. Anyway I'm probably just going to start a big debate here which is not my intention, it's just an observation and maybe this Forum is not the proper place for my comments, nevertheless enjoy the photos, happy hunting everyone!
