This is a compilation of my precious metal finds for last year (2008). I came up on 45 gold items, 34 silver coins, and 21 other silver items. I would have 46 gold finds but I lost one.

My low gold count for this year is because for more than half of last year I concentrated on learning a new machine, the ML SE. Thanks for looking and good luck.

Wow!!! Thats great finds :thumbsup: I'm still trying to figure out my Minelab SE. I have Andy Sabischs book, and have studied the gold ring readings, but funny enough, on the weekend I pulled a 14k gold ring with a reading of 21/06. Got me thinking a bit, so I started pulling all good hits, but only managed two cheapy rings. Parks here are riddled with pull tabs, so is there something I'm missing for gold? Is smartfind better than digital?
Once again, congatulations on a good year.

For someone learning a new machine, those are some terrific finds. Do you know what those wings are in the first picture? I found the same thing a few weeks back.
