So I bit the bullet and got a MAX, which so far is awesome, it will take some getting used to, but it’s unreal what that thing can do. Had some time and met a friend to hunt a small rocky section of secluded beach the other day. Between the salt water, and the other jazz on that beach, the MAX did some chattering, but I managed to pull these.. a fork that says ‘Simeon L & Geo W. Rogers Co Nickel & Silver’ on the back, a 1928 buffalo and a Standing Liberty quarter, both firsts for me. It’s an interesting beach cuz between me and my friend, we’ve got buffalos, barber quarters, standing liberty’s, mercs, Indian head penny and clad of course. It’s nuts!

congrats, the Max runs 13khz and gives target ID numbers. 2 things that should allow you to be more productive.

I’ve given my Max the weekend off, she got tired of finding stuff I’ve missed with the Pro.
Congrats on the great finds!

Thanks! Got out for about 4 hours with the max today and struck out.. tons of junk from an old homesite that is now a wheat field.. it’s crazy how one piece of scrap metal that gets torn up by farm equipment can turn into 30 “good” signals. Ehh
