First time out finds!

Hey all. I just got my Ace 250 yesterday and couldn't wait to get done with my one class of the day so I could try it out. First I hit up a park that was full of foil and later that night checked out the outfield of the high school baseball field with a friend and a headlamp. Had a great time and am looking forward to doing a lot more. Hopefully next time I'll get some stuff that's more interesting to post! (the stuff that you always feel like will be in the next hole you're going to dig :P)

Money is always good stuff, especially quarters!

Keep a log of all your finds and see how long it takes to pay the new machine off.

Hunting and fishing are the same way, you never know what the next couple of minutes will bring.

Good Luck

Welcome to the forum, Squirrel. The mom in me has to say "Don't be cutting classes, now, Sam!".

It only gets better from here. Do your research, learn your machine, and practice and you'll be finding silver and gold in no time!

Thanks everybody for the encouragement and support. I just went home to stay at my parent's house for a few days this last week and found a couple neat things. I'll post pics soon hopefully.

I agree with DeKalb.......the pull tab is vintage now too. Hard to find a good pull tab these days ;)
