So nice I am posting this one twice.

Hi everybody,

I received my new 12.5 Excelerator coil today and of course had to test it out. Well, long story short I found my first Eagle Breast plate. It's in great condition also. Also found a pulled mini, brass buckles, iron relics andsome modern clad. This coil is awesome and now ill need to re-hit all my favorite spots.

Happy Easter Everybody!!

HH- Ronin

WTG! I'm still searching for mine. I think I may have found some pieces of a plate. Does yours have any weight to it or is it made of light metal like tin? Thanks and keep hitting that site!
Mike ;)

Hi Mike,

No, This thing is solid!!! You'll love it when you find one. It is a really durable detailed plate. About the size of the bottom of a can of soda. I can't wait to go back out. I'm with family today being Easter but my mind is out searching for another breastplate. :-\

They weren't all that much deeper. The plate was maybe 7 to 8 inches down. I can cover more area per sweep and that is a great help. Ill be using it more over the next week so ill be able to say for sure how it does. So far I feel it's more resposive then the stock coil and ID's much much better. As far as depth? It's suppose to be deeper but until I see it ill hold judgement. Thats a COOL avatar you have.
