The house two doors down is headed for foreclosure and had grown up in weeds and small trash trees. My neighbors asked if I wanted to band together and get the property mowed and cut so it wouldn't be such an eye sore. I diligently spent two long hot hours mowing and cutting and pulling vines, then grabbed my gear and started swinging. In the back I got a gold plated bangle and a brass commemorative token from the USS Constellation 1977. Then I hit the front with my new AT pro. The machine is super easy and has a good recovery speed compared to my safari with a 15" WOT. I got some clad and two toy cars and then... two silver quarters. One was in with an iron bolt the other right on the edge of the walkway. 52 and 55. Then I went over the whole thing again with the WOT and didn't find anything except the trash I had ignored. I dug a few mid range trash targets and called it a day. Its nice to know the AT doesn't miss much though I am excited to try this method elsewhere; cleaning the easy stuff fast with the AT then sweeping deep with the Safari and WOT.
