Let me tell everyone, the Garrett Ace 350 is phenomenal when it comes to finding coins. I started with the Bounty Hunter Tracker IV, and that was OK. Then I got the Garrett Ace 150 and that was even better, but the Garrett Ace 350 is amazing. I have found more coins with it than any of the others.
You can make $5 an hour in clad at some playgrounds. Last year I bought high grade silver coins online with my clad money. This year I have been doing colonial sites, so my clad total is EXTREMELY low. This year my oldest coin this year is a 1655-1658 French Liard, followed by a 1723 Hibernia, followed by a dateless young head KGII from 1727-1740, I also scored this high grade large cent this September, the other couple of large cents I found are in really bad shape.
Hey, at least you got a chance to hunt. It was dark and raining when I left work so no chance today.
And remember, it COULD have been some real treasure. You never know. Plus, you're now 10 targets closer to the next amazing find.
My entire right calf has been swollen, painful and red for over a week. I actually got an infection through my knee and FROM the dirt; from metal detecting no less.
Can you believe it??
I hate knee pads but I'll have to figure something out. I'm started a round of antibiotics yesterday to clear this mess up. I was hoping it would "go away" on it's own but no such luck.
But I did a little hunting anyway in spite of the intense pain.
How sick is that??
