Hey guys,
The systems went down at work so I was the first to put up my hand for half a day off, I decided to get out my new ace250 which I purchased over a year or two ago and I haven't had a chance to really take it for a swing.
I started off at my local park which has some history, however soon as I set myself up some guy told me another detectorist has beaten me to it and cleaned out the park a couple of days ago! And he was right all I found were heaps of ring pulls and a beaten up ammo shell.
So I head for another lesser known park which I assumed had some kind of coin dropping history! but no, only junk iron was to be found, and I really doubt I'll be going back there without earth moving equipment - I couldn't dig an inch without striking rocks!
So head for the bush and found some bullets, better then nothing.
I still had a great time out and about tho, I had drop into my inlaws so I decided to detect their front lawn, and I found 20cents (finally something of value!) and what appears to be 9mm rounds and their used shells in the same hole!!
anyhow if I don't stop typing and post some pics this post will turn into a novel called "How not to metal detect!"
P.s: If this doesn't make sense , sorry I have only had 3hours sleep in the past two days.
