Went to the local city park today for about 2 1/2 hours. I found 15 pull tabs, 3 bottle caps (one old style), half a pair of sunglasses, part of a zipper, misc, 3 Pennies, 3 Nickles, 3 Dimes, and 2 Quarters - no old coins but my best clad find yet (and only found a dime and quarter together).

I also found some strange piece of metal, it is on edge in the picture to show the bent/sloped end. It is about 6 1/2" long and 2" wide, not sure what it is, but I do know I found it 10" in the ground. :D I have found a few targets in the past that seemed to be buried much too far for a coin so this time I dug it up.

Overall I have been getting much better results with my Bounty Hunter Tracker IV. Not sure if I am learning the machine/tones, going slower/faster at swinging or what but I did find some of the coins and tabs down to about 5" today - I'm very happy about that.

I ordered a 4" Gold Nugget coil for my MD that will be here Wednesday - couldn't wait so I paid for two-day delivery :thumbsup: I read great reviews about it will find more and better items, and read it gets the same depth as the standard 8" coil so I had to get it.

Also my pinpointer will be here in a few days as well - so far I have been waving the dirt in front of my MD coil and can't wait to quit that and be able to dig smaller holes. :D

off to a good start TC, keep swinging your new machine, and it will soon become an extension to your right arm
