Sometimes Charlie, there is just no comeback. LOL

Now you ARE the one with the saying under your Avitar - "He jabbed a Seated Liberty Quarter with a Lesche!" Could be "He jabbed a gold doubloon with a SCREWDRIVER??"

You are correct, of course.

I don't have beaches to detect, and gold dubloons are few and far between in the Appalachians, but even so I seldom use a probe. I'd rather spend a little time with relatively careful digging (that occasionally all add up to a lot of time by the end of the day) than scratch the one Merc dime out of the dozens of clad Roosevelts I may turn up.

But in a riverfront park where cans get tossed and burried with great frequency . . .
