Ok this is the follow up to my original post titled 'GTAx Still Works'. I decided to re-post because I wasn't sure if putting pics on the old post would show it as updated or not.
Anyway, yes my GTAx has done well just in two short hunts. Of the pics, the 1920 wheat, hybrid rose tag, clad, mood ring and faucet head were found using my Ace 250 and At Pro.
The 1951 and 1957 D wheats, glitzy ring and religious pendant were found yesterday and today with my GTAx(i did find about 20 clad coins too but didn't bother with a photo). I find that i am digging much deeper for coins with the GTAx than my other two detectors. It might be because of the coil. The GTAx is usually pretty good at silencing the trash, but you do tend to dig it still...unfortunately a bit more iron than the AT Pro of course, but no where near as many bottle caps as the AT Pro. And one odd thing about the GTAx I have noticed over my others, I always seem to dig large round items with it...I don't know why that is, maybe the coil again? By 'round' i mean items that are at least 2" diameter...and often brass. Dug some thing at the park like this today, not sure what it is though.
So, I am going to dig a lot more with my old Cadillac GTAx for the next few days and see what else I find.
