Finally found something besides snakes, poison and cans!!

[DebbzInNC]

WOO HOO!!! ~~~doing the happy dance~~ I finally dug up some real "stuff".
I only had about an hour today between errands so I headed to an old school nearby to practice with my Ace. Unfortunately, the playground was fenced and locked, so I wondered into the nearby woods (watching for snakes) and found part of an old stone foundation of what may have been a cabin or something.
I walked around it a bit, looking and saw a run off area where a little stream of rain water had been through.
So I thought...I'll try here in this run off cause there was no grass or weeds.

BING BING!!! first pass and I got a signal. Hee Hee. It was just a 1994 penny about 2 inches down...but I was stoked!
BING! a couple of feet further I got a nice signal, and easily dug up a little bracelet at about 3 inches.
A few feet further..BING! Trash!
But then BING BING .This dig took a little longer cause I couldn't quite pinpoint it..but finally it made it's appearance and it was a charm. ( and its sterling!!! )
Then just before I made my way back to my car, I got a signal, so decided I would go ahead and dig it. It was some type of cross earring or front of a pin, very pretty with pink crystal looking stones.
Most of the stuff was in good shape, doesn't look old, although the penny doesn't look like copper.
Anyway, just wanted to share my little stuff.
Thanks for reading.
I cleaned them up and am posting pictures.
Ahhhhh~~happy dance~~

well it looks like everyone said all the nice things I was gonna say You did gude. I got one of those silver ribbon things and thought it might have something to do with cancer awareness, I don't think it's sterling though.Big congrats.

GREAT FINDS!!!

BING, BING huh?
You must have a newer model than me
Nice finds.

Now set your mode to custom and eliminate everything from the penny to left. / This can be done with the 2 buttons on the far right.
You`ll still get the 1981 and older pennies but they`ll show as a dime, jumping back to the penny every once in a while when its copper.
That will eliminate digging a-lot of Zinc. (IE cans and trash)
Set your discrimination to one notch to the right of center for most iron content soils.

FYI:all of your custom settings will be saved unless you change them.

Wow, Thanks for the info on custom settings B|lker ! Now if I can follow those instructions, I'll be set.
Yep it goes BING BING sometimes. Sounds like a little bell ringing. lol. So pretty sounding.
I don't know if my Ace is newer than yours though, maybe it just has its own little personality.
I named my Garrett Ace250. ( I wuv her ) Her name is DeGrace Ace, after my little grand-daughter Devin Grace...and because I am "Graced" with the blessings of getting outside a bit and enjoying the hunting.
Yeah, I know thats silly and MM is probably thinking "GrapeApe GrapeApe" the old cartoon character (don't go there MM, lmao ), but shes a great detector and I am enjoying learning to use her.
I found some more pennies today, but none of them are real old.
Thanks for the encouragement. I really appreciate it.

Nope. The bottle is empty.
I named the Ace to give her "personality".
Ya know the old song : (YOU'VE GOT) PERSONALITY
Lloyd Price - 1959
"Cause you've got personality,
Walk with personality, talk with personality
Smile with personality, charm with personality
Love with personality......" and so on.

I figured a little personality name couldn't hurt.
