I have been thinking of upgrading my Ace this summer and decided, with a birthday this week, it was time. So today I met up with Koleen and with my Minelab Explorer in hand, we headed out to the site. I geared up and soon got a nice flutey signal. I dug and out came a .44 Merc. :icon_thumright: That was easy! The next three signals I dug were all junk, to keep me humble. :laughing7: I hunted for about 3 hours and found 3 zincolns, 4 wheats (two '46s, '42, and '44), and the Merc. Pinpointing went pretty well and the extra weight didn't faze me today. There is still a bit of hay stubble that catches on your coil making swinging tough. I hope to hit it again tomorrow. It was a beautiful day to be out. :icon_sunny:

HH and thanks for looking,
Michiganne

Way to go Anne. :headbang:

It's only gonna' get more fun and exciting as you familiarize yourself with the language...err... I mean "gibberish" ;D the explorer speaks :D

Silver on the first trip out with the Explorer is a feat in itself.

I hope you find many more :hello2:
