Santa was kind enough to bring me a new Equinox 800 for Christmas (I must have been especially good this year!), and today I took it on its first hunt at a park that I've pounded for years.

I'm still figuring it out, but despite the learning curve I managed to score a .925 silver charm, a super-toasty Draped Bust LC and a nice pile of clad.

The LC was especially surprising, since the park is only about 15 years old, and I found it about six inches down right on the sideline of a soccer field. It's pretty toasted, but when I hold it at the right angle I can see the outline of woman facing right on the front, and a faint wreath and "One Cent" on the back.

I've got a lot to learn about it, but I'm really impressed with this machine so far.

Thanks for looking - HH!

They used to pave the streets with them! You left coasters don't know what you are missing!

Congrats on the nice scores SOC.
 
Nice finds with the new machine. Congrats. You’re going to love the equinox.
 
Yes, the East Coast rocks. I think you'll like the Equinox over the AT Pro, but keep it as a backup machine.
 
Excellent maiden voyage,
Congrats,,
I suspect that land was a farm for 200 years until the family donated some farmland to be used as a park.
 
Great first hunt! I am still learning mine but keep getting more confidence with it every hunt. Continued good hunting.
 
1st magic!

Nicely done, and all the best,

Lanny
