Went back to my old honey hole, more than anything to just get acquainted with the chatter, bells and whistles of my new machine. I didn't expect to find much of anything, as I have hunted the shiz out of this yard.. my elbow being sore as it is, I didn't really feel like digging a lot of targets, so much for that.

Quite a variety of finds, the massive Tonka Toy Fire truck eluded the ACE 350.:dontknow:

Also was happy to see a silver, 43-P

The toy soldier was a great find, its the third one I have ever found.(the other two were from this lawn as well)

Then finally, this little pin, I am guessing it is from WW2, a Canadian Military pin of some sort. It says Vancouver, strange thing is I also found a Russian WW2 pin in this yard last year.

Congrats, BigWaveDave!
I'm curious: Were the new finds deeper than 6"?

Not necessarily, the targets I chose to dig were based on the info given to me by the machine. I have hunted this place dozens of times, as there are hundreds of targets. I did hit on a few deep targets in the back yard, but chose not to dig them, because its a trash pit, loaded with glass.
 
I bought the AT Pro 5 weeks ago, amazing how well it works!

Great Job
 
You must have tons more confidence now, and i think confidence in your machine is a huge portion of success . . .
 
Great hunt!! Wait until your elbow feels better and sort through that trash in the back yard, just might be some more silver waiting on you.
 
Nice!, way to break in the atpro with a war nickel!
