Detector(s) used
Minelab E-Trac
Being a lifelong Garrett user (Ace 250 for years and more recently the ATPro) I have heard there is a learning curve when moving to those machines from down under. This is a true statement but within an hour, I found 4 wheats and 2 silvers. One you understand what to listen for and trust your detector...all gravy after that.

Happy hunting!

I was a t2 user until met NMDan and Invited him to hunt my go to go to park , I found couple silver coins and NMDan was using etrac and found 11 silver coins , that was it i got a etrac and my count skyrocketed
 

Ah!!! Va Beach. Awesome place!!! Congrats!!
 

What Scoop said! Muah-hahaha-haha!!! 😈 Nice job!
 

AT PRO for 2 years,, 50 Silver coins.
ETRAC for 2 years,, 239 Silver coins.
 

That E trac will get the silver no doubt. Enjoy the ride.
 

Nice job on your silvers. I like my Minelab !
 

Well done on stepping up, and digging them up.
 

great job good job using your new detector hope this turns the tables for. you i got the new at max im hoping for gravy and the snow to melt enough to use it thanks for sharung
 

Nice job on your silvers. I like my Minelab !

Never underestimate older technology. Especially Minelab FBS multiple frequency machines. Low & slow will produce excellent finds in a learned swinger's hands.
 

congrats on the new machine, sounds like another awesome relationship is about to unfold. Best wishes for you this year, may it be as fruitful as you hope it to be, aw heck, be even better than that!
 

Nice silver recovery, congratulations on the new machine! :occasion14:
 

Nicely done. Looking to upgrade from my Ace 250 this next season.
Might splurge with my tax return... Want a AT Max but a Minelab is looking good too...

ATW you kinda made me want to branch out. Got one Merc dime with the ACE and one Silver necklace.

TWO HUNDRED AND THIRTY NINE SILVERS ARE YOU KIDDING ME? LOL

I agree 100 % Kurious. In fact I agree with you so much, that I also still use a Fisher CZ 5 depending on where I am going to hunt. Talk about older technology, but that detector continues to make me some great coin and relic finds.
