I couldn't believe it,,,I pulled it out of the ground and I thought it was a wheat penny at first,,,,as I cleared more dirt from the back I knew it wasn't a wheat penny.....I was like I gotta go in the house! Went inside cleaned it up and I was like its my first Indian head penny!!!!! I had been over this spot a few times with my Whites Classic 5Id. I asked her if she wanted to trade,,,,she said Naaawwwww.

I found my first IH with my ACE 250 last year and was ecstatic. Took my son to that park and he found one with his ACE 150. Not bad at all! Congrats!!

Congrats! and I like the ideas... Putting stickers on your Whites, painting it pink , paying your daughter rental etc.

Its to early to call,,,,,I can say that i found a dime and this Indian head penny in one of the yards that I have been over a couple times before.Iam also finding smaller trash/objects that the whites classic 5Id just went over. Iam still learning this machine so I cant make a call on it.

Low end Garrett's are better than White's
High end White's are better than Garretts...

but that just my opinion... everyone has one.

My Dad has an Ace 250 and we took my nephew who is 7 out with it. I was ready to break it in half and through it away. I am so use to my machine. I hear so many good things about the Ace, maybe I should learn to use it. Until someone can prove me wrong I think I will stick to my old Fisher. Good Luck! I hope you find many more keepers!
