Detector(s) used
Fisher CZ-70 Pro , Fisher CZ-20 , Minelab Explorer SE
I have been using a Fisher CZ 70 Pro for many years and absolutely love the machine. I have no complaints or problems with the CZ, however I recently decided I needed some variety and purchased a Minelab Explorer SE. Today was my first time out with the machine and my first time ever using a Minelab. Went to a local ghost town that was loaded with trash, seemed like an appropriate place to learn a machine. I figured the more signals I got and dug the faster I would learn the machine. After about an hour of hunting I got a sweet silver hit. Dug down about 7 inches in the bone dry field and out pops this beauty! I have found several silver halves over the years, but this was my first Barber half. So it turns out that my Very First Coin found using the new machine is a 1907 S Barber Half.... I can get use to this! :laughing7:
