Corinth, Illinois It aint on the map! Southern
Detector(s) used
Minelab E-Trac w/sunray probe, Excelerator EQ2 coil
I got fed up with the DFX and bought a Minelab E-Trac. The DFX has been wonderful, over 100 silver dimes in 2 years, and a 1901 s barber quarter (made the banner) that sold for over $4000.00. It definetly earned its keep, but it was frustrating to see guys hunting the same sites i was hunting with a minelab finding silver and i wasnt finding a thing. The sites ive been hunting simply arnt producing anymore, so ive made the upgrade and im glad i did. First time out, third coin dug was a rosie 7 inches down, an hour later at a site ive hunted a zillion times i pulled another rosie 9 inches down under a root standing on its end. WOW....I know its early but so far im impressed with the E-trac. Many more post to come I hope......

Just curious I see you are a new member and you found a 1901 s barber that made the banner.
How can that be when it appears this is your first post? Do you have two accounts?
Welcome to T Net and good finds.

Very nice job on the rosies! I am glad that you are impressed with your E-Trac :thumbsup:
 
Nice going!
It's fun learning a new machine. Good luck with it.

Welcome to the E-Trac club. I see you've noticed its silver seeking abilities. :icon_thumright:
It's not just the depth, it's the accurate ID at depth. Any machine can get depth, but it's the ID that makes the ET a silver killer. I have 132 silver this year from hunted out parks and schools. I set a goal of 100 for the year, but looks like 200 or even 250 may be easily attainable before the year is out.

Yes. That is what i am talking about!! I just sold my SE and bought an E-trac.. Cant wait to get out there.. I dont like to point out flaws of other detectors.. but You really cant beat the depth a minelab gives you..

I have found A merc and lots of wheats at 9-10 inches with my SE so i am really looking forward to seeing what the e-trac can do..

Nick.. Good to see you over here too!!
 
The etrac didn't find a darn thing, you did! A excellent operator makes an excellent hunt! Monty

And the fact that it can find coins 10+ inches helps to right? ;D :tongue3: :hello:
