    Been a good week for coins

    Even though I wanted to sell off the other day I decided to keep the Xterra 305. Now the Ace will probably go, but not sure if I should try to locate a good Xterra 70 as a swap off or just sell the unit and take the cash. I know when the xterra first came out they were noted for shutting down...

    Had a real lucky day

    Can't believe it went metal detecting and got $3.76 and a silver ring with a garnet stone. Still debating on what to do with the detectors. Sell, or Keep.. Maybe just sell the Ace 250 off, or sell both and upgrade to the Xterra to the 505 ? Mixed emotions.

    Really haven't been out since spring and the past two days have been poor.

    Seems the schools are getting rid of the woodchips and going to the rubber mats or ground up tires. It's becoming less and less easy to find places to go. Now the question is I have a Garrett Ace 250 with stock coil and rain cover, Excelerator coil with cover 10 x 14 DD and sniper coil with...

    Went back out to the soccer field today and

    $2.18 was the number for the day :-)) No way to make a living though, but you know what I had fun. Still no silver. Second year with the Xterra 305 and the 5th with the Ace 250. The Ace is the longest I've ever kept a detector. Hopefully back out tomorrow. Happy Hunting Bruce Minelab Xterra...

    Don't alway post since I have the Xterra 305

    But the past 2 days have been pretty good at a local soccer field. Tuesday I pulled in $2.35, and today I did a little bit better and got $3.62. Also pulled a little junk, but that's expected. Hoping to get back out tomorrow if it's not raining. Still debating on the 5 x 10 DD. The ground is not...

    Missed out on a good deal with a Minelab Safari due to finances

    But wondering if the 5 x 10" 18.75 kHz X-Terra Coil would be any improvement over the 9" stock coil. When pin pointing is it off the tip of the coil that's the hot spot ? Always loved the center of the coil when locating target. Has anyone else used the Safari and what were your thoughts on it...

    Has anyone tried the new coil for the Ace at Kellyco

    13" Ultimate DD Coil for ACE 150/250 Already have the Excelerator 10 x 14 DD and was wondering if it would be any better. Do love the 10 x 14 DD except you have to pin point off the toe. Like when it's in the center of the coil Happy Hunting Bruce Ace 250 Excelerator 10 x 14 DD Stock coil...

    Thank you Garrett for my new 2012 calendar.

    Not only do you make a great detector, but your calendar has always been hanging on my cubicle wall at work keeping me motivated through out the year. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Bruce D. Fichtner Upper NY
