    Anyone know what a 20 cent silver reads as on etrac?

    Found a possible unhunted part of the park. What settings would you use here...

    Hello everyone - Was riding my bike around last night and found a spot with at least 50 pull tabs right on the surface of the ground. Pulled out the etrac and bam - wheatie! Could only spend a half hour there but managed to pull 26 wheats and 3 dimes all about 1-2" deep. How would you guys...

    First cool bar token... do you guys clean your tokens?

    Got my first flower style token last night and was wondering if I could do anything to make it easier to read. Anyone tried the Hydrogen Peroxide method on a token? Any other suggestions? Also, does anyone know of a good site that I might be able to ID this token and trace its year? Thanks and HH!

    Last two hunts - Keeping the silver streak alive

    Spent a few hours in my local park and found the '63 dime - looks like someone painted it before they lost it. Then hit some private property in the burbs we got permission to hunt at and got the '49 quarter only 2-3 inches down. Thought it was clad and was careless with the digger and gave it a...

    First month finds with etrac

    Hey guys - I've proven it to myself that I love this hobby and made the leap from ACE 250 to the etrac. It only took a few hunts to grasp the etrac concept and start finding silver. 0 silver last year, 7 in my first month with etrac. I'm loving it! Hope you enjoy the pictures of my best finds...

    I see FE-CO numbers everywhere

    Last night I was climbing into bed and glanced at the alarm clock. The time was 11:47 and even before the time registered in my brain, I thought QUARTER! HH - GTL!

    Great Sunday hunt leads to many firsts and personal records!

    I am still so exhausted from hunting for 10 hours yesterday but I am still pretty excited about the hunt. I got a wicked sunburn on my neck. Note to self: use sunblock on your neck even if it is only 60 degrees out. Started the day around 9am at a new place I have been wanting to check out for...

    4th hunt with my etrac and finally got some silver!

    After a year with the Ace 250 I moved up to the real deal and today went out for a short 2 hour hunt where I have been popping out many wheaties... finally got a silver. 1920d Merc. So happy. Each hunt keeps getting better and better with this machine.

    3rd time out with my etrac. Getting better with it.

    Gotta love half days. Made it out to a park for a 4 hour hunt. Found 2 wheats out there with my Ace so figured there might be more. Well, got a personal record of 11 wheats today. Some deep and some shallow. So my question is why is there so many old wheats here, but no silver yet? I want to...

    Any ideas on this blank token?

    Found this token thing that says nothing. Any ideas? Found it about 5" deep. It's a little bigger than a quarter.

    Lake Michigan was angry today but I braved the weather for some loot!

    Well, not much loot but not bad for an hour and a half. I set da ACE to 25c and up cuz I didnt have time to dig crappy pennies and pull tabs. I couldn't see the token when I got it because it was too dark but I was excited, it looked old. Got home and rinsed off the sand and wow - it says...

    ACE 250 finds me a KILLER RING! $400+

    All year long I've only been lucky enough to find 2 rings... maybe you remember my posts. A fat .925 silver and a little 14k 15th birthday ring. Well, I just doubled my ring count last weekend. Within 5 minutes, and 15 ft apart, these two beauties showed up. Rang as high nickle/low pull tab...

    2 Indians in one day with the ACE. My oldest coin to date; 1873.

    Found these two cents about 20 feet from each other. 1873 and a 1907. Anyone have any success with cleaning these types of coins up?
