    Recent finds

    I found these at two of my sites that produce almost every hunt. The 35 Washington was reading a solid 11-47 at 8 inches from both directions and the ground was very dry. I love when the Etrac makes that sound.

    I'm getting a handle on the Etrac

    Picked these up fron my last 2 hunts of about 5 hours. The Buffalo is 1920 and several of the wheats are from the teens. This makes silver #9 with the Etrac and #62 total for the year. I hoping to hit 100 this year.

    More Etrac goodies!!

I also got the 44 Merc it was about 6 inches down. Today I went for a short hunt to an area Ive been over with the V3i and managed to get a1911...

    Past 10 days finds... No dead pets in this one!

    Way to go Magic. That seated is a great find and any seated is still on my goal list for this year I'm at silver number 53 for the year with no seated, I wish we had more seated coins in this area. You are becoming a master with the V3i. When is your book going to be done? I will buy the first...

    New Etrac's first 5 hours.

    This is my take from the first 5 hours with the Etrac. This is from a site that has produced over 100 wheat's and 26 silver coins with the V3i. My first thought is, I am impressed with how the Etrac locks onto a coin. It also has great separation capabilities and goes deep with little tweaking...

    Where would you purchase a new Etrac

    It seems that everyone is right around $1498 for a new Etrac with free shipping. Who gives the best deal and choice on extras with the purchase. Most offer stuff that a seasoned hunter already has. PM me if you cant post the dealers name on the thread. Thanks

    My 50th silver coin for the year.

    The depth is within a 1/2 inch on most coins but it depends if the coin is flat or slightly on edge. Some of the larger silver are deeper than indicated usually 1/2 to 1 inch.

    Being Professional Helps!

    Congrats Magic on a good hunt. I always act as professional as possible and it makes me feel better about hunting a lawn when the owner of the property fully understands my retrieval methods. I also hand out a card to the owner, it makes you look more responsible for your actions and you never...

    My 50th silver coin for the year.

    I got out for a short 2 hour hunt Wednesday and found my 49th and 50th silver coins for the year. #49 is a 1954-D Washington and the 50th is a 1943-P silver war nickel. Now I just need two more to double the silver I found last year. This year I'm averaging 1 silver coin and 3 wheat's every 2...
