    12-45 in my local park

    Got a nice 12-45 at my local park and was only about 5 inches deep in a not so trashy area. Turns out it is my oldest US coin to date. But not sure on the year. Its a large cent with the 1/100 fraction and the head facing right. This dates the coin from 1793-1807!! Sorry no pictures......it is...

    The difference in the sound of silver?

    Well at some point I have been able to tell the difference a silver coin made on my etrac(or atleast I thought I could), but now when I place a silver dime next to a clad there is very little if any difference. I dont want to do a reset because I will lose everything else but I fear that I have...

    Awesome depth with 12x15 sef:goodnight:

    Hunted a new park last nite near by. Probably dates to the early 1900's. Other than some clad and pull tab signals near the surface everything else was super deep. Im thinking it was a fill at one time. I hit a 74 memorial at atleast 8", 1930 wheat at 10+ inches, and surprisingly a 44 merc at...

My theory is that with the proper coil and swing technique and maybe your angle...

    Well I have gotten permission recently to hunt a very old and very large farm. House is dated 1760 and I believe the property was used even earlier.

    hard machine to learn on?

    Just wanted to know if maybe I should have started out on a simpler machine? Or is the etrac good because of the teaching an old dog new tricks theory. In other words would the etrac be harder to leaqrn on if you a veteran md'er?
