    I was out hunting in a 1930's house and hit a nice 12-20, 12-24 and out popped this nice piece of gold. Thought it was going to be my first gold coin but then I noticed the "posts" on either end and realized it was a part of a ring . I googled imaged it and found out it was a 1 Centavo Mexican...

    Second goal met with Etrac

    I met my first goal a couple of weekends ago by finding my 50th silver with the Etrac before the end of the year(I did it in 6 months, I have had the Etrac since April.) My second goal was to break into the 1800's. I did it today with a 1891 IH. ....added bonus, one more Silver and I will be at 60.

    Are headphones covered

    Looks like my headphones on my Etrac have given out. They were the Kosses that came with them. I have not contacted minelab yet, thought I would ask here. The machine is less than a year old. Thanks in advance !
