    Garrett pinpointer problems?

    What is it????

    I will give you a little history on the area I was searching in today. Late 1800's early 1900's this area used to be a mining zone. Several 40 plus years ago they turned it into a park.

    Best way to clean old coins

    I don't know if it is the soil here or what, but most of the coins I have found are super dirty looking. Pennies are really bad even if they are not that old. Just wondering if there is a good way to clean the coins without causing more damage? Thanks Dave

    Anyone ever find and duck or goose bands???

    I am a waterfowl hunter big time. I was reading this summer on one of the web pages for waterfowl hunters and noticed that a guy took his MD to a public hunting area and walked the banks by the water. He recovered 16 waterfowl bands in one day. Kind of cool!!! So let me know if you have ever...

    How does colder ground affect a MD

    I live in Iowa and this is my first year with a MD. I was just wondering how a few inches of frost or snow might affect a MD? Does it have an affect on the signal and such? Might be a stupid question but I don't know.. Thanks

    1st time out with the new Garrett Ace 250

    I went out to a park yesterday with my new Garrett Ace 250. I was out for maybe 2 hours. I found 9 coins. Most were pennies and dimes. The best part was I found my first wheat penny! I cant wait to go out again this week. Thanks to everyone for suggesting the Ace. It was worth every penny........

    what makes a good detector?

    I am brand new to this detecting thing. I know that you can spend well over $1000.00 for one, but I have only about $200 to spend. I was wondering what you look for and what are some good things in them and the things to stay away from. I picked up a Cabelas one the other day but I am not to...
