First Finds with the Ace 250! GO :garrett:!!!

[R-n-R Magnolia SpringsAla]

The ground finely un-froze! Was hunting after 7pm last night (dark) around the curbs by my house. Found some pennys I missed with the Sov XS and the tesoro. Using the 4 inch coil w/ sens on 6 I think. This thing needs a backlight!!!!! - Helloooooo Mr. Garrett!
The square piece is copper or brass and was down about +6-8 inches, I was excited cause after I opened the hole 4 inch's it was still in the hole and the dirt was the good black soil that usually has the goodies in it! I was en-vision-ing silver qtr but no luck :sad: All the pennys were copper and 60's-70's except for one zincer that was shallow. I was using the "coins" program and digging 4 way sigs only. When I can see the display I'll use the "relics" mode to see if this unit does the foil/nickle bounce on the older nickles.

I must say the unit was stable and struck deep with the 4 inch coil, very impressive for a $200 machine.( i should know I've used about + 22 machines over the last 15 years) Looking forward to using it alot more, it will also be nice to be able to SEE the display!

Nice finds R-n-R, Still havent got out to hunt yet, the ground is still covered with that white stuff. Looks like a few more weeks.

good that you finally get to hunt a little, anyway I hunt with the ace and the sniper coil and I have not used the stock coil since I got the sniper, It is an awesome little coil, and makes finding the target a snap,and I find lots of silver and older coins in the 6-7 inch range all the time ,,good luck with the ace it will surprise you,,.I love mine.

Yeah that little coil is a mind boggler. I've got to remember to try the 4.5 I have for my Scorpion. I keep forgetting I have it. I got the last one Garrett had for it.

Alright! WTG, man! I'm glad you got to get out and hunt. Feels good, don't it? That little yellow fellow is a killer coin magnet. It's gonna be a good hunting season. Happy hunting!
