I had given up on getting out again this season. The weather looked like it was going to be too cold. I wish I would have gotten back into it earlier this year.
The overnight temp was 30, but by afternoon it had warmed up to a balmy 37. I decided that between my winter prep chores I would venture out for a quick hour of detecting. I have been running the 4” coils on my machines lately. They are just so much fun that way. I took my Eurotek Pro and the Tracker IV our this time. Started scanning around the benches on the sidelines in the girls soccer field. A few zincs and dimes here and there. Nothing special, but finds are finds. I got a light scratchy sound with the Tracker. I have the tones set to break just above nickel. Still dig the mixed pull tab signals though. I switched to all tone and down 3-4 inches popped up a nice little 10k gold ring with hearts. It was a little bent, but landed on my wife’s finger mostly round.
I’m very glad I braved the chilly wind today. I love my Tracker!
