PERSONAL BANNER DAY!!! SO PSYKED!!!

[JimmeyC]

Hello fellow treasure hunters, and thank you for sharing in my excitement!

Went out yesterday to a local Park Iv'e been to before with modest results, Not bad but not great... It was a beautiful day here in the Buffalo NY area and about 1 min into it, I hit a solid signal wile scrubbing the grass! At about 10ish inches I dug up a nice silver quarter! Immediately I noticed a small crown? Curious.... I went to the truck and some water. 1902-H King Edward Sterling Silver Quarter!!! Now I'm totally Stoked!!! Wile I was enjoying the moment, I realized this find was at the very fringe of the depth I was getting... Coil up a 1/4 inch and nothing! What else am I missing I wondered? Hmmmmm...........



Determined to make it a great day I put the E-Trac in manual sensitivity and pushed the H.E. double hockey sticks out of it! MAX!

I know, I know.... May miss things and the chatter was great.... But..... I slowed WAY DOWN and was able to hear the good through the endless chatter.

Research & my patients paid off BIG! Silver is scattered all over this field! Silver I had been walking right over in auto sensitivity. You can imagine my excitement as I started digging up coins from 12 to 13 inches.... All I can say is WOW. A personal best day for me and I'm still excited!

I'll skip the coin by coin plays and just get to the money shot for the day... Hope you enjoy!



4 first's and a pocket full-o silver! LOL, I think I need a bigger coil!!!

Thanks for looking and HH to all!!!

an most awesome day!

Awesome!
My machine rarely finds anything that deep. Maybe it's time for an upgrade. I've been hunting with it on max sensitivity for a few months and I'm finding way more stuff than I used to. I hunt slow and low too.
I don't know why I ever turn it down.

Congrats on what I consider an stellar day!

I always hunt with my explorer on manual. U miss alot in automatic. Great finds

 

[JimmeyC]

Thanks Fix, Some are a whisper. I'm thinking about a BIG coil now. The field I'm in is topsoil about 2 feet before clay. It has also been a park since the early 1800's... Wondering what I'm missing even more so now!

Thanks! Hey, I did struggle with a Garrett GTA 1000 for years! LOL... It was a hand-me-down and is over 25 now but it still makes finds! It got me hooked!

Well done! Some times a new approach is like starting over. Nice haul,hope you fill a small bucket with silver this year.

 

[mariposagold]

Wow, how exciting. Maybe I need to fool around with settings on some of my older sites. I'm running real low on silver this year.

Congrats.

that is a good day for sure!!

Looks like your determination and experimenting paid off BIG time!

Very nice silver scores! Our area is silver poor but better for brass items so will take what ever if find since I am enjoying the hunts. I have been running my E-trac in manual sensitivity also. Definite improvement and I am also trying to ramp up sensitivity a bit but the field out here is rather iron infested. Believe I can tell better with less sensitivity whats going on. Heres a picture of my new to me coil, the 15 inch W.O.T. Since you mentioned bigger coils in your posting , have been doing well in the field with it. finding more deep brass items now . Am still working on getting the pinpointing down better. Doing the it while in discriminate seems more easy to me. Given the amount of iron in the field here its probably the only way to do it.
