Primary Interest:
Metal Detecting
I just got my e-trac and wanted to see what it could do at a site that I've pounded pretty hard. At that site using the stock search coil I unearthed a few wheat pennies, some clad coins and a Mercury dime. I also wanted to see what it could do with the newly purchased CORS Fortune search coil so I decided to hit some old pounded to death curb strips. As I working my way down the street a lady walked out with her dog and I asked her if I could detect her nice corner lot. She said have at it. I've been wanting to detect this corner lot for a few years now because I've found some good silver coins, a couple of buffalo nickels and a Indian Head penny in the curb strip in front of her house.

I carefully grid searched the yard and found a Walking Liberty, a couple of Rosie dimes, around 15 wheat pennies and a Eagle Button. I went back over the yard again with the Equinox and found one more wheat penny that was over some iron. BTW, the Walker was less that 2 inches deep, it gave a reading of 5-46 and it about blew my ears off.
