But there is no joy in Mudville — mighty Casey has struck out. ;)

Ok, so I'm not really being too serious. I finally went out to initiate my brand new AT-PRO. I wanted to give it the best chance for a good find to start off my last half of my career as an amateur archeologist. Wanted my new machine to start off right. So, I skipped over countless rings, gold doubloons, silver trinkets, platinum bands, to get to the best vdi I could get before I made my first dig.

Some were very tempting too! Well, at least they're still there for the rest of you to find. ;)

AND, now, without further ado.

Here is my brand new detector's very first find for me.

I got a solid 84 - 86 hit with an occasional rise to 92. About 5 inches down, in pretty good ground.

Let the trumpets blow!

TAAAAH DAAAHHH! :icon_scratch: :dontknow:

Both coins were in the same hole, basically glued together. That explained the occasional 92. :dontknow:

Here's the rest:

Fair pile, eh? ;)

This one wasn't fair. :( It completely fooled me into thinking it was a ring. But, if you look close you can see the lens. It's a lens for a camera. :dontknow:

Anyone know Peggy from 1941? :)

All in all, somehow, I am not too sad. ;) A pretty good start if I do say so myself. My second half has begun. More to follow. Count on it! LOL

Thanks for taking a moment to peek.

Man you plucked the quarters it looks like. Great for a first outing of the At Pro. No, can't say I know Peggy. I have to question as to why the pendant has the loop where it does, cause, wouldn't it hang upside down? Cool finds! :)

I dunno, maybe people stood on their heads a lot back then? ;)

Thanks for the response!
