Silver finds with XLT

[brandy]

I havn't posted any finds in a while because I've been trying to learn this new XLT I just bought. I've hunted with a Bounty hunter for the last 3 years and have found many treasures with it except for older silver coins. I finally decided that the older stuff was hiding deeper than the BH would go, so I took the plunge and purchased a Whites XLT. I'm still trying to learn this machine, but as you can see my silver finds have improved dramatically. The quarter and merc came this evening from an old church site and the rosie and wheats came from an older football field along with the ring last Saturday. So I think i'm going to get along with this machine rather well. Oh yeah, there are possible diamonds in the ring, but couldn't get them to show clear in the scan.

Gotta love that XLT, makes MDing that much more addicting knowing you've got the equipment....just have to find the time.

Nice finds Brandy, you're going to like that XLT! Pay close attention to those aluminium scrap tones, they're trashy but sometimes silver does too. I occasionally get a crap VDI and a similiar trashy tone almost like aluminum crap but it just sounds a tad better and out will pop a silver coin. HH, Mike

Brandy from your pic the ring looks like the engagement ring I bought for my wife a few years ago hers has 3 diamonds in it and is either white gold or platinum so if it is you paid for the xlt right there. Nice finds good luck with the new machine.

Hey partner--let me know how the XLT I works out. I'm in the market for a new machine. I'm tired of promises and want results.

Did you do an air test? I'd compare the Bounty Hunter with the XLT I in air tests. I've found that poor results in air tests means poor ground penetration.

congratulations on your silver finds and the new detector. i have a bounty hunter time ranger and have found coins up to 9 inches deep with it. may be the type of ground i am hunting though. keep on digging !!!

Nice Finds, I am in the market for a new Detector myself. Can't decide on the xlt, MXT or the dfx.

Cbrink, if u have a really good budget, get the DFX or the Explorer II, if u have a medium budget, get the XLT, i have one and have had it for four years now,
and its satisfied me all the time, if u got a low budget get the MXT, never used it but i have heard it was good, i now have an Explorer II, and have used the DFX on many occasions, i would go with the EX II if i were u, but if u are devoted to whites detectors, then get the DFX, but i am recommending the EX II to u, so HH CS
