New to the Forum. I need help with my ACE 250! I am killing 1960's clad and wheaties at the old parks and it is great at the beach for rings and gold. My problem is no silver! I am using a DD 8.5 X11, again the clad is mid 60's numerous wheaties and 2 Buffalo's and a 1942 war nickel. What am I doing wrong?
Nothing...keep digging Silver will come. Welcome to Treasure net :icon_thumleft:

you have the same issue I have man. try some other locations. it seems to me the gear works- and your finding coins, just not old coins. move some place older or some place that hasn't been hit so bad. old ball fields, old churches, old parks- just keep trying- it's frustrating until you find some silver...just keep in mind it's best to dig pennies and pulltabs signals because that is where the gold might be...I've seen people on here posting that you'll dig about 100 or more pull tabs to one gold ring (I'm planning on proving it this weekend!)

good luck, welcome and please share your finds with us when you find some good stuff!

Your not doing anything wrong, you just haven't hit any silver yet! When you do, You'll Know It! What has happened in the past at some of the parks and schools is that some hunters have "Cherry Picked" the silver out of them leaving everything else. To cherry pick all you do is run your discrimination so high that you disc everything but silver out.

Try some older schools or ball fields in your area. If you hit the right spot you will find the silver and the ace will do it for sure. Search "Ace 250" on youtube, there is a guy that hunts an old park and is hauling in the old finds. Remember to not put all your trust in the meter.

Good Luck.
 

Do you think that you might have the discrimanate turned up a little too much?

your coil is to big to be acurret your reading to much ground and other junk in the ground and the detector won't i'd it properly. and it still mite be to deep for your detector to see... big loop or not.
