Whats the deepest you have found a coin with your Ace 250?

[Gulfcapt25]

Hello Everyone,
I just wanted to see what the deepest you have found a coin with your Ace 250? I really like my ace 250, I have been finding tons of clad, but it has been in the 2-4" range. I just wanted to see what some other people's expierences are with this machine. John

About 6inches

I found 3 Wheat Cents stuck together in one hole at about 5 inches. Strong penny-dime signal.

About 5 to 6 inches on a 1918 penny in good soil...It was VERY IFFY, and it is a miricle I dug it......That was with the sniper coil.....I have found a pulltab on the other hand at a good 8 inches..(for sure) The Ace would be great if it just had a tad more depth to it....Come on techies out there..............It is hard sometimes to say how deep coins really are, at least for me...Most of what I have found out of 100 to 200 coins with the 250 have been very shallow 2 inches or so....At the site I found the 1918, I know there is alot of other stuff there, just out of range of the ACE.......Tom

6 inchs seems to be the maximum depth for 250 for coin sized targets with the standard coil and average soil type. you can squeeze out 8 inches using the 12 inch coil in loamy soil.

The day after a LONG awaited rain , I went out in my yard for a
couple hours and found a '61 silver dime at about 8". I was
really excited so I went and got my camera and tape measure and
went to the hole , replaced the dime and put the tape measure down.
Ouch .......just barely over 6 inches :P , For me at least, those
holes have a way of growing deeper to the eye ball when you're all
excited. oh well I'm always happy to get silver at any depth

I've found coins at 8", but mostly 4" to 6" is normal.

Keep diggin'...

At or just shy of 7 inches........a mercury dime at a park in humid soil conditions. I was carrying around a small makeshift shovel at that time, cut a cone shaped plug, pulled it out and flipped it over. Because the soil was moist, it all stuck together. At the tip of the coil was a shiny rim. The dime signal was good and constant. I remember pulling a wheat at about 6 1/2 in dry soil. The signal was on the dime, but jumpy.
