    son can't make his mind

    my son wants a new detector. has ace 250 now and is really good with it. he can't decide between at pro and xterra 705. i told him they are both great and probably pretty equal in performance. however i feel the xterra is more refined and has higher quality electronics in it. anybody else...

    coin depth

    if a coin were dropped around the turn of the century, say around 1910. how for down would the coin be about now? does it depend on the type of soil and the amount of traffic on it? does it also depend on how much rain has been recorded on it also? me and my son are going to hunt some home...
