fairly often, I'm using programs you were gracious enough to share with me. I really love Bushwhack and Ghost Town, while my coin production hasn't seen great increase with the programs, my relic finds have greatly improved. I bought a 5.3 coil 2 weeks ago, and that has been quite a buy. Modern coin caches that I've passed over countless times have been showing their faces almost daily. I average 30-something coins per hunt, but have had as many as 67 in 2 hours due to a few caches I found my first hunt with the 5.3. I've yet to find my first silver coin however. My oldest coin to date being a 1940 wheatback at 5 inches. I noticed you mentioned suffering on nickels with the XLT, I most certainly suffer on those coins as well, but in the 2 weeks I've had my new coil, I've found nearly a nickel roll's worth. I have found multiple silver rings and one 1930's white gold band. Slowly but surely, I'm learning. I hope to find my first silver coin, with the aid of your programs and my new 5.3, in the not so distant future. Oh, I think the best find I've made with Ghost Town is a 2 piece sterling silver button, that was a real treat. Anyway, I just wanted to thank you for your help and your posts and share my current detecting situation. Thanks again!

It was my first hunt in almost a week due to sunburn and burn out! $4.25 in clad and a junk ring. 1 53-d wheatie and one wheatie that looks like it has been swimming in the dirt a long time...help on cleaning it please!
4 golfballs though!
