Hey everyone. New to the board and newish to MDing. I got semi into it when I lived in Arkansas but haven't done anything with the hobby since 2005. I moved back to Central Illinois in 2008. I ordered an ACE 250 last week and she just arrived today. Going to an old house site at my parent's farm to see what I can find tonight. Wish me luck!
 
Good luck LOL let us know what you find!!:detecting:
 
Have fun....the Ace will get you some goodies if you know what it's telling you !!
 
Good luck with your adventure . Did you get the Package deal with the all the goodies? If you dont have a pinpointer get one. I still use my 250 as my back up . Heres a couple pics of 4 months detecting of half the stuff I found last year with the Ace :thumbup:
 
you will like your ace 250 i like mine happy hunting :super:
 
If you get the bong-bong effect when swinging try to make a completely level swing and lower your sens. as it helps..Lots of bang for the bucks..
 
I went out in my back yard and found about 15 or so modern pennies before I headed out to the old house site. I found tons of trash like beer cans and old metal pieces off farm equipment, but no coins. I did find an old metal button and a shiny tag with "C.I.M.S Ltd. Peoria, IL" stamped into it. Its not magnetic so I'm not sure what metal its made out of. I googled CIMS and it stands for Central Illinois Mortuary Services. There aren't any graveyards anywhere near the old house site. My parents had the place burned down in a controlled burn with the fire department then everything was pushed into the cellar about 12 years ago. I believe they had some fill dirt moved in so most of the good stuff is probably too deep. I'll get some pics up when I get off work. I was searching in coin mode with the sensitivity on 4 bars.

I ordered the detector from Kelly Co so it came with some low quality headphones pouch and a plastic scoop. I went to harbor freight and picked up a pin pointer earlier this week.
