If you remember I bought the compadre just to hunt field sites with that I had already hunted with my etrac, sadly I only got out with it 4 or 5 times, maybe 15 hours total at absolute max. But nonetheless I was impressed with its capabilities in super heavy iron especially with the 8" coil. I found a few indians, shield nickel, merc dime, token, buttons, CW heel plate, couple wheats etc........I'm happy to have purchased it, and hope to use it more in 2014. Here is a group shot of what I found with it this fall.
