Excalibur II 1000 is in the House

Thanks for your advice and information. I will only be able to salt water beach hunt on vacation and I am really looking forward to doing that next month. I found a lot of junk jewelry and coins and brought back 14 rings last year using my E-Trac on the beach. My gold ring finds were right at the waterline or in the edge of the water and of course I was nervous about hunting that close to the water with the E-Trac, if the E-Trac was a water proof machine, it would be one of the best if not the best machine for that purpose IMO.

I have played with the Excalibur in the yard and dug some complete beavertail pull tabs and some pennies. I don't feel it will take long to get use to the tones, my pinpointing was a little off to the side but not bad maybe 2 inches off center but I have only dug half a dozens targets with it.

I am sure you will do fine with your new machine. Now the more important question is the two inches you refer to on the tape measure or what you explained to your wife when you met her and advised her what 10" was. LOL YOu will be fine I can read and see you will master this machine in a very short while.
I have got to get one and try them out as I am new and the only machines I have ever used are the two I own, Everyone raves about them and thier depth and I am really interested in taking one out one day just to try.

I dug several targets, left the machine in disc. mode and dug all targets center of my plug, some where merely a couple inches and some were 6 inches deep. And Tape measure depth Briley not the other, LOL.

This yard is littered with matchbox cars and pieces of matchbox cars, the kids that lived there before must have lost everyone they had. Dug some 70's pennies too.
