Finally got out... a little clad.

Nothing worth posting pics about, but the sun was shining and the temp was in the 50's. Needed to go out and try this XTerra 70 that's been sitting in the living room beckoning me!

Hoped to score some old stuff today where I went but no such luck. Came away with 1 quarter, 1 dime, 9 pennies, and a Canadian penny. The Canadian penny is in a hole with the dime and 2 other pennies.

Confidence is growing with the Minelab. Of course I dug my share of trash, but I got pretty comfortable with the penny signals. The quarter signal was a strong solid 44 that didn't waver at all.

I also introduced a friend of mine to the hobby and let him use the Ace 250. Of course, right off the bat he digs a 50 something Wheatie! He did get another penny, but he dug just about EVERYTHING he marked to get used to it. He did well for his first time out and I think I have a new hunting partner!

Thanks for checking my post and I hope this break in the weather has gotten a few more of you out!

Nothing like having a good partner. Makes going out that much more fun.

It sounds like you had a good hunt to me. I am a tad suprised at the 44 for the quarter. Mine seem to all come in at a 42? Well congrats on getting out and hunting. good job on the partner also, Beale.

Good you got out Beetle! I chopped a dime out of the ice a few days ago, only hit the dime 3 times, LOL. HH, Mike

sounds good, every quarter I have found was a solid 42, that is odd yours is 44?

Well, I only dug the one clad quarter... it was shallow and the ground was very wet.

I dug 8 quarters between yesterday and today, they all were a solid 42
