My finds from a hunted out homesite........

[Goes4ever]

well at least I thought it was hunted out....lol

this is my aunt's house, I have tightly grided this yard in at least 4 different directions with my ace 250, and I have found a lot of stuff there over many, many trips there. Last trip there I walked away with not much of anything, that was with the ace 250..................

today I went back for the first time ever with my minelab X-70.........wow. Look at all the stuff I found in a 2 hour hunt. 5 more wheats, few modern pennies, large brass key, a token of some sort that says "Tested and Sealed Ohio"

all the wheats were 6+ inches deep, so maybe that is why the ace 250 did not get them?? the brass key was at least 8" deep, registered at 44-46, the ohio token was also a 44, I was hoping for a silver half dollar, but I think this is a cool find.

The X-70 justs blows away the ace 250, but that is to be expected it is 3 times the cost, I am just very impressed with this machine the more I use it.
goes to show a site is never hunted out

Nice find. Took today off and I'm going for it again tomorrow at my friends old trailer park. What coil did you use?

There is a big difference in the machines, I had the Ace 250 and the XT50 (still have the XT50), no comparison when it came to deeper finds. Go back and re-hunt the yard in all metal, you might find some deep silver. HH

I used the stock 9" coil...........thanks for the info on the token

Congrats on those very cool finds! I really like the token and the key. Very nice hunting, Beale.

Real Nice finds. I think the brass key maybe a old clock key to wind up the old clocks.I am really glad I saved up a few more bucks to get X-Terra I was going to buy the Ace 250. This just shows what your paying more for.

the ace is a good machine, don't get me wrong, but it does not come close to comparing to the X-70, with the x-70 I find a lot more deeper targets. A lot better trash separation, response time is faster.

Nice finds.
I'm also going back to old sites and finding what others (and myself with older machines) have missed.
I'm loving my X-70.

You have some very interesting finds there. I really enjoy my XT70. I too have found quite a bit that my ACE missed, but know I'm starting to wonder what an ETRAC would find that I missed with the 70?
