Hi Dirt,
I had the New E trac pretty much open in the Iron mask mode with a setting of just the lower 1/3 portion blacked out everything else was open. I had read earlier that the Big Silver was disc. out in the coin program but I really wasn't looking for any specific targets (coins, rings, etc.) I was just taken her out for her first live run and wanted to get a feel for anything that made a peep. I went to a place that is very easy to dig and has lots of old deep stuff including lots of iron, few coins, thingamajigs, and whatsits all mixed up. I dug allot of junky targets just to see and hear how the E would respond. I was totally shocked when the black leather pouch came up and it was heavy...knowing the age of the coins I have found there I imagined it could of held a Gold coin before i opened it up. But Hey LUCKY is LUCKY and I was totally syked to have found two Silver dollars. I have found a total of 5 over the years in other places and they are all good stories to tell...one day.
Best of luck to you

I just have to keep braggin about these two Silver Dollars!
I have had the E trac a month now and am having an absolute ball with it! I will post all the stuff I have been finding soon but these Two Silver Dollars just kill me!
Since my wife just sees two dirty coins... and thinks I'm nuts anyway..., I thought I would bring this post/pic back up to the top just to get a few more looks for fun!
I know...livin in the past. But a find like that has me totally syked out...still.
good luck

HA Ha!
Fun to see this year old pic with my big silvers in it come up again! Lucky I am indeed as I have found 8 silver Dollars over the years (one from the side of an old chair) . But not sure if its my luckiest day- that might be the day I pulled up 7 half dollars I found in a 20 x20 area or it might be the day I found 5 gold rings in one hole? I'm brag-gin a bit but I kid you not...I have had lots of really great times though and I probably minimize the reality of trying hard to put myself in the right spot with the right equipment and determination. But like I say Luck ANY DAY goes a long way!
Good luck to you,
