Ive been MDing abou 3 years now. Started out with a Garrett Master Hunter I bought at flea market for 50 bucks. Then switched to a Discovery 3300 So Ive been digging clad for a while. Three weeks ago I went top of the line and bought a GTI 2500. Day one I was skeptical. Day 2 I felt a little more at ease. Now Im very happy. In Three years time Ive dug 3 siilver coins. 2 roosevelts and a Walking Liberty Half. Plus 6 wheat cents. In The past 2 weeks Ive dug 4 mercurys, 1 Roosevelt, 1 Franklin half and 6 wheats. Also I got a 1930s Chevrolet pinback badge. Also this week something weird I posted in the Whatzit forum. This is one great hobby Thanks to people like Charles Garrett. The six Silver coins Ive found W/ the GTI were in lots I had previously hunted and when I go I like to stay a while. Thats All for now but I will be itn touch,.
