I was at the soccer field again for a few hours Monday morning. Picked up a few
more dollars in clad when an acquaintance of mind called and asked if I wanted to
go detect an old Drive Inn. No problem. He warned me that there was a lot of junk in
the ground so I went home, got both my MXT and Ace 250 and drove to his place a
few blocks away. We drove to the old Clairmont Drive Inn now all plowed up
He told me he had pulled three silver dimes out of there.
I put the 5.3 coil on the MXT and the Sniper on the Ace 250.
He brought his trusty old Master Hunter A7. He's had it for thirty years and he swears by it.
We hunted a couple hours and he danced circles around me. I tried the MXT with the 5.3 coil
but even with that the junk was so thick I finally took the Ace 250 out. The sniper coil did well
but by the end of our hunt he had a handful of quarters, dimes and pennies compared to my
few pennies (one wheat cent) and two modern dimes.
That machine of his is OLD but its a damned good one. It makes me think I ought to
go back to the old machines.
I spent a couple hours late this afternoon and dug up a bit more clad and a spots car I wish were bigger.
I'd love to have a little car like that.
