Went back to my favorite courthouse for 3 hours last evening,2 Barbers,1 Merc,1 Indian,& 3 wheaties all with the SEF 8 x 6.

Well I guess Dr. Bob and I left a few from our hunt there a while back.The 1897 is a S mint .The Indian was burnt and I think it may have been burnt when the courthouse was burned the second time.All 3 dimes were at the 6" level in heavy cut nails.I think I am going to love this coil,Ray.
PS. Bob the 2 barbers and 2 of the wheats were on the corner right where we were hunting at dark.

Ray,

I gotta say you give me inspiration seeing the junk and the finds together in your photo's. That shows a person what you have to dig to get the good stuff.

Just wondering if you have the Sun-Ray 8" coil and if so, how would you compare the 8x6 to it. I understand that you haven't had the 8x6 that long, but any thoughts would be appreciated.

Way to go Ray!!!! I knew there would be more there. I hated to leave that night and would have hunted all night long if family wasn't waiting for me at home.

Looks like that 6x8 is going to be a winner for you, i would like to see what my 6" excelerator would do there.

Congrats my friend


BTW, I went out for a short hunt this morning and found one of those rare silver roosies you cant ever seem to find

I had the Sunray 8 and liked it a lot but it was not as quiet at high sensitivity like the 8 x 6.I still use the Sunray 5" and like it as well but the 8 x 6 covers more ground and gets more depth so far.It is starting to make me want to try another 12 x 10 sef as the first one I used did not impress me but I think it may have been faulty,Ray.
PS I am going to go use the 8 x 6 some more in a little while.
