Rich, I always enjoy the story you tell as you relate you're detecting trips. And I appreciate it knowing which detector model, search coil and settings anyone uses. Thank you.

As for getting lucky, I'm referring to finding a Buffalo nickel with a readable date because so many of them can be difficult to impossible to read. And as I noted on the post where are you and Lisa hit cobra, you also found one of my favorite-looking US coins.

And then when we get to using a very good detector, thanks to your photos, I can see you are with that Garrett AT Pro-Pointer.

Couldn't resist.

I use three of them with my Apex's, an MI-6 with my ORX, and Pulse-Dive Pointer with my Nokta FORS units and Tesoro's.

I hope you can find a few more potentially good un-woeked areas of parks you haven't visited befire and have equal success.

Monte
