    Wish you the best of luck. A friend of mine found a 1877 Indian Head while using his metal detector. I told him he was joking. Then he brought it in, I was floored. So just keep that in the back of your mind when your looking tomorrow!

    Good Luck,
    Stan

    That works, I have two now the quick braw/ whites gt But the gt is better for gold/silver and the whites is better for junk! But juck sometime ends up being more than one coin at one spot so I like it. good Luck and if I go out today I will post a pic of my finds....Just not sure if I am going out I have to make a stained glass window for a friend for his home.

    i wish i had a better one but it was what i could afford at the time $100 and it came with a pinpointer . the battery case on the pin pointer was cracked so i got a refund of $30 which makes the total $70 and the pinpointer still works so im happy

    I have never used a pin pointer, But I Got one in the mail to day I ordered off eby, And i will try it out. If you want a better metal detector watch cragslist winters coming and some will sell when they need cash, I know a guy now that tols me a few days ago he had a garret 3300 for 200$ or trade But its a 600$ metal detector But green
