[QUOTE="Bluegill, post: 314391, member: 1748"]I’m pretty excited – I got an Ace 250 for Christmas. I’ve only used it a little. My brother got one, too, and that afternoon we were both in our parents’ yard, digging. I found a quarter (1985) within five minutes, and then a nickel. My brother has spent more time there, and has found more coins and a 1929 cent. He’s also found toys that we must have lost decades ago. He went to a large park here in town and found 75 cents but nothing old. I have little time to go out, with two small children at home, but I’ve been spending plenty of time reading about it and getting site ideas via the Internet. In my own yard and the yard of the abandoned house next to ours (both houses date to the late ‘70s) I’ve found pennies and dimes. It is a plus that my wife thinks that the idea of my brother and I detecting together is “cute.” The temps have been well below freezing for a couple of days, but it’s supposed to be warmer this weekend.[/QUOTE]
