Today I went out for a couple of hours in my subdivision to a school playground and came out with a few clad coins and some nickels. Just getting used to my AT Pro so I was happy with today's finds.

The very first step to finding good targets is getting to know your detector and this is a good start. Patience will get you there for sure. Good hunting.

One of those nickels almost looks like a silver war nickel. It always takes me a while to get used to a machine, but when I do, the finds increase a lot. Good, solid hunt. thumbsup01

Looks good! That AT Pro is a very versatile machine.

It's a 1954 no mint mark on it. Around the school yards and playgrounds I've been using the Pro Coin mode. It seems to help out a lot. Only problem is I'm getting pull tabs and foil at 70+ so I wind up digging them.
