Monday I took the Garrett AT Pro out for its 5th hunt.
I got a wheat and a tiny key charm.
Yesterday I took it easy on digging deep coins--------- I took the Whites IDX out for cladding. I dug a plated ring from the woodchips along with the clad, a souvineer penny and charm.
Today it was the Garrett AT Pros 6th hunt. I got 5 wheats, 2 silver dimes, a button and a bullet.
The 1st silver dime was less than 3 inches away from the pulltab that was right on top of the ground. I got both the pulltab reading and the dime reading with no problem. Even with the large coil the AT Pro does very well in areas with loads of trash to separate coin targets from the junk items. The dime showed to be 6 inches deep.
The 2nd dime was along side a line of trees and was only 4 inches deep. I have been out a total of almost 19 hours using the AT Pro. It is different than the Whites I have used and from the old Master Hunter I had owned many years ago. Each time I use it I like it more and more.
The area I searched today I had searched before with both my Whites and at least 6 other detectorists have searched the same park area, with all types of different detectors.
No place is ever hunted out.
