I have hunted the same few old homestead sites four-time now, three with my Ace 250, and now once with my Ace 400. Every time I hunt these spots, I dig lots of old typical homestead artifacts like old irons and axe heads. The property owner kind of acted like I was wasting my time. My persistence paid off earlier this week. After turkey hunting, I went metal detecting for about 4 hours. As I was about to quit in fustration, I found a 1940 Wheat Penny, and then found a 1936 Silver Quarter a few inches away. I was stoked! Before I left, I ran over to another homestead and searched for a while and found a WWI button (from what I can tell). All the time and effort I have been putting in to research and learn my detector(s) seems like it has started to pay off a bit.
