Hello all, my name is Nolan. I’m from North West Michigan. I’ve recently jumped into metal detecting and I’m a total green horn. I’ve been at it for about a week and I’ve found a lot of trash!!! Holy smoke at the crown bottle caps and pull tabs I’ve found.
I’m really enjoying it tho I’ve found some coins and hot wheel cars so it’s not a huge loss. My best find was pure luck a 1890 Indian Head penny and a copper cross.
I’m still learning my machine and buying tools but I think I’ve got a good start. Beaches are my favorite spot lots of loose change.
I’ve so far purchased a equinox 600 and a Garrett carrot. Broken a few garden diggers so I think a Lesche tool is next.
Thank you all for this awesome forum I’ve already read so much!!

from the Great Black Swamp in NW Ohio! Glad to see you’re having fun, and an Indian is a darn good find - you’re off to a fine start. Good idea to keep digging various signals as you’re learning the machine - it’s really the only way to get comfortable with what it’s telling you. As you keep at the hobby, you’ll naturally find yourself digging less trash, and the overall quality of your finds will gradually increase. 
Just kidding.(kinda) Welcome to the forum. We all learn stuff here. Now you have to get used to taking good photos and posting them too. Like that IH. There's a thread just for pics of those:
