Default F2 purchase

Hello All,

New to this hobby and dove into a new purchase. After reading several reviews and plenty of posts on this forum (thanks to everyone for their experiences), decided I wanted to get a F2 3 coil package. Wanted to pass along my very positive experience with Bart and Big Boys Hobbies. Bart was very helpful and prompt with everything. Good deal on the machine to boot. Cannot wait to start practicing and get out to try it.

Welcome!

The F2 is a coin hunter supreme, and don't forget gold and Indian heads and a ton of other cool stuff comes up under Zinc and Tabs.

Dig it all, especially at first!

Whereabouts in Michigan do you hail from?
