Well, it only took 10 years of patiently waiting and collecting all the beach gold and clad I could, but she's mine!
I finally was able to get that CTX3030 and received it a couple days ago. I got the 17 inch coil FREE from Minelab and bought the 6 inch coil for the really trashy areas as well. She got her first hunt in the books and I have fallen in love with her already. I hunted in the RV Park we stay at and to say the ground is full of trash would be an understatement. Add to that fact that there's probably not much left in the ground in the way of coins because I've been hitting this place with the Equinox 800 and the E-Trac since we got here in April of 2021. I did find a few coins in places I know the Equinox has been (not sure if the E-Trac has hit those spots) and not found anything. So I've got great finds expectations for the 3030 this year coming up and for many years to come!
And I tried to get a video of the first find, but my camera corrupted most of the video files. Here's what I could salvage:
