Went out Sunday to an old school yard that a buddy of mine has hunted before with his Nox. He told me that all the older stuff was deep 8" or more. He had cleaned out all of the shallower clad on previous hunts. Left my Nox in the car a pulled out my e-trac with the 13" Ultimate coil. The Nox is great detector but when I'm going after deep coin targets, it's the e-trac all day long! My first target was a deep wheatie and I continued to find 5 or 6 more before I hit the shiny. Everything was pretty much 7.5" to 8.5" down. Digging was a !!!!! because a big portion of the area had a layer of gravel about about 6" thick below the top layer of soil. About half the area had a layer of snow on it which made it a bit more difficult to get the coil down low enough to grab those deeper signals. Snow kept piling up on top of the coil which made it heavy and hard to swing. About an hour or so in th o it I went back over an area that my friend had just detected. He didn't leave much of anything for me until I came to a big branch on the ground that he detected around. I moved it and got a nice deep 12-45 signal on my e-trac. Popped out a nice merc while buddy just stood there shaking his head 
Last night I was going through my finds and I noticed the date on one of the wheats was a 1909. Could it be a VDB ? Yes!! Couldnt believe it. This one has been evading me forever.
Also found a small 10K pin with an old truck on it.
All in all, a good hunt!
