Cool, Just got home from work so I hope its here when I wake up so I can get it together and play with it for awhile before I go back to work. You will enjoy the stealth scoop. Put your foot on the back with slight presure and move the handle back and forth when your in the water and it will glide into the bottom quit nice. Paint the end of the handle with a bright color, so if your in deeper water you can find it if the waters a little mirky. Did you get the big one? After a day of pulling that around in the water you will know it. But I find water detecting so much easier on the body, then all the bending I have to do land detecting. I have had my stealth for three years and its the best scoop I have had. Working the river around here where everone tubes, it will dig into those rocky areas and you dont get it bent like some of the other I have had.

I went out in the 98 degree humid weather and dug all repeatable low VDI numbers.....only pulltabs and a few nickels....NO GOLD!!!! Throw in about 50 pennies and a couple dimes and quarters. Nothing to write home about!

Its here!!!!!!!!!

What did you find so far??????

First time out this morning with the AT Pro. About an hr and a half playing on the beach learning the setting, and then head first into the water.

9 Qts
5 Dimes
2 Nicks
17 Cu cents
12 Zinc
1 Sterling Hearts shaped ring, very small.

Not bad for the little time I was in the water. Worked all night and straight to the beach, but by ten this morning the water was getting pretty crowded. So its time for bed. I really like this new machine. Worked in the Std mode today will start playing with pro mode as soon as I get a little more used to it.

Go Pro mode.....89/90 are 99% of the time quarters (silver same)
.....................dimes are anywhere from 80 to 85 (silver 80-83).
.....................nickels almost always 53....a few 52 or 54.
.....................copper pennies......80 to 84....sometimes I get mixed up thinking dimes.
.....................zinc pennies....crusty 70 to new 78/79
gold rings I've found...................from 46 to 59. (have heard some in the 60's and 70's...but not me)
silver jewelry.......................from 80 to 85.

Watch out for the bottlecaps.

Lawn Dart!

Me and two of my detecting buddies went down to Virginia Beach the night of the 4th and hunted the beach all night. We figured there would be some goodies lost with the big crowds there for the fireworks. Well, there probably was some gold lost but we didn't find it...

I did find over $10 in clad, some junk earrings, a bottle opener and....these 2 silver rings

Had fun yesterday, will update tomorrow how the three days went. On the way too a couple different lakes today with my hunting buddy. I will run in the pro mode for the first time today.

Got out for a bit yesterday before it got to hot, no silver or bling.
