    Default Any metal detectorist here???

    I have a Garrett 350 ACE and also my sweetest detector a XP Deus wireless with Gray Ghost wireless headphones. Mainly relic hunt and coin find but anything that I can unearth that is of any shelf talk I will gladly display.

    I have a cheapie one and have had a blast with it. It has an LCD display and tells you pretty much what you have found.
    Gathered up earrings and such around the firepit (as-requested) and has been used to find corner posts (of metal) .
    Take it to the sawdust playground and see who the future (and current) assholes are!
    Some kids will shove in and dig like crazy. Then claim the prize!

    I found a roughly 50+ year old broach in the shape of a leaf with the missing pin made of stamped copper! Nice little find in a yard of a old home that was about 80+ years old.

    I also found a Civil War musket ball on our property this past summer!
