Hello Everyone,
I've been metal detecting for 9 1/2 year and received my new Quattro on 09-02-05. I've been using it every second I can and have rehunted my front yard several times and it has given me 29 coins. Most are clad but 8 wheaties, a 1946 Nickel and a 1946 Dime along with a few other goodies and pull tabs, etc.
I usually hunt for Civil War Relics and have taken it to some of my hunted out sites. A couple weeks ago I found my first one piece convex US "I" Coat Button and a few other items. Friday (09-30-05) I searched two other hunted out sites and again today I hunted two more. Nothing special but this Quattro sure has a great nose on her! All the relics were either close to iron or had been missed because of too much discrimination!
The brass brouch and above was found on 09-30-05 and the items below were found today (10-02-05).

Thanks For Looking,
I'll Be In Touch!
Thanks For Letting Me Join!!
I LOVE DIGGING, Roger

Glad to have you on the forum. You will find a lot of nice people here. There are a bunch of relic hunters on the site. I am sure they will help you in any way they can. Those are some nice finds and I am sure you will find more.
