Default New guy saying hi..........

Hello everyone. I stumbled acrross this site, looking for a good metal detector to buy. Looks like a great bunch of people here! I have always been interested in finding coins and had a great experience as a young boy, by finding an old coin collection in a canyon that was dropped by thieves that broke into someones house. I was 11 or so then. I had a big five metal detector back then, it never really worked well, so I got discouraged and only broke it out when someone lost somthing. So now Im back and have ordered the Ace 250. I'm planning on going back to the site that started it all, and see If I cant find some more treasure! I will be dropping by from time to time with pictures as I live in southern California and its summer time so the beaches will be packed! Thanks for reading.

Welcome to TQ!!! Happy to hear from a fellow So Calian. I'm in South Orange County. Went to a beach the other day and didn't find much with my Ace250. They're not good at all in wet salt sand conditions. Just thought I would let you know.

I sure can't wait to see what you find at that old site, though. It sounds fascinating.
