Default Allo tout le monde\Hi everybody

I'am from Canada(new-Brunswick) but born in Quebec. My first language is french so excuse my poor writing. I got into metal detecting last July 2009. I bought Garett ace 250. I must have spent 200 hours looking for coins, relics. I was spending more time with my metal detector than my wife.

2 weeks ago, Iwent for a trip in Maine and I bought my second metal detector,a White(prism5). I went to a park and I spent the digging for coins in order to get acquinted with the machine. Back to St-John N.B. it was a different storie. I had to run some test and discovered that the only way to find quarters.nickels and dime(25cents,5 cents, 10 cents) was buy using the metal button. So it is kind of a guessing game.

Any solutions beside moving in the States?
Bernie
