Hi all

Wanted to post a message after reading the forums from the shadows for the last month. Been detecting for about 3 weeks with an Ace 250 w/ 8x5 SEF coil. I am finding the research is just as fun as actually swinging the detector. Still not found anything beyond trash and clad, but that isn't going to stop me. Hope to see some of you around!

Hello from Northern Illinois & welcome to the forum. Don't worry about the clad and trash. Trust me, the good stuff is coming.
Best of luck to you.

Welcome to the forum! :waving:

Glad you came out of the shadows! :thumbsup01:

Lots of good people and useful information here. Like you, I enjoy the research as much as the finds. A person can learn a lot about the history of their surrounding towns.

Best of luck, and keep us updated on your progress!

Welcome to the forum! Where are you at in central Illinois? I used an ACE 250 for almost 2 years and did quite well. We look forward to seeing your finds. Best wishes and HH, Dave.

Welcome from Washington state. Every target helps to familiarize with your machine so don't worry about trash and clad. The clad is still spendable!

I'm outside Bloomington/Normal so pretty close to as central as I can get in IL. I just need to find parks were Tony hasn't already got all the goodies out of.

Welcome from Milwaukee! If you are already interested in the research as much as the finds, you'll fit right in here!

Good luck with that one :hystericallaugh:

Seriously, no one finds them all. Just keep hunting as if your the first one there. You never know.
