    Thanks Ron I think you will do well with it. It will be nice when your wife will go with you. After getting my E-Trac I encouraged her to try detecting with my Ace 250 and some days she would accompany me in a park hunt and she would walk and I would detect and we would have a picnic lunch. Then she decided she would try it and she had some fun especially when she found a clad dime spill at a park. But it was not until one Sunday after church we went to an older park in our area where it was said that if you found a wheatie you were doing good, it had been hunted very hard for a number of years. She decided to try detecting, we were in an area where I was digging a couple of wheaties when she called out to me and said "I think I got a Canadian coin or some kind of token" she brought it over and what she had was a 1908 Barber Dime! When I explained the significance of her find she got excited and then later she was very happy for me when I found a Barber Half dollar! I then got her a Minelab 705 and she did gangbusters with it in fact so well I got her a very nice used E-Trac and she really enjoys it so much now. She loves to do the farm fields with us here is a picture of her with a Large Cent she found late last year. Here is the video of this hunt maybe you can show it to your wife to show her "Girls just wanta have good finds too!"
