Hello All

[Chief48]

Back into detecting after several years away. Started in 77 with a Whites, had a couple since and just decided to buy a V3i. Wow lots have changed in technology but I still do like my first Coinmaster and will still use it for quick checks for areas I want to hunt. Look forward to the hints and tips and enjoying being back out again. From southwest virginia, so if anyone around this area give me a yell.

Your story sounds similar to mine. I also recently got back into the hobby after a 12-year absence. Can't wait to see your finds! Good luck and happy hunting!
