Been off of MD'ing for a couple of years due to retirement, cancer and moving but yesterday I finally broke out the old XLT for a test drive.. I had to remember a few things about operating it (still reviewing some old materials). My landlady wanted me to come across the street to her place to use it in her garden area so I did so. Didn't stay long but was able to find some 'junk' and some items that were just too deep in hard pan (I will go back after a few rains and the ground softens up). However, I was able to find a 1921 10-centime (french) piece and a newer 20 centime coin. The older coin was interesting because it was my first find since moving to France and the coin had a center hole in it and was in really good shape...... so, now I guess I need to go out more often, right?!.. (and I need to focus on that new MD next month?).

RobRoy59,

Thanks.. As a courtesy, I left the coin with the landlord. However, I will take a photo and post it for anyone who wants to look at it (if I can get a good photo...it's the size of a US dime). Hope to post other finds in the NEAR future...Coloma Gold

Congratulations on getting out with the XLT! Detecting

Yes, you do need to get out more often. Detecting

Hi ARR!,

thanks for the Welcome... Yep, the more I read about the finds on this website and the technical help (not withstanding the encouragement) the more I am itching to order my new detector.... I'll let you know.. I still like me XLT but 2 frequencies sounds inviting... Coloma Gold
