hey whats up bro, im finally getting a metal detector, and im deciding which one to get, so hows the ace 250? does it read gold? and all and what have you found to date? also can i find jewelry like silver, cause i was told that the ace 250 is mostly for coins, so i just wanted to know, ttyl, HH

@silvercoincollecter So far I've found about $150 worth of coins, and another $50 worth of jewlrey. I found a platinum dog tag that could of been easily worth $300-400 dollars, but I returned it to the owner. The Ace 250 reading on gold is the 'pulltab' symbol. So be sure to not block out pulltabs. I use the 'Jewlrey' mode, and contrary to what it says, you can find coins as well as jewlrey. Also, the pulltab symobol isn't blocked out, so if you come across jewlrey it's bound to beep.HH.

@Coins4Cheese cool bro thanks for the info and one more thing, is the coil on he detector waterproof?

[Coins4Cheese]

@silvercoincollecter No prob man. The coil is waterproof. You can detect in water as long as you don't get the control box wet.

[silvercoincollecter]

@Coins4Cheese cool

@silvercoincollecter Oh ya, also, the reading on silver for me jumps around at the coin range. But if you do get a 250, get a silver coin and run it across and see what it reads up as.

Garrett only made American and a European versions. You have the U.S.A version I see.

Looks like metal detecting is as much art as science. =^[.]^=
