I have only been detecting for less than a year now, and only 1 month of that have I owned a White's detector. For most of 2001, I have plinked along every area of opportunity for any coins and Civil War / Indian Wars relics I could find. Being able to afford only an electronics store brand detector, I had no idea what I was missing. Finally I was able to purchase my first of your line of detectors, a Classic I.D. After my first day out, (the second week of December), I was sold! I headed to a spot in which I had become familiar with, on a friends farm. In the past it has given up a few US eagle coat and cuff buttons, as well as a few coins. I have always enjoyed hunting his property, occasionally with a few detecting buddies, but recently was thinking it was about hunted out. My first target of the morning was an eagle coat button, 6" deep, and gorgeous. I was sure I had hunted this particular section before, and to my surprise, I had missed more targets than ever expected. After two hours of hunting this area I had found two more eagle coat buttons, 3 Liberty V nickels, 4 Mercury dimes, and 2 Indian head pennies. I was astonished at the day I had, and how well my new detector performed. Little did I know this was only the first day of many similar to come. Over the next following two weeks, I hunted several other areas with two of my detecting partners, both of which consider me to have an un-ending streak of luck. I have been able to find 6 separate "pockets" of coins, numerous eagle coat buttons, ( three of which retain almost 90% of there original gold guilt ), 2 gorgeous cavalry coat buttons ( also with 90% guilt ), a civil war era cavalry spur, as well as numerous other coins and relics. The areas we hunt in have been hit by quite a few detectors, but were far from empty. Thanks Whites!
