Sap Moderator Australia 16883 Posts	Posted 02/13/2014 07:27 am Easiest way to tell, in this particular case: George III wasn't even born yet in 1701. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff

woodcr Valued Member United States 403 Posts	Posted 02/13/2014 2:27 pm I have plans for getting another metal detector years ago I had a fisher and a whites, both excellent, found pretty much nothing this time I am looking at ace 250 Report this Post to the Staff
mashisback Valued Member United Kingdom 287 Posts	Posted 02/14/2014 03:41 am I got an ace 250 a couple of months ago, it does me well, although I haven't found much useful with it, but it does detect well. I found it a little bit awkward as it is set up to detect USA coins, but I would definitely recommend it for use in the USA, good luck Report this Post to the Staff
