had an ace garrett 250 for about almost a year, not long after buying I found out the ace european is better suited to our high iron content soils. but nothing wrong with the 250 just spend time watching vids about it and copy what they do, it does help to be exact, lets just say that I found a threepence before I re-watched them all and copied to a t, since the no more silver but almost $50 in coins, several broken bits of jewellery a bullet and several lumps of copper.
dont set it up for him, go dig his holes until he has learnt himself, 8 holes today for 5 keeping items and 3 junk items, 8 months back it was 20 holes and all junk. |

because people believe what they read or just like to gamble with money. the only unsearched coin lots are those people have buried away after inheriting them, and never bothered to check em out. they can be found on eBay but that is very unlikely, go to clearing sales or deceased estate sales and buy direct.
guy around the corner has 8 old cake tins full, most are turning green and he will not do anything about them, they are most likely unsearched as he cannot even read or write, but worthless due to how he has kept them. |

I had some coins stolen, the culprit was caught outside the shop he cashed them in at. after explaining it to the shop they declined letting me buy back the coins at face value, some months later the second in charge was introduced to me as a coin collector, now I know why they refused.
you mentioned in the post office you where sending coins for grading,
"ooh said the clerk must be worth a lot, he thought"
i hope this isn't the case and they do turn up. |
