<p><strong>I took my new CTX 3030 out for its maiden voyage Sunday and finished the day having accomplished crossing two goals off my wish list.</strong> Having found the nickel variety 3 cent piece in my backyard a couple years ago, I have hoped that sometime throughout my life I would find its matching partner in the silver variety.</p> <p>As of today, that wish is now crossed off the list! My very first target of the day with my new CTX 3030 and about 3" deep i got a nice hit at 12-32. I start digging and out comes an 1852 Silver 3 cent piece! I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw it!!!</p> [split] <p>I had no more than turned my CTX 3030 on and noise cancelled. I honestly had not been swinging for over 5 minutes when I got the signal. Needless to say, I would have been happy with my day if I didn't find another good target.</p> <p>I detected another two hours and dug numerous junk items. Figuring I would call it a day, I started up the path back to my vehicle. I continued to detect while walking. I got a nice signal at 2" reading 11-39,11-40....Dug my hole and saw a wheat penny.</p> <p>To be honest, I wasn't real excited when I saw it. I flipped it over and saw 1909 and then get that feeling inside me saying "could it be?) I flipped it back over, did a little wiping and there it is......VDB!!!! That is another coin I had on my list!</p> <p>Once I got home and soaked the coins in water I got to looking at the date on the 1909 VDB. I then start noticing what looks like a possible "S" under the date.</p> <p>A kind gentleman on a forum last night enhanced the photo for me with new evidence showing it is indeed a 1909 S VDB. <p>I couldn't have asked for a better day detecting and have to say the CTX 3030 is just so easy to use and find treasures with even in the hands of someone new to the machine. I am proof of that!!!</p>
