I decided to go with the new Minelab Musketeer Advantage, having good success with the older style (Green) Musketeer in the past I knew it would be a great detector for hunting Civil War Relics. I had permission to hunt a Civil War Confederate Cavalry Camp about an hour away. I had hunted this site several times in the past with lots of different brand's of top of the line detector's. To be honest I did not have much hope of finding too much since that particular site had been detected pretty hard in the past. After arriving, within just a few minutes, I heard my first response and it sounded like a good target so I got out my digger. Since I had hunted this site several times in the past I knew how deep most of the relics were going to be, or so I thought, after retrieving a target which was about two inches deeper than anything that I had ever dug at this site before...it was like hunting the site for the first time...Oh yeah I forgot to mention the first target that I got with the Advantage was a CW pistol bullet... I've used it at several of my old detecting sites in the past 30 days from Dalton, GA to Atlanta, GA - I'm amazed each time that I use it. Thanks for a great detector. In the photo you will see a few items that my wife Leslie and I found (don't forget, family hobby) while out metal detecting in February of 2003. While out using our Minelab Musketeer Advantage (with a 10" coil), these items were all found at sites that we have hunted in the past. The round item in the center was found at a site where we have found Civil War Relics in the past, but I do not know what it is for sure yet. It's made of brass and it has some type of crystal or marble in the center of it (could be a rosette or hat pin). The item below it is a Civil War belt buckle keeper, there is a number in the top left hand corner that will match the number on the belt buckle (when we find it). This belt buckle keeper was found at an old home site. One item that I really like in the photo is the ladies silver wedding band which was also found at an old house site (being small and thin like this ladies sterling silver wedding band proves a great metal detector). This house site goes way back, I could tell by the metal that we were digging. They did not have electric and they did not have a car, this was a old site that we found with our Advantage. Also in the photo you will see flat buttons, Indian head pennies, Civil War bullets, pocket watch parts, knapsack parts, etc. All of these items were dug in the North GA area. Minelab User - GA, USA
