    Silver Nugget question

    What VDI number will a Silver Nugget produce on a Whites MXT while in Coin/Jewlery mode? I think I may have found a silver nugget but would like to hear anyone else's experience. Thanks!

    Hunting Old Home Sites

    Good Morning Friends. Yesterday, I was doing the front yard of a house built around the time of WWI. My finds, other than trash, were 1 quarter, 2 dimes and around 50 pennies, all memorials. I was beginning to wonder if I was hunting an old wishing well site. So my questions are these. 1. Is it...

    MXT Kindergarten

    So my MXT came this week and I have been out with it twice. Saying the MXT is an upgrade to the Bounty Hunter Tracker IV is like saying a Ferrari is an upgrade to a tricycle. Every single swing, the display shows, "iron", "$1", "ring, pulltab", "1, 10", "50", "overload", etc.... I am thinking I...

    I did it!

    It took a month, but I finally ordered my MXT today from Kellyco, one of the advertisers on this site. I talked with Wanda and it was a very good customer service experience. I hope to post some great finds this summer!

    North (Yankee) or South (Dixie)

    http://www.angelfire.com/ak2/intelligencerreport/yankee_dixie_quiz.html For fun, take this test and let us know if tend to lean towards the NORTH or the SOUTH. I am 58 percent DIXIE. THE SOUTH WILL RISE AGAIN!

    Simple Question

    I have asked the question about Whites MXT vs. Minelab's Xterra 70. I think I am 90 percent sure on going with Whites. But I have one very simple question, and a simple YES or NO is all that it needs. If I search over the exact same ground, will the Whites MXT find more coins/treasure than my...

    How much clad?

    I was just wondering, what is the most clad you have picked up in a day? In a month? My best day total is close to $4.00. Has anyone ever found over $100.00 clad in a month? I am going to shoot for a $100.00 in June, but I only got $1.80 yesterday, so maybe $50.00 would be more realistic? I...

    Question on pennies!

    Put your hand in your pocket, change purse or other coin holder. Pull out all the change you have and count how many pennies there are. When I do, I get 5 quarters,7 dimes, 3 nickels and 2 pennies. I have had friends do the same thing, and the smallest amount of coins they have are pennies...

    Whites MXT vs. Minelab's XTerra 70

    I have asked this question on the XTerra Forum so I will ask it here too. I am debating between the White's MXT and the Minelab's Xterra. I know the differences, weight, number of batteries, interchangeable coils, dials for touch pad buttons, etc... But what I want to know is "in the field"...

    XTerra 70 vs Whites MXT

    So I called Kellyco today to order a Whites MXT and the Salesperson told me I should also consider the Minelab X-Terra 70. I live in the high country of Colorado where there is lots of gold in the ground as well as old mining camps, mines, along with the schools and parks. So what is the...

    Selling Your Gold

    Have any of you sold the gold you found to one of these "online" or "television" companies that claim they buy gold? I am thinking of selling some of my uglier junk and was just wondering if anyone had any experience with any of these companies and can make a recommendation?

    Which would you chose?

    I have a Bounty Hunter IV and love detecting, as most of you do too. I am thinking of buying an upgrade and letting my kids use the BH T4. If you could buy an upgrade and want to keep it under $1,000.00, which would you chose? Minelab Whites Garrett Another one? I live in the Rocky...

    Unusual detecting surfaces!

    I was just wondering if anyone has detected some unusual surfaces? Our local High School, which was just built in 1998, used a lot of 'rock' in the landscaping. When I say 'rock', I mean stones that range as small as a cantelope to as large as a watermelon. Just trying to walk on it to detect...

    Coin Value

    On a different message thread, someone posted a link to a nice site to use to get the value of Coins. Now I can't find that site. Can anyone help me out here? Thanks and HH.

    What will become of the penny?

    Since 2005, the U.S. Mint has been paying more to make a penny than it is actually worth. The current value of the mostly-zinc and copper penny is approximately 1.26 cents. With Congress looking to cut costs: enter the Coin Modernization and Taxpayer Savings Act of 2008. The resolution...

    How deep is it?

    Yesterday, I did my first search of the yard, of a house built in 1909. I found 3 quarters, 4 dimes and about 20 pennies. But what amazed me was to find "State" quarters six inches down. How does a 2 or 3 year old quarter get so deep so fast. Doing the math, if a 3 year old quarter is six...

    A Myriad of Questions, Part 1

    I have posted previously with some questions, and now I have some more. 1. Does anyone have a type of "form letter" to use to ask permission to detect on private property? I am sure the owner wants a release of liability, possibly a share agreement, reassurance that no damage will be done and...

    Daughters Soccer Game

    Today, my 12 year old daughter had a soccer game at an Elementary School I had not detected yet. Then again, I have only gone detecting about half a dozen times with my Tracker IV. Found $3.22 in clad, about typical for a couple of hours at an elementary school. But I also found a nice...
