    Mystery iron

    Found another piece of iron that I cannot identify. It was in a wooded area that was once farm land. I found it in a section where there is more recent trash. I don't know if this is from The farming days or more recent. It is about four inches in Length and about 1.5 inches at its widest point...

    Buckles

    Found these two buckles recently. The larger one is curved and the smaller one is flat. Is there anyway to estimate their ages and what they might have been used for? I'm guessing the larger one was for a harness, but based on the tongue it seems to be curved in the wrong direction, away from...

    E-Trac vs V3

    I am considering buying both the E-Trac or the V3. I do not know a lot about Minelab or the E-Trac and would love to get your feedback. I am a little concerned about the V3 because the number of positive comments I see seem to equal to the number of negative comments. Any thoughts will be...

    Can you identify these pieces of iron?

    I have been hunting some local woods that were once farmland in the late 1800s and early 1900s. I found a few items that I cannot identify and I am hoping you can help. One find has a handle on one end and a on the other end there are two nails or rivets protruding through the metal. I provided...

    What's the best way to clean your finds?

    I moved into a new development about a year ago and most of the surrounding land is still wooded. I never would have guessed it was once farmland but I have been finding remnants of farming equipment all through these wooded lands. I have some items that I cannot identify and would like to post...

    Cortes and the 12X10

    I just purchased a 12X10 coli for my Cortes. It is providing false signals with nearly every swing, but it seems okay when in all-metal. Am I doing something wrong? Thanks. Joe

    Thinking about a V3 could use some opinions

    Hello All, I have been detecting for several years and have always used a Tesoro. I am thinking about trading it in for a V3, but some of the negative postings have me sitting on the fence. I would like your opinion of the V3 machine and about what I may expect switching from a Tesoro Cortes to...

    Plows and bullet casing

    In recent weeks I found three plows two marked Syracuse and one marked Vulcan 9. I would like to try to determine how old they are but have not found much on the Internet. Can anyone point me to a good source? I also pulled a rim-fired casing out of the ground, It is marked US (I am assuming...

    Ground Balance Video?

    I have owned a Tesoro metal detector for several years, but never spent much time with the ground balance. After my move to North Carolina last year I have been using the machine more and I think it is time to start using it as designed. Are there any videos on the Internet that demonstrate how...
