    I found Flipper at a School Playground!

    Decided I would test out the old Ace 250 before I let my Nephew bring it with us this weekend to the beach. So I went down to the local School Yard and dug up a few coins, assorted trash, and Flipper! [attachment 57819 May221.jpg] [attachment 57820 May226.jpg] Who says you can't find gold at...

    Went detectin in the Dark last night and forgot my flashlight.

    I didn't need the light anyway, the Excalibur gave that Unmistakeable tone for gold. Took me a while to figure out it was a Horse ring. [attachment 56787 005a.jpg] The rest of the loot [attachment 56789 001a.jpg] Most of this stuff seems to have been in the ground a while, besides the...

    Finds from Yesterday, not too good:ranting:

    Before going yesterday, I checked the tides at a different website than what I normally use, Big Mistake!! Thought the low tide was at 7pm turned out to be 5pm. At least I'll use this as a good excuse for why I didn't find anything of value. Just some junk ring with CZ's and another stinkin toe...

    Catching up on Posts for last three weeks - Silver and Gold

    Havn't posted anything in the last three weeks, noticed that the gold items have been rather sparse with everyone else too, just a few lucky pirates here and there. Is that the way it usually goes this time of year?, is this the calm before the storm? I hope so, I've found a few good items but...

    To dig iron signals or not to dig iron signals, That is the Excal Question?:surrender:

    I've noticed that sometimes if a target is really deep that the Excal will sometimes give you the wrong signal. i.e. a high tone for Gold. And the more sand you remove the more accurate the tone. But I was thinking if it will sometimes give a high tone for gold, isn't it just as likely to give...

    Suggestions on Scoops??

    Anyone have any suggestions on scoops, I was kinda leaning toward gettin a stainless steel scoop. Do these cut through the dirt any better than an aluminum. The one I have now is aluminum 5" wide * 7" deep. Back in the summer when I actually tried water huntin, trying to dig a target was...

    First Gold of 2007, and a rock too!

    10k White gold diamond ring. Ok, it's not a huge rock but it looks to be a little smaller than my wifes 1/4k diamond earring. A personal best after owning the Excal for just a little over three months now. Too bad the earring wasn't a real diamond. I also snagged a gold cross, pretty good...
