    #50 for 2010

    I went out for 3.5 hours solo today and was hoping to unearth 5 or 6 more silvers, however, the silver gods wouldn't allow it. I did , however, locate # 50 for the year! That's my best year in the 3+ I have been participating in the hobby. What's really more amazing is that when I heard this...

    dime grand slam

    Not as nice as Bryce's but still nice for me. A freind called me last night and said he was going out in the AM. I hadn't been out all week, so I made the time to go and glad I did. My first goodie was a merc. I showed Scott and he already had one with a small ring and a religious pendant. A...

    My SE, that is with the goddess of love ...although, you may recall, I did get propositioned by a lady whilest detecting once. She wanted me to help her find her earring. When I asked where she thought she lost it, she replied ,"in my bed". :yikes: Anyway, I decided to hit an old spot where...

    LC or not? Plus my new bowtie

    Back at the local park for another round :starwars:. Yup we've all pounded it and I've come out of there with my tail between my legs more than once :crylol:.....guess I'm a glutton for punishment. Well, tonight I did ok. I've come out of here without many a signal at all many times. At least...

    Etrac vs. SE?

    I've been thinking of getting an Etrac for a while now even though I have only had the SE for ~ 14 months. I know on the Explorer forum they will chide me a bit for saying so, but so many folks are killing it with these machines. I enjoy my machine, but think I should have the best as my parks...

    lost and found

    Went out Sat. with a friend to a few sites. Ended up at a park we've been working for a while. Of course someone else has already ravished the place but left a few goodies behind. Anyway, I ended up with 2 quarters and my bud had 2 dimes. The '46 was really a surface coin just below the sod. I...

    Guess I need some advice

    So an experienced friend of mine made some changes for me on my machine. I don't really know what he did other than go to conduct, IM 22 and altered the reject and accept buttons. I have been an open screener with ferrous tones for sometime (except in extreme trash) for some time now. When we...

    halo effect

    Did u ever notice that next to every bad signal, there's a potential good one? How many times have you heard what could be a nice deep, good tone only to discover it was the halo effect coming from a piece of junk nearby? The only way I know to discover this (besides digging) is to pinpoint over...

    trade token

    I don't remember finding one of these before, but I do like them. THis one sounded good in the ground, though a bit broken. When I got it our, I couldn't find it. I eventueally saw it laying on the ground and was wondering what it was as it is a bit larger than a penny. Not sure why the signal...

    Spanked Copper

    Wow, found this in an area I have not hit hard because I have found very deep clad coins here. Yes, i was fortunate enough to find my 1/2 reale not 50' away, however, I have stayed away from this area. Well, at ~ 5" I found this spent King George...doubt I'll get a date off of it, but it still...

    interesting readings

    I have never experienced a reading such as 31-00, however today I was hunting at a spot I have several times before and got a -00 on conduc many times. I do not ever recall getting these before...anyone else get them? Also, I have been too lazy to dig deep targets with good tones that read with...

    Finally gettin the hang of the SE

    Well, it has been ~ 1 YR. since I first fired up my SE. The learning curve was huge (especially for a SLOW LEARNER like me), however, I am now feeling as though i am in a comfort zone. I still struggle, but I am able to better navigate the dirt a bit better. Although I can't imagine all the...

    large Cent

    I have been hunting the same park for quite a while. Today I decided to dig a lot and hope to find some gold. I left my coin settings on so , I was also looking for deep signals as well. After maybe 50 can slaw/pulltabs, :crylol: I scrapped the idea and had a few nice deep signals, however, only...

    1 Reale

    Dug this well worn Reale at 5" during a 45 min. hunt this am after 7 am hockey! I am told the fertilizer used will eat silver up. Came up as a dime ...thought it was aluminum as it is very light and about the size of a nickle though much much thinner...hence, I scratched it whilst rubbing it on...

    whispered from the depths

    At 12", this is the deepest coin I have ever dug. 20' from where i found the reale last month, I have been over this area several times. I have to attribute this to my new 10x12 SEF coil. :beers: This whispered to me at a constant 00 29/28 . Sometimes this is a false signal as it is too good to...
