    bryce's settings vs charles in NY for the SE

    Well for the last month or 2 I have been hunting primarily in AM, ferrous sounds and using manual sens with deep on going very slow. This is a good way to learn the machine better for me. I improved my finds substantially with this technique but a few things bugged me about it. Iron will sound...

    ordered a new SEF 10 X 12 today

    Thank god I mentioned Bryce HIGHLY recommended this coil 'cause Kellyco then spared me the shipping.. I hope this improves my finds and allows me to jump up the sensitivity. Maybe I'll even get some m ore depth???????:clapping: If this is the "coil of choice" for a guy who's been at it for 30 +...

    help needed finding gold w/the SE

    Not many deep coins at my local hunting spot...a schoolyard closed a few years back. i would like to switch gears and try to find some gold w/o digging everything and avoiding as many pulltabs as possible. i like ferrous sounds but would move on if someone has a valid technique. I appreciate...

    ANother lucky find

    Yesterday I dug a LC at ~ 8". It is completely green but a bit of water took some off. Not the granular green but a fletter softer type.I will post a pic as soon as I can but am having software issues. You can see the face as the green patina is elevated over it. It has the classic "triangle" of...

    oldest coin to date for me!

    Well, my buddy (catskill comics) and I went out to the forest yesterday enroute to an old abandoned park. We checked it out friday afternoon as well but did not locate the foundations. SO Sat. we went back out with better directions. ~ a 3 mile hike and we arrived there and did locate 1...

    It seems that Bryce uses the pinpoint ID as the final dig decision

    Do u think that pinpoint ID is more accurate than normal mode as well? HH aaron

    Gotta tell you

    That recently I was at the same park for the um-teenth time. Yes we have pulled silver and wheats but none this day. I decided to switch gears and attempt to dig a few nickles. With that, I hope to find some gold figuring that pull tabs, nickles and gold will have similar digital numbers...

    very lucky guy

    My friend Catskill Comics had been doing some research and stumbled across a private property with some history. Turns out there were many foundations and communal living here many years ago. Although we have yet to locate any foundations, we did some detecting. Not having his phone with him, we...

    a hole in 3!

    Met up with my dfxer friend (scott aka catskill comics) yesterday and by the time I got there he already had a merc in the bag, so I was behind. I found this rind at~ 8" in sandy soil. It has stones, but IDK if there real. My wife thinks not as she says they usualy leave light behind them to...

    ? about a good signal

    Got a great signal today at 00 27. This is usually a quarter or LC (only dug 2). Love these especially when they're deep. This one was 8", however. 12" down and the signal is still there and no coin. Now I am thinkin it is deep iron, so my DFXer friend checks it for me and it reads 93 VDI for...

    A few more silvers

    Well, I was fortunate enough to get out today and hunt for a bit. Even luckier to have found a few items. 1st I went to an old swimming hole area that has produced before and I found a buckle and NY subway token. Not sure how old this one is, but my guess is pretty old. Not even sure what it...

    respectable day

    Spent the day w my DFX er friend and we went to the county fairgrounds for~ 3 hours. I pulled 2 silver dimes, a few wheats and this old lock. How cool when I also found the key a few feet away....wish I would have realized the end was broken or I would have looked for that too. My buddy found a...

    class ring

    Found this shallow target today in the same area where I found the LC. I usually dont dig shallow ones but it read 00 29...usually a quarter. I was surprised to see this come out. I will try to find the owner as it is a local school. Not sure if there are initials inside as there is something...

    another large copper

    ok so not USA, but I think an ok coin for a 1 hour hunt. Sure is the same diameter of a LC and I sure thought I had one. Crazy reading bouncing around but did land a few times on 00 26 and 27, my new favorites. Lost the signal in the hole but kept going. Then I saw the rim and was feeling pretty...

    1818 LC

    I must say I was excited after reading Charle's in NY's post and decided to take the advice and go to AM mode. Since then, my last 4 hunts have produced. 1st the 64 Kennedy 1/2 I posted the other day, then a barber dime, followed by a rosie and then this. I was only out for a brief hunt and 15...

    just made it

    2 hour hunt at pounded park with a friend in an out of the way area yielded the most consistent 00 27 I have ever seen. This reading refused to budge from any direction or in pinpoint. Must have been laying flat. Only about 4" deep. Also found a few wheaties in the hard pan. Sure wish it was...

    2 bottles unearthed?

    Oh yeah, I dug these two small , older WHITE avon type bottles in 2 separate areas of a park. 1 was empty...the other had some hair in it. My wife is concerned about a witchcraft type of spell I may have interrupted. What should I do with these items as it never crossed my mind when I removed them?

    I dont know guys..dont read this blah if u have a weak stomach. and don't send me a bill.

    I want to have the ultimate faith in my SE but am far from the man who can snake charm the coins out of the earth! My MD life is similar to my world of poker...so,so. I really put a fair amount of time in with much trial and error to, IMO, little avail. Ok, so to my major gripes: I am in the...

    dissapointment

    When I pulled this coin out I wasn't sure what it was. Thought 1/2 dollar, then I saw 1one penny. Next I saw king george and the heart started pumpin. Then I looked at the image and it looked a bit too modern. Well, looks like a 1950 New Zealand penny. It is the size of a USA 1/2 dollar:(...
