    Another Good Day

    I was able to get out again today and made a couple of nice finds. I think the earring is silver and I am not sure about the ring. There are no markings on the ring, but I was told the costume jewelry would not have the prongs bent over holding the small stones in place, the stones would be...

    Winter Detecting

    Thanks Jerry for the links on the rings. I think my friend needs to get the Claddagh ring appraised. There are a couple of very small stamps (marks) between the SD and the 375, might be older than he thought.

    Pull Tab Park II

    My favorite pull tab park continues to treat me well with another ring. Granted this ring won't let me retire but it is keeping my streak alive, that makes 4 rings this week; 2 silver 2 gold! I can't find any markings on the ring but the numbers on the E-Trac were high when I found it, It is...

    Another Gold Ring

    My buddy and I just got back from detecting a softball field and he got his 1st gold ring with his White's V3. Since we usually go detecting together I thought I would share this with everyone. He was with me when I found three rings a couple of days ago and was feeling pretty low. He is...

    Help with V3 II

    I posted a couple of hours ago asking for some help with my friends V3, well we just got back from detecting a softball field and I think he is liking his V-3 a little better now. Not only did he beat me in the coin count he got this nice gold 10kt ring. He did make some adjustments to the...

    Help with V3

    My detecting buddy got a V3 for Christmas from his wife. We usually go out together detecting, I use a Minelab E-Trac and do very well with that. My friend on the other hand is having a hard time with his new machine. He has a lot of experience with metal detectors and has been using an older...

    War Relic Find

    My friend and I were able to get out today for a couple of hours. We had planned on going to a nearby lake but there was too much snow. We decided to go to a local park instead. I got this hit (12/45) at about 8 inches, thought I had a quarter but found this instead. At first I thought it was...

    The News is Out

    If you watched the Today show, Matt Lauer and Meredith went metal detecting on the beach. Guess what they found, that rare and elusive pull tab along with a nickel. I guess they weren't using an E-Trac. We are going to have fierce competition now as people go out and buy metal detectors to...

    Another Winter Detecting' Day

    Starting to look like I am going to have to hang up the E-Trac until spring. Went out again today in the 20 degree weather, this time there was some wind. Had to pry the coins out of the ground because they were frozen. Did find a nice little silver ring and it was frozen in the ground also...

    Winter Detecting

    My buddy and I went out for some treasure detecting today in about 20 degree weather. The ground was frozen but the sun was shining and there was no wind. I found some coins; one quarter was in the middle of some elk poop. I did find a 1931 Canadian penny. My buddy managed to find a nice...

    Battery Charger

    I just finished my first reading of Advanced Field Methods for the Excalibur by Clive Clynick. He states on page 103 that if you leave your charger in the outlet with no cell attached, it will stop working. I had never heard of this, but I got up and unplugged mine. Has anyone ever had any...

    Sand Scoop & Underwater pin pointer

    I would like some recommendations on a good sand scoop. I need one with at least a waist high handle that can withstand the abuse of being lean on and moving river rocks. Reilly's looks like they make some nice ones. I don't want to say the money doesn't matter, but I hate buying something...

    Introduction

    I just recently bought an Excalibur II with an 8 inch coil. I have an E-Trac and usually hang out on that forum. I was so impressed with the E-Trac for how deep it goes and the accuracy, I figured the Excal would be a good investment. I went out for the second time today with it to the Boise...

    E-Trac and Excalibur II

    I know this forum is about Minelab E-Trac metal detector, but I was so impressed with the E-Trac that I went and got an Excalibur II to compliment my E-Trac. The E-Trac coils are water proof but if you get the control unit wet you have a very expensive nonfunctioning detector. Most of you know...

    Proper Technique

    I was wondering if anyone else is suffering from a sore elbow. I started noticing this in the middle of the summer; my elbow starts to hurt a little after swinging my detector. I started noticing it with my X-Terra 70 which is very light and now my E-Trac. I have tried using the arm support...

    Help Identifying Markings

    I was out metal detecting by a stream in the Boise foothills when I came across this rock with a strange carving on it. Of course my imitation took over and I thought I had come across a map for some cache of lost loot hidden nearby. (Always reading Lost Treasure) There use to be a lot of...
