    Fourth gold of the year . . . South Wales.

    Managed to find my fourth gold ring of the year yesterday evening at a local beach. Would have been nice if it was a bit bigger and not so chavvy - but they all count! Out of curiosity what do you all do with the rings you find? Do you sell them on, just keep them or have other jewellery made...

    Gold found with the X-Terra 30 . . .

    Not sure if I have posted this before - I know I have on the beach detecting page, but anyway. I found this lovely ring a couple of weeks back (my 3rd gold of the summer). Turns out to be 22ct with a whopping great Emerald in the middle! Came from a local beach in the wet at about 6 or so...

    Detecting in Wales with an American connection . . .

    I joined a local rally on nearby farm land this weekend using my X-Terra 30 and was pleasantly suprised at how accurate it was.

    X-Terra 30 - exchangable coils, gold, sand help?

    Hello all I was under the impression that the X-Terra 30 was going to have exchangable coils made available for it. Can anyone confirm if this is going to happen or not? Also I am struggling to find an all weather cover to fit the X30 in the UK - any suggested suppliers? And another thing I...

    Greetings from the UK

    Greetings from Cardiff in South Wales. I am quite new to the whole metal detecting malarkee, but I am thoroughly enjoying myself. I have just purchased the Minelab X-Tera 30, which is due to arrive on Monday. At the moment I am using a cheap Chinese Import, but still getting suprising...
