    Button Field gives us other treasures - G2

    I posted a few shots of the buttons and coins from the button farm I have been hunting. I didn't included this shot of the field iron I dug. There are some pretty interesting pieces so I will share it now. Don HH

    G2 scores cut coin and Eagle button from Indiana.

    Wow, I am still doing back flips after today's hunt. I have an old farm site that I have always called the "button farm" since I always find buttons and no coins. I have probably found a dozen or more buttons. They are usually flat and plain but today I got a nice surprise. When I got home...

    Boost Me Through The Corn Field

    Hunted a couple of old home sites in Central Indiana close to the river. I was mostly using the G2, trying to see how it handled the nails and debris. The last site of the day turned out to be a corn field. I pulled the F75 out and ran boost to try to get through the stubble and down stalks...

    G2 snags an 1868 nickel

    Got away today for a farm field hunt. One of the guys in our metal detecting club found a nice map and got permission to hunt a site that went back to 1863. He was nice enough to invite a few of us along. There was plenty of evidence of a structure. Nails made the G2 sound like a machine gun...

    My G2 finds are starting to show up.

    I have told a lot of folks that I was off to a slow start with my G2. Not a lot of hunt time and a tendency to pick up my LTD has kept my finds down on my G2. My biggest find was the loaded hand gun that I found for the local police. Now that I can get into some of the fields I finally can...

    CZ 70 Pro

    I bought a CZ 70 pro last year to take to California to hunt beaches. I thought it was perfect, since the box was a quick disconnect and I could carry it on the plane and send the rest through my luggage. i only got to hunt two beaches and I had pretty good luck. I hit a nice heavy silver...

    East Coast Guys - Heads Up Great Gatsby

    I just saw a video on the Great Gatsby mansion from the Robert Redford movie. It gives the property owners name. He is tearing down this huge mansion with a tremendous history. He hopes to redevelop the property. Just a thought, but a guy might get permission to hunt this amazing place. If...

    G2 Produces a first for me, armed and dangerous

    Got a phone call today while I was getting ready for an appointment. City police had been told I had a metal detector and they needed my help. I got the info and called my local club president. Told him to rally the troops. I didn't think I had time to help but gave him the details. Police...

    Ever seen a Beachcomber? Little Whites

    I ran across this little fella several years ago when my son was small. This seemed like the perfect playground hunter for him at the time. I had almost forgotten about it, but ran across it last night. Thought I would share. Have you ever seen one of these? Any info would be appreciated...

    G2 - Frozen in but tempted to go out and play

    My new G2 was on the truck today. I have played in the house but boy would I like to go outside. I have a place that is close that will be perfect to try the G2. I guess I don't have to dig, I just have to hear. I am anxious to go across the iron field and see if any good signals sneak into...

    G2 guys, are you holding out, or aren't there very many of you?

    The few G2 users who have spoken up, have convinced me. My G2 will ship Monday. I have enjoyed the people who have commented on their new Teknetics but wonder if there are more? I have been looking for the instructions online, hoping to get a head start on the learning curve, but haven't...

    Small Coil pulls a big target out of the beans

    I went back to one of my bean field sties yesterday with the idea of trying the 6.5 coil on the LTD. I got there and I saw the 5 inch DD in the back of the car. I thought I had forgotten the other one so mounted the five inch and headed out. I was hunting right on top of the old house site...

    Almost a tribe - - - Plus a wild button

    Took advantage of an unbelievably nice day in Indiana for November and hit two fields. I expected great things from the first field but so far have only found a ton of metal buttons and a Civil War card token. I spent a lot of time there today and again found buttons, including this wild...

    Thought I found an Indian head - - - 1863

    I finally got permission to hunt a bean field that I knew had an old homestead site. I had a really hard time finding where the house stood, but eventually got into the area. Home site was way off of the road. Once I got close I found this token almost immediately. I remember the vdi read...

    F75 LTD picks them out of nail field.

    Managed to get out to an old home site in a corn field today. Tried running the F75 in BP, sensitivity at 65, discrimination at 12 and single tone. Pulled a nice 1851 early. My very first large cent was found about three years ago and it to was an 1851. The first one had a hole punched...

    Pretty Happy with my CZ3d

    I have been pretty happy with my CZ3d. In fact, I liked it so much I tracked down an early 1021 to add to my collection.. Yesterday I hunted farm fields with my LTD and came back to an old picnic grove and reached for the CZ. I hunted an area very close to a new building on the site and the...

    Back to the F75 LTD for the soybeans. Large cents!

    I spent most of the summer hunting grass in an old picnic grove. I liked the simplicity of the CZ3 d. I even got a 1021 late in the season. My LTD pretty much set the summer out. Now that we are into the bean fields and covering a ton of ground I had to get the F75 out. Found this spot on...

    New CZ 3 d is here - - - woo hoo - 1021

    Not much to say, but had to tell somebody who understands how excited I am to get a 1021. I love my later CZ 3, but have always wondered about the air tests and if the same transfers into the ground. I did an unpack and air test and can only say WOW. I plan to test them side by side a lot...

    This is what CZs do, gotta love em.

    Hi guys, I am fired up about my new CZ 3d arriving soon, but still hunting with my other CZ. I went back to a place I have pounded for years and stumbled onto a great new hot spot. Thanks to all of your stories and ideas I tried to take a new approach to the same old place. History says...
