    10.00 Conquistador finds gold.

    Went to a different beach today, where there was no interferance from mineralization. Found the usual change, junk jewelry, etc. Then found a 14k bracelet. First time I've seen real gold in the scoop in years! Took the bracelet by a jewelry store to get it repaired as a Christmas gift for wife...

    Tesoro Compadre...Deal?

    Thanks! I owned one years ago, but went to other Tesoro models. They are good, simple machines, and since Tesoro is not in business now, owning a clean one may be good for a spare.

    Tesoro Compadre...Deal?

    A friend has a Compadre that is in "like new" condition. Probably has less than 2 hours use on it. He paid 150.00 for it, and I can probably buy it for that amount. I don't know what these are bringing now. Just thinking...

    Conquistador umax coil question

    Hey, Monte! My Conquistador says it's a umax, but no toggle protrudes down under the housing.there is a toggle on the face with 3 frequency selections. I am going back tomorrow, and was going to take the machine, but perhaps I should take the Silver, instead?

    Conquistador umax coil question

    Thanks, Monte! I knew you would know. Mine is the Conquistador umax, but there is a lot of mineralized red clay under the sand. I used to get "hot rocks" on these same beaches with my old White's machines. You have answered my questions. Thanks!!

    question about civil war troop movements

    Sounds like you have a good place to hunt. That's half the battle right there!

    Conquistador umax coil question

    I'm sure Monte can answer this for me. I used the Conquistador to hunt a lakes waters edge a while back. I did find 3 rings and the machine did good, but at 2 freshwater beaches, the machine had a couple of false signal spells. I figured it was electronic field interruptions. Went back today...

    Yesterday’s painful loss

    We had a Boston Terrier back years ago, and he was unbelievably smart. Talking to him was like talking to another person. At age 10, he started having bleeding spells from his nose. Vet x-rayed him and found cancer in his sinus cavity. We were told that this was the beginning of the end, to take...

    The whole scoop is fabricated. Drilling all the holes took some time.

    Hunt with 10.00 Conquistador today

    It seems that anything good, usable, and dependable is falling by the wayside. It is a shame. Give me an old vehicle, tractor, metal detector, gun, or whatever, and I am happy. Lol

    Bandido or Silver Sabre which one to keep?

    Thanks, Monte! I bought a new Silver umax in the 90's, and cleaned-up 2 small Civil War cavalry camps with it. I was hooked on Tesoro after that. Stuff was not very deep in either place, but some items were deep enough to surprise me. Went back later to these places with a Minelab Explorer and a...
