    My Best Relic Find!

    Thought that this would be of interest to the Civil War MD'ers. Was hunting an old park and found this Bronze commemorative token at the base of an old tree. The TID was in the 40's so I thought it might be an old quarter. It was about 8 inches deep. The gentleman pictured is John Corson Smith...

    Hunting Dense Wooded Areas

    Can anyone give me a good argument for hunting dense wooded areas. I need to venture off into new territories and have yet to hunt forests and woods. These areas date back to the 19th Cent. but not sure how much people used them. I often see YouTubes of MD'ers hunting forests and woods with...

    Xterra armcuff broken

    Does anyone know where I can buy a new armcuff for my 705? Mine snapped where the Velcro strap attaches on one side. Kellyco shows one but says it is no longer available for order. My detector is out of guarantee.

    First Walking Liberty

    Just scratched another off of my "to find list". Hunted an old park where many carnivals were held in the past. An old friend told me where the beer tent used to be set up so I spent a couple of hours carefully hunting the area. Scored this 1944 Walking Liberty Half along with about $2.00 in...

    My Latest Indians

    Just found two more Indians with my new 9" 3Khz coil. The 1902 is almost pristine and you can see all of the details. The 1903 is OK but not as nice. I really love the new coil and am totally amazed by the depth I am getting. Have not found any silver yet but know that I will get some soon...

    Gray Ghost Headphones

    Just purchased a pair of Original Gray Ghost Headphones and tried them out today. I immediately noticed that the tone separation, especially in the higher tones was not suitable. They were comfortable but the tone problem was bad enough for me to send them back. I had been using Garrett...

    Pinpointing mastered!

    I finally mastered the art of pinpointing thanks to Randy. After relying on the standard method by using the pinpointing button which yielded mixed results, then switching to the prospecting mode with even more mixed results, I decided to try a method that Randy had mentioned in his guide and...

    First Barber Quarter

    I finally found my first Barber Quarter (1899). In was in my old park that I have been hunting for almost a year. After reading one of Diggers posts recommending to hunt the edge between the grass and the sidewalk, I decided to do it and scored this beauty. I also got a lot of nice signals...
