    Found First Silver with Compadre 7” Coil

    Odanscoils. I am sorry I should have taken a picture to post if all I found that day when I found the ring. I dug a lot of coins and then that ring. It was kind of an epic morning for me. Unfortunately all those coins ended up in my bank of coins to clean up and turn in and well the scrap...

    Tesoro coil questions. 4 pin or 5 pin connector?

    Thank you fwcrawford for your response. I knew about the coil differences and that the Cibola, Vaquero, Tejon and the Lobo all take a 4 pin coil connector and are referred to as Epsilon coils. I just am not sure if the Deleon, the Golden Umax and the Silver Umax are 4 or 5 pin coils and I just...

    Tesoro coil questions. 4 pin or 5 pin connector?

    I know with enough research on my part I could find the answer to this question but I figured I would just ask because there are multiple people on here who probably know the answer. I do not own any of the following detectors, but wish I did. The question is, does the Golden Umax, Silver Umax...

    Found First Silver with Compadre 7” Coil

    This last Saturday I got up early in the morning to go detecting at a place I have been having great success but today was the best day yet. I love it when you find a place you know has not had a detector run over it because there are so many targets to dig even on full discrimination. I...

    Mojave on the bay

    I have both the Bandido II Umax and the Eldorado Umax and I prefer the Eldorado over the Bandido ii Umax in tone and I find it gets more depth than the Bandido ii Umax. Now that being said I agree with Odanscolls to never part with beep and dig detectors. So i will be keeping all my beep and...

    Picking up two more Beep and Digs

    Congratulations on the new acquisitions. I am hoping to try out a Tejon and a Lobo soon. I have seen from videos that the Tejon works really well with tne 5.75” coil in trashy areas. I plan to use it to hunt relics in fields and in the woods. I have plenty of other detectors for trashy...

    Mojave on the bay

    Thanks for the information on the Tejon fwcrawford. I really like how well the Eldorado handles the soil in my area. It is definitely a detector I will never get rid of. I plan to keep all my beep and dig machines that I currently have and add more as I can over time. My two wish list...

    1982 class ring return.

    Congratulations Diggin’B on finding two class rings in one day and on being able to return one of them. I have only found one class ring. It had the full last name of the owner in it. It turns out the High School was about 3 hours away from where I found it. When I contacted the high school...

    What is the best beep and dig machine(s) you have ever owned or still owned?

    I know there is a thread on this beep and dig forum about what has been your number one detector in years passed, but because this is a beep and dig forum I would like to know which beep and dig machine has been your favorite(s) and why? I have been detecting for 16-17 years now and I know that...

    Compadre Is King

    The Compadres are amazing. I have had my 5.75" one for 14 years now and it has found me so many amazing things and I have used it many hours. I recently purchased one with a 7" coil for $80, and it has found me a good amount of coins. I will not part with either one of them and if I find...

    What has been your # 1 detector in years passed

    My 2 Compadres (7" and 5.75") They are so simple and lightweight, fun and make every hunt exciting and adventerous. I have had the 5.75" for 14 years and have put alot of hours on it. It still works like the day I took it out of the box. Eldorado Micromax and Bandido ii MIcromax. Anyone who...

    Mojave on the bay

    What about the Tejon? I have never used a Tejon before. I have been thinking about a Tejon but they are super pricey right now like most Tesoros. Has anyone on here used a Tejon? If so, what are some of the pros and cons you have found with this machine?

    Mojave on the bay

    I have an Eldorado Umax and a Bandido ii micromax. I will never sell the Eldorado. I love that machine. I have the Bandido on the classifieds on this site but I am thinking about pulling it off of there. I am going to try to take it out this weekend and make a decision. I will probably...

    Eldorado wore me out on a 2 1/2 hour hunt.

    I have been using my 5.75" Compadre and my 7" Compadre on almost every hunt I have been on lately. Last night I decided to pull out the Eldorado with the 9x8" coil on it to see if I could cover a little bit more ground and get a little bit more depth. It had rained real well for a few days...

    Bought a Compadre with a 7” coil

    I was out visiting family recently and celebrating my parent’s 50th wedding anniversary with them. During this time my brother let me use his Compadre with a 7” coil. I was hooked instantly and just had to have one. I saw one on Facebook marketplace for $75 and just had to have it. I asked my...

    Found a wallet today-Did a good deed

    I know this post should probably be in the good deeds forum and may end up getting moved there . I thought it fitting however to post it on this forum, due to the post I had a few days ago about being asked to leave the park because of a ban on parks to metal detecting. Today I went to a...

    Metal detecting ban on parks

    Today was my 1st experience with being told in a gruff kind of way by a parks and rec worker to leave a park, due to all parks in that city being banned to metal detecting. He said some one had torn up the ground metal detecting in the parks and the city had banned the use of metal detectors in...

    Compadre finds Batman's car (picture included)

    [attachment 316422 image.jpg]I was able to get out for the 1st time in a long time. I made a quick stop for breakfast and a torrential downpour started. I decided to throw the rain gear on the detectors and tough it out. I was hoping to find some gold or silver today. It did not work out the way...
