    Gold

    I remember many years ago when I was newbie. Someone told me 'if you are not digging nickels, you are not digging gold' !!! When I fianlly got a metered machine(fisher f75), I notched in the nickels and only once did I find a gold ring. Even that one was a scratchy, on the fringe signal. Gold...

    Small jewelry chain

    I recently had a request to search for a silver bracelet at the beach. Found it in one swing. Turns out it was silver plated copper. Pure gold rarely tarnishes. Its inert to most chemical reactions. I suspect its plated copper or brass. I have recently heard that Manticore is one deep...

    The heat got to me

    I can see why many Mid-westerners go to Florida, winter is way too cold and long. I think you either love or hate Florida. For me, the heat and the bugs just kill me. Unfortunately due to family situation, I have to go more often than I want. Fl is just not my cup of tea. With climate...

    The heat got to me

    Unfortuntely I learned the hard way in Florida !!! Got out 6-7 a/m and got eaten alive by no-see um's !!!!! If you live in tropical locale, better bring lots of bug spray !!! In Florida its either red tide or bugs !!! I'll stay here in Jersey and put up with a little cold weather in winter...

    Are the Equinox coils that work with Xterra Pro better then stock coil - do they help stabilize the VDI?

    Ive been a tone only person from day one. I remember reading you'll miss a lot of good targets just relying on numbers. I started on land with a Shadow X2, I remember telling someone the 'weirder the signal, the better' . I found a diamond tennis bracelet at a parking meter. Gave me a real...

    Gold coins found at rally

    From my personal experience with the treasure evaluation committee, I hope he doesn't get his hopes up. They usually give extremely low evaluations. You can counter them with comps but they don't move off of their low ball offers. Im not a fan of the treasure act in UK. Its just an easy way...
