    What to do with wheat pennies??

    A few years ago I sold quite a few wheatie to a dealer and got 2 cents each for the 40s and 50s, 3 cents for those in the 30 and 4 for the ones in the 20s and a nickel for those in the teens. Most were dug one and I had clean them in a vibrating tumble so they didnt come out too clean. I used...

    Update legend help

    I did make a copy of the 1.09 update manual and was reading it and looking at it to learn what I can. I didnt see anything in the 1.09 manual about the reset or how it is done. I see now that I will have to do the download to the Legen before I can do a reset. I wonder why they didnt have a...

    Starting to read the new 1.09 owners manual i got off this forum and have not did the upgrade yet. I tried to but didnt have no luck and going to have someone help that know more on computers later on. I read where you have to do a factory reset after you do the update and wonder what that is...

    Original sovereign coils

    Sure, sounds like a bad coil to me, was this coil new or used you got? over the years with the aftermarket coil I have seen a few of them won't work as good as the factory coil. The one that has always been good to me are the Sun-ray coils with the S-12 as a bigger coil and they make a S-8 also...

    Original sovereign coils

    Thats the first I have heard of this as all coils made for the Excalibur and Sovereigns are interchangeable that I have seen. Only those made for the Sovereigns and the Excaliburs . The coil you have is the Coinsearch which is a very good coil, but not waterproof and one I recommend for those...

    Dear Minelab

    These detectors go all over the world so it has to have many different manuals for different languages is why they dont come with a manual. Instead they put the info on the web site so you can pick the language you need and print it. Save time and money for Minelab and the customers...

    Summary of 2022 Finds

    Hi Chris another year gone and only got out one time and used my Shadow X5 being it is light weight and easy to use. I only could detect for about a hour before I fell over as I dont balance very good anymore and leg dont take too much anymore. On James we havent seen much of him anymore as I...

    Battery Holder Modification

    Albert that is what I understand that the bigger batteries have more storage like the gas tank on your car, a big tank goes farther than a small tank. the volts mean nothing on a battery compare to the amps it can put out which would be like your C cells compare to the AA which store very...

    Battery Holder Modification

    Albert My theory is it would work to try a detector out, but not a replacement for the factory one. The reason is there may not be enough storage in the AA and would run out of amp to run the detector for long. . I wonder if you could build or someone build a pack of Rechargeable 6 C batteries...

    Sovereign xs-2a battery holder pack

    looks like not much interest in the XS2 I thought it too be as they were a great detector and as you see why I changed the batteries to a plug in one as the battery doors wouldnt stay closed and sometimes they would loosen up so they would loose their connection. The meter is probably the 550...

    Does Anyone Have Hearing Problems

    Yes this would be nice to hear what you think of it, for me I believe I may have tried this and notice no difference. They claim that it restore your hearing or something like that as mine is just hard of hearing with a 110% gone in lot of the tones with the best I have is no more than 40% of...

    Sovereign xs-2a battery holder pack

    I hate to say, but looked though most of my Sovereign stuff and didnt come up with anything good. I must have given what I had to someone just like the extra rechargeable battery I had. I checked with Amazon and they do have the battery holder that is 2 pack with 4 alkaline battery in each one...

    Sovereign xs-2a battery holder pack

    I changed them from a drop in pack to the older style that has a wire to connect the battery on a few I bought and sold, Too many problems with the drop in packs as the battery cover is what hold it to make contact, too many time the cover would come loose and the Sovereign quit working or get...

    Is Nokta Makro going off the rails

    good to hear its been taken care of, there are too many dealers that once it is sold they have no service at all. I was a dealer myself for Minelab, Tesoro, and the Macro plus could get Whites, Fisher, and Garrett if needed. This was more of a hobby for me as I own and run a small town bar that...
