    Pretty darned good coin day!

    Yesterday was an exciting day for me with my 705, in fact, for me, an unbelievable one. I dug two coins I have never found, in 20 years of detecting, a Morgan silver dollar(1886) and a liberty seated half dollar(1858). Driving around I spotted a scraped lot across the street from a park that...

    pinpoint sizing mode on 705

    I have been using my new 705 for a couple weeks (until the blizzard hit here in Oklahoma on Christmas eve). I really like the detector but am having a little trouble understanding difference between pinpoint auto mode and pinpoint sizing mode. I have been best results using pinpoint by...
