    The path to silver.

    Alright guys my adrenaline was pumping pretty fast through the blood steam. I may have been off a few numbers on the ID screen. But it was solid and I knew from experience I had to dig. One aspect I notest though as I went into the woods after I done grab balance. My machine was showing balance...

    The path to silver.

    Y You got that right!!! I went back this morning and found my first V nickel. I was pumped!!! 1886. That's pretty amazing Jim!!! A double triple I guess I'd say. I always scan back over. Being in the woods I even made the hole wider and scanned the area well. I went back this morning and found...

    The path to silver.

    I was enjoying my morning coffee down by the river when I noticed something different within the landscape. The power company obviously had cleared an area a long the easement path under the power lines across the river. Hmmm. Always wanted to go in there but it's like a jungle. Vines,surface...

    Manual ground Balance

    Darn that's quite impressive wildwilly!!!. Give it a try. I've been detecting a mere 14 years. I've had only 5 machines. The at pro is fun to swing. Because of its water proof ability. But most of my machines I would manually ground balance. Any time I can find a clean spot to accomplish it...

    Manual ground Balance

    I hunt in variable ground conditions in MI. I've had great success. But I can't prove what I'm doing is right every time. It does seem to calm the machine down and I gain a bit of depth. hhrickinmi

    Manual ground Balance

    I always manually ground balance my machines. And am very curious and surprised jimtn doesn't.. Coming from a very experienced detectorist with many years of probing the ground. I may change my protocol. hhrickinmi

    Two good (lucky) hunts in a row

    All depends on how you define luck! I'd rather think it's when preparation meets opportunity!! Nice finds hhrickinmi

    List your favorite detector

    I cut my teeth on the F4. Found my first silver coin with it. Tried the gold bug pro. Then the Garrett pro. But....the best detector to date is my F75 camo LTD. Have had all the upgrades done over the years. Never had a problem with Fisher. I have found more cool stuff with this beast then any...

    Made the move up

    You will love it. I cut my teeth on the F4. It was great. Found my first silver coin. Bought a F75 Ltd camo used. Also ran a gold bug. And some other off brand detectors. I always fell back on my F75. I learned the format on that machine and am still using it. Like jimtn said start out slow...

    Need help on this one.

    Nice find. From what I understand it's a jewelers mark. Possibly from Rene Lalique a French jewelry designer. hhrickinmi

    Heat

    Hey guys and gals. Just wanna give you the heads up on traveling with your equipment in trunks or back hatch. I'm experiencing temps over 90 degrees here in MI. I've read some horror stories about detectors getting fried in trunks. Have a safe and wonderful 4th of July!!! hhrickinmi
