    First Hunt 705/15" LF Coil

    I have one particular park in town that still produces old coins but they are deeper than most in this area. Silver starts at 7" but most are around 9". Mineralization is high. I have been hunting in pinpoint mode (all metal) with my CTX trying to find coins deeper than 9" but it is a...

    1921 D Mercury Dime!

    Along with this weeks finds I scored a Rare 1921 D Mercury Dime and a semi key date 1931 S Wheat Penny. Finds are from two hunts. An early 1900s house and an early 1900s city park. The Mercs, button, 2 of the IHs and a few of the wheats came from the park. Bryan...

    Coiltek/Anderson Shaft Combo

    The only reason I purchased the CTX was because it was known to be one of the best detectors for finding old deep coins. After a very short time I came to appreciate a couple of design features on the CTX that I had never given a thought to. One was the wireless abilities and the other was how...

    My First Barber Quarter!

    Found my first Barber Quarter this week as well as a second one an hour later with my first silver coin spill! The 1896 was found with a no date Victoria Canada silver quarter (minted 1870-1901) and a 1906 V Nickel. A pocket watch, a few wheats including a key date 1912 S and an old shotgun...

    A couple good hunts

    I had a couple good hunts this week that put my silver count at 32 for the year, which is equal to my entire 2015 total. I have a goal of 75 for 2016 but might bump it to 100 since I'm off to a good start. Yesterday I found twin 1899 Barbers, a 40 Merc and a vintage sterling Eagle Scout ring...

    Gold Racer Scores A Couple Oldies

    I wanted to see if the Gold Racer might be able to find something in a small section of an old park that a friend and I have scoured with a CTX, V3i, and AT Pro to the point we don't get anything out of there anymore.. Sure enough I pulled an 1875 Deutsches Reich Pfennig and a 1897 V Nickel both...

    XChange 2 Display Problems

    I was editing a Mode on my piece of $#*t laptop (Windows 7)and somehow everything within the XChange window went small. I can hardly read the text. Everything else on the PC is the same as it was. No matter how I change the resolution or any other display settings on the PC it stays the same...

    705 Deep Coin Coil?

    I'm trying to help a friend choose a coil for his 705. He is fairly new to detecting and I don't own a 705 so I'm hoping you guys can help me help him. He currently only has the HF 10 X 5 which he will use for nugget hunting but it's not cutting it for old deep coin hunting in our parks. I...

    Coil connector mod?

    I have an older 3.5 X 7 wide scan nugget coil for the original Lobo and Diablo that comes with a 4 pin male connector. Not the 4pin female like today's coils. Is it possible to switch out the connector so it would fit my Diablo uMax? Thanks, Bryan

    Too Much Sensitivity?

    I was hunting an older sports field today and the CTX was running around 21 in Auto+3. I came across an iffy choppy signal at 7". I new I was going to dig it but wanted to see what it sounded like if I pumped the sensitivity to manual 26. The signal went completely to crap. I would have...

    CTX Backup

    I am thinking about getting something to complement and back up my CTX. Swapping coils while out detecting is a major pet peeve of mine. I currently use the stock coil and the 13x17 about 50-50. I don't own a small coil so I thought about buying a 705 or E-Trac and fitting it with a small...

    Beautiful Barber

    Took the CTX with 17" coil mounted to a local park this last week and pulled this beauty.. This was the only old coin found that day after at least 4 hours of detecting. The condition of the coin more than made up for the lack of finds. Hard to believe this has been in the ground over a hundred...
