    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...

    Have the Legend for a couple of weeks

    Thanks for all info everyone gave me as mine is a 1.05 and may have to try to do the update and wonder if you can go right from the 1.05 all the way to the 1.09 or got to do the 1.07 than do the 1.09. I was looking at the Legend when they came out and when the price got that low I figured was...

    Well that didnt work on pennies…..

    The coins that are not silver or copper are harder to clean as you see. I have been told to never clean a good coin. Now I mainly use one of my tumbler for the copper coins like the pennies before and even after 1982 and they look very good. Now my better wheat pennies and IH pennies I will use...

    Morgan Silver Dollar + Barber Quarter Pocket Spill!!

    You really got that E Trac locked on to the great finds. It is nice to see these finds as it gives us all what can be found with knowing your detector well and showing there is still a lot of good finds left to find. It looks like our weather is going to be changing soon, so no...

    How many class ring have you ever found ?? What is the oldest ?

    In my 49 years of detecting I have found a few of them, not sure how many. I figure it is around 10-12 with the oldest 1912 I believe it was. I always try to return them to the owner if I can as the thrill of it is second to none. One I didnt try and it bugs me to this day as it was a 1972...

    A question concerning Gray Ghost NDT headphones

    I too have a bad hearing problem and many of the headphone just wouldnt be loud enough for me. On most of the headphone I used with my hearing so bad the Timberwolf, the Troy Pros, the SunRay pros worked very good for me. I have 2 sets of the UniProbe made by Gray Ghost, but they have good...

    Detectors that have stood the test of time.

    There are several that really impress me, The Sovereign GT is my favorite as I have tried all the differnt Sovereigns and the GT is awesome for me, infact any of the Sovereigns but the original are some of the best. Take a while to understand them at first and those that do see what it can do...

    Big Silver Fun & Very Old Car Printing Block

    Nice haul Dave with the silver halfs plus all of your finds. I think that one token with the big center hole used to have a penny in it at one time. Just love seeing finds like this. Rick

    How does the Sovereign XS2-Pro compare to the Nox800 or even the Vanquish540?

    I still like my Sovereigns even after trying many different detector, this could be that it takes a while to learn the Sovereign to get the full benefit of it. For me with the 180 SunRay meter I dig very little trash compared to other detectors I have used, When I first got it I was very...

    WTB 8" Sovereign coil

    I may have something for you if you cant find a 8 inch Sovereign coil as I bought a new or like new 8 inch Tornado coil with a new lower shaft, so it is a complete shaft and coil for quick change. I bought it several years ago from another member and never used it, but had plan to, but when all...

    Troy metal detectors .

    Yes the Troy Shadows were a great detector, I had all three of them the X2 the X3 and the X5 and to me the X2 was a good all around detector while the X3 was a good competition machine for the club hunts while the X-5 was my favorite of the Troy Shadows. They were not cheap for a non metered...
