    More people would appreciate detectorists more if only they knew things like this ;) (PIC)

    I went out with my X70 today at lunch for 25 minutes. I found some cents and a quarter = nothing spectacular but I was very happy. What really amazed me is when I pulled a plug that was reading mostly penny 30-32-34- on my display. Upon finding this broad head arrow tip with 3 razor edges I...

    When you hit a silver, gold, platinum ring with the X-30-50-70.?.?.?

    Hello all :detecting: I was wondering/generalizing when a person hits a silver or gold or even platinum ring does the signal you receive remain somewhat constant both in tone and number like it would with a coin? I understand the variables such as target depth and target position, ground...

    Things just get more interesting every day it seems. I went out today on my lunch break and did a little hunting for 25-30 minutes. I have posted two pics. The top pic is of my finds. In the first pic you will see a really squished 196? lincoln memorial penny. When I found this item @ about 4...

    Find a Penny,, Dig a penny? >> Or similar denoination

    Hello all. I was wondering how many detectorists when they find a denomination of coin which is very slight like a US penny or similar do you dig it? Whilst I do not understand a person not digging any denomination of coin no matter how big or small, I have heard that some choose to neglect...

    I am in the market for my first pinpointer/probe. Pistol Probe??

    Hello all. I consider myself very "green" to metal detecting at 33 years old and I have purchased a X70 within the last year as my first metal detector. As a avid reader of the forums and and learning day by day with my X70, I have finally conceded on the fact that a pin-pointer/probe is a...

    X70,,,,,, 90 degree sweeps or 360 degree?

    I have been out with my x70 and I have found many good signals. I have read to "X" the location at 90 degrees to help identify a good target and insure signal repeatability. I find myself continually sweeping back and forth OR side to side over the target for 360 degrees while I walk around...

    My first time at a beach w/X-70,,, It's amazing what you find

    Please pardon my long post.......... So I went to a local beach on Lake Michigan here in Wisconsin today with my new X70. It was a beautiful sunny 60 degree day lakeside with very slight wind. I was using the stock 9" 7.5 coil to see how it performed in the native beige dry and wet sand. I was...

    2 x70 questions......(I'm learning :help: )

    I just picked up my X70 last week. I am trying to familiarize myself with it and I think things are going pretty well and I like the x70 very much. I have only been using the standard 9" coil so far but I plan on trying the 6" DD hi-freq. coil this weekend. Question 1, Does the x70 detect as...

    On the verge of buying the X70 but all these coils make my head spin...

    I have been patiently reading and learning (like a wisconsin mosquito seeking it's next meal) about which detector will be "the one" for me and I am now focused on the X70. This will be my first detector. My decision is based upon the many positive responses from avid X70 users who have been...
