    Three month clad total

    Took my jars of clad to the bank today for the "special savings account" that's the one I put my findings in and I don't need permission from "the BOSS" to use it. If I find it on the ground, I can spend it on stuff to dig in the ground. A total of $141.00 was the total and it even gave me a...

    Chinese copy of Minelab Detector!

    I have noted lately that there have been a lot of postings on EBay for Minelab GPX 4500 at ridiculously low prices from sellers with new accounts and few sales. I have sent several questions to the sellers pretending I live near and can I pick it up and pay for it. This is how I check out a...

    Index tagging for post

    Hey Bryce, something I have been thinking about and wanted to pass it by you and see what the other members thought. I know that the forum has a search feature but it's very generic and hard to really get what your looking for in past posts. Most of the time we are looking for specific info that...

    1915 Licence Plate

    Yesterday I went back to the old house that I had found my first walking liberty half, It has rained here and that usually helps the signals come thru better in the bone dry ground.Immediately I found several wheaties and roosie dimes. what I was really hoping for is Mercury dimes, but no luck...

    How deep would you dig?

    The other day Ron Y and I got together for a hunt at my favorite park. During a break we were talking and I told him that I had seen an article about a type of ground radar that would go four meters down and give a visual representation of whats down there. I remarked to him that with the...

    First Walking Liberty

    I know She ain't a beauty, but of course that's with the beholder. Kinda pocket worn and not a high dollar coin but it's the first one I ever found! Went to a 1920's home I located and started with the large front yard. Found a couple of wheaties and the other coins seemed to be mostly 1970-1980...

    The sound of winter!

    The sound of winter for me here in Arizona is my headphones on and the Explorer singing loud. The summer here is nasty to detect in because of the heat. When MY season comes I can always tell because the members in the northeast complain Its frozen and are lamenting that they cant get out. I can...

    The sound of injuns

    The areas I hunt are usually loaded with clad. I normally dont pay much attention to pennies unless they hit a bit higher than normal and sound a little "sweeter"then theres the chance they are a wheatie. Recently I was bored and went to my favorite spot telling myself that I was going to dig...

    Hey, Guys, At the end of this month I am going to get a rare chance to do some beach hunting in San Diego. I have never been on the beach with my Exp 2 with SEF 10x12 coil and x-1 pinpointer. Have about two years experience in all kinds of places except beaches. Where I am going is Pacific...

    Was just looking around the internet and came across a unit on the Kellyco site called "Golden King" ground penetrating radar.I have heard a lot of dirt fisherman here say they will change their brand when one comes along that show a picture of whats in the ground and tell how deep...

    Differences between EXPll, e-trac and SE

    I have been hunting with an EXP_ll for about two years now and thinking about "upgrading"to an SE or E-track. I do love my EXPll and have no complaints. I rarely use any kind of program when I'm hunting and prefer to just listen to it all and have become very comfortable that way. From what I...

    double tail half dollar

    Today I saw my 89 year old mom and we had lunch. She had told me that she had a bunch of old coins she found in her closet collected over the years, she wanted me to look at them and see if any were worth anything. With Redbook in hand I went over them and found several walking halves and...

    Spring Hunt with N2Treasure

    A while back Duane ( N2Treasure} contacted me and said he was coming to my neck of the woods again and could we set up a hunt. I am always happy to accommodate Midwesterners who want to come out to Arizona and hunt. The ground is tough digging and the oldie coins are far between, but at this...

    It Ain't Right!

    So after tweaking my settings last nite, this morning I set out to one of the oldest parks in the Phoenix area. I chose this one because it has the most potential for some oldies. Its pretty hard to find the old stuff here as there was not much until the 50s, most of the old has been built over...

    Here it is-- Exactly what I didn't want!

    So yesterday I happily load my gear and go to a new park I had located and hunted once before. It is a large park dating from 1935. On the previous hunt the park seemed to be very promising, loads of clad, a few silvers and some wheats. I was digging more than swinging the exp 11. The parks dept...

    Grasshopper's Holiday Hunt with Big "D'

    The day after Christmas I received a PM from N2Treasure(Duane) in Kansas asking where I was located, as he came to Phoenix frequently and maybe we could hunt. Of course I sent him my contact info with a you bet! I am a novice and learning the ropes from a veteran would make my day. The next day...

    RING AND JEWELRY SOUNDS

    Have been hitting a lot of small out of the way neighborhood parks in my area and have been doing very good in the coin collection. Have had the ex ll for about 8months now and trying to learn all I can. These parks are productive but very trashy, lots of pull tabs, there is the problem. I hunt...

    Bipod Stand for Explorer type detectors

    Just wanted to show all this stand I rigged up for my Explorer ll. It always seemed that when I put my unit down to dig it would always get dirty or fall over, and having a old timers back it was a pain to bend over and pick it up. There was only one detector stand on the market and it didn't...
