    Some Vaquero videos

    I just got around to putting some videos on YouTube . They are pretty crude but thought some of you would like to see the Vauqero at work . I have my fingers crossed that this will work . https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HQwva7q77og https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CwmKV5-TZKg...

    Its buffalo season

    Took the Vaquero with stock coil to the park today , pretty much digging up every repeatable signal . I had the sens turned to the end of the red line and minimum disc . I only found two coins and an ox shoe . One of the buffalos has a very readable date .Both nickles were 5 to 6 inches deep .

    tin foil or aluminum foil ?

    I have an area that has yielded a lot of old coins , over 100 with several dating back to the 1800's . I also find lots of balls of foil . I believed these were aluminum foil because of the lack of rust and used for wrapping food . Being a lot of these coins predate aluminum foil could it be...

    156 year old coin Vaquero

    My first outing of the year yields a good find today by a creek . Using a Vaquero with stock coil , I got a nice sweet tone in disc , hit the all metal button and it was so mellow . Vaquero users know what I'm talking about . I carefully popped it out of mud and had no idea what it was . Got...

    question about Vaquero knob

    My Vaquero's GB knob is loose . It wiggles a bit . None of the others do . The set screw is tight . The unit falses a lot and i think its because of the knob . Anyone else ever have this problem ?
