    Manticore, two silver GWs and a token spill first time out.

    Thank you Ray, I am looking forward to the next hunt. I think I might have screwed up on the first hunt. So I'm a 5 tone guy. Different pitch and volume for each bin. except bin 2 (nickel and gold ) and 5 have a volume of 25. I hunt by tone and at first was forgetting to look at the trace. After...

    Manticore, two silver GWs and a token spill first time out.

    Thank you fwcrawford I too enjoy , what I call a mixed bag hunt. When tags, toys , and relics come up along with some good coins it doesn't get much better. An old skeleton key or lock would have put it over the top. Good luck in the New Year. Mark

    Manticore, two silver GWs and a token spill first time out.

    Well I finally broke down and bought a Manticore. With the sale and an additional discount from Bart made it palatable enough for me. I'm a cheap so & so. Thanks Bart. But as luck would have it extremely dry ground topped off with a frost cap from what little rain we got made it damn near...

    Manticore owners: Do i need 1?

    Del thanks. I talked to Bart at Big Boys and he was able to give me an additional discount, Thanks Bart, so although not the veteran's discount every dollar I can save helps.

    Equinox owners?

    In Feb. of 18 when they first came out I got an Equinox 800. Coming from an Etrac one of the first things I noticed was its inability to distinguish a penny from a dime. I was used to spot on ID from the Etrac. It took a little getting used to. Got the 900 in Dec. 22 and thought maybe with its...

    Equinox owners?

    Ted, 30 silver is quite a respectable total. And you still may be able to add a few more. Congrats and well done. Me, this is my worst year ever for silver with only 11 FTY. Being mainly a park and yard hunter extremely dry ground and some health issues really curtailed the times I was able to...

    Probably button?

    So a little history here. Perhaps my biggest hero, second only to Theodore Roosevelt was George Westinghouse. He founded and built Westinghouse Airbrake In Wilmerding, Pa. For those too young, the invention of the airbrake made train travel significantly safer. Before it was about as safe as...

    Probably button?

    Yes sir, fwcrawford nailed it. Great save. A Grand Army of the Republic button. Seems the G.A.R. was started in 1866 for the Union war vets and existed till 1954 when the last veteran died. There is also a womens and sons chapters. I would hit that site again. Good luck. Mark

    Probably button?

    Dead nutz fw. I dug one a few years back and was thrilled when it was ID. Now my bucketlister in that category is a G.A.R. medal. I've seen several of those posted.

    Manticore owners: Do i need 1?

    He better be careful. Every president who has tried or supported that has been shot. Most young people don't realize the Fed is not a branch of the government but is a private bank that lends the U.S. money and the taxpayers have to foot the bill. Which makes no sense since we have our own...

    Manticore owners: Do i need 1?

    Thanks for the reply. I got a 900 when they came out in Dec.of 22. Used it for about a year. Around 75 hunts. My main gripe was I didn't seem to be hitting any deep targets. Other 900 owners report no problems with deep targets. I bought an 800 when they came out in 2018 so I'm no stranger to...

    Manticore owners: Do i need 1?

    KSDfisher77, So its been 4 months now. Your thoughts ? Is it worth the upgrade from the 900 ? Was wondering.

    Just for fun what’s your serial number ?

    Ha ha. When I saw the title to this thread the only thing came to mind was, Sir my weapon serial number is 2111843, It is an M16 A1, with a muzzle velocity of 3,100 fps and capable of 750 rounds per minute Sir. Funny sometimes I can't remember if I put deodorant on but I can never forget...

    Last hunt at the silver field!

    Good lord Ted that place is loaded with silver and other goodies. Congrats on the triple Barber day. The half is still on my list. Speaking of halves, although not at once you did manage a half trifecta from the site. Don't see that too often. Good for you. I would pound that site till the...
