I Had A Sterling Day With My Tesoro Tejon :tesoro:

I got a early start this morning to work some curbs and sidewalks of an older area of town. I grabbed my Tejon with the 8 inch doughnut coil to handle the task. It has been awhile since I have used the Tejon, but it didn't take long for me to get the hang of it again. The discrimination was set at 'foil' and it was never moved from there. I starting finding a bunch of wheat pennies and I knew that I was on the right trail for some silver coins. The wheat pennies were old (1945,1925, 1923,1924, 1925, 1953, 1944, 19??, 1942). I was thinking that I might be at virgin site that hasn't ever had a coil over it. I just knew that every deep target was going to be a silver coin, but no such luck. I did dig some really deep civil war bullets though. Finally, I moved down the street and got really close to the curb and sidewalk area. Right off I got a great signal and popped a silver chain bracelet (35.59 g). Yep, my heart was a racing some. It wasn't 10 minutes later and I got another great sounding beep and popped another silver bracelet (14.27g). It's a little bent, but what the heck, it's silver. I'd have to find over 20 silver dimes to equal as much silver as I found today. I also found enough clad for some gas money.:)

The Tesoro Tejon may be World famous for being a great relic detector, but I'm telling you that it also does great as a coin and jewelry detector. I didn't find any gold rings today, but with the way the Tejon was hitting super hard on nickels, I would have known a gold ring was there if I had put my coil over it.

Nice silver, pretty good weight count at over 1
 
Hay Tabman, we are going to take that toy away from you. You are just finding to much junk. I hit an old house site today and only found a few coins and a 925 silver ring. Not as nice as yours, but nice. So from now on you stay home...KEN. IND
 
Thanks everyone. Swinging a Tesoro is more fun than a barrel of monkeys.:jump:

Thats an unusual turquoise bracelet. I like it. you blew me out of the water today. I have nothing to show for two hours of detecting.

You have to be at a good location that has not been detected to find the really good stuff. Lately I've been doing some exploring to find new sites to detect.

You have think outside of the box, because all of the obvious public places have been detected to death.
