    Good hunt for myself and hunting buddy today.

    Well, Ted you should donate it to me then so, I have a back-up 😂😂😂 In my opinion I can’t see myself hunting with anything else. Yes, I am biased I can’t help it as my Explorers have treated me good since my first XS.

    Good hunt for myself and hunting buddy today.

    Thanks 👍 It’ll happen I’m sure on your Seated. Going super slow is key in this kinda high trash. Smaller coil wouldn’t been better for separation but, it worked out ok.

    Good hunt for myself and hunting buddy today.

    Finally found time to get out with my hunting buddy. We just went close by to a place we have hunted for 20+ years. It would take forever to hunt it out it’s so huge. We picked an area where there’s tons of trash. I really need a 6-8” coil but, got by with the stock coil today. I sniffed out a...

    Need help getting a deep coin program on explorer 2

    Sticky I made at top of this forum hits on many important things. There are some good links to very informative information you might find useful for sniffing out the deeper coins. 👍

    Minelab explorer XS not powering up.

    First try Minelab they may or may not be able to help. https://www.minelab.com/usa/contact-us One that can help is MSR detector repair. Granted they on other side of pond but, it’s for sure a place that can help. https://www.metaldetectorrepair.com/#product Oh and final note all this is listed...

    Minelab Explorer XS

    Here’s your Manual. https://www.minelab.com/__files/f/4097/4901-0033-1.3%20Inst%20Manual%20Website%20Explorer%20S,%20XS.pdf Try using the Smartfind screen it’s beneficial on deep coins especially IH pennies that tend to bounce. Imho you get more info with Smartfind screen. That’s my opinion...

    Haven’t posted in quite a bit. Finally got out.

    My hunting buddy uses like a Swingy Attachment for his XSII because of the weight. It helps him a lot.

    Haven’t posted in quite a bit. Finally got out.

    SE-Pro with X1 Probe, Grey Ghost HP. As far as settings, pretty normal just a touch of IM to knock out iron or if cleaner area wide open. Ferrous tones, Fast off with Deep on. I’m in Smart Find screen and primarily tone listening. When I hit a desirable sound I like to use SF screen as...

    Haven’t posted in quite a bit. Finally got out.

    As everyone knows life happens and sometimes we all get busy etc. But, myself and my long time hunting buddy finally got out for a hunt today. Hard to believe it’s so nice and warm on Nov. 13th. We choose to hit a large property we have hunted several times prior as it’s been good to us. I did...

    The trusty SE never disappoints.

    Got out finally with my hunting buddy Bill. We hit an old home we got permission last year. It’s a large property and it seems there’s items everywhere. I had a good morning scoring a 1903, 1891 IH, 51 Roosie, some kind of Ohio scholastic pendant, a religious pendant, a Brave Cap Pistol in great...

    Hello again explorers

    Welcome back 👍

    Can someone pass along some good settings they recommend for coin hunting (old silver and large coppers).

    Thanks to everyone who offered my son some advice (and me too). He went ahead and tried JimmyCT settings in my sons 1952 built house just so he could get the hang of the settings. He wasn’t really expecting to find much but, did manage some zincolns which where like 22-25 range, one wheatie, and...

    Can someone pass along some good settings they recommend for coin hunting (old silver and large coppers).

    My son has a Eqiunox 800. I’m an Explorer user with no hands on experience with his machine. I was hoping someone might have some recommendations on settings for coin hunting primarily old silver and old copper coins I can print and give to him. Thanks Findmall friends. 👍

    Didn't feel like traveling due to gas prices so I stayed close to home. Glad I did!! I hit a mini-cache!

    Nice score 👍

    Did I find a piece of cut silver?

    Well, that’s a piece of 10. Much rarer then the common piece of eight. An extremely rare cut coin. Betting odds are you won’t find another. 😂 All kidding a side. Nice dig.
