    Newer coins dissolving in the ground

    Have for years. I am in Central Arkansas and there is a nearby papermill. Lot of acidic contamination in our state from such mills. I think that is the problem.

    Minelab Equinox vdi numbers on Gold

    Any of the lower readings from 4 to 20 can be gold. My suggestion is try this. I have great results using this method. I have over 100 gold rings 10k to 18k and one gold 24k bar. If a low number is consistant, not jumping numbers, it is usually gold. Works for me.

    Need some help Buddies

    My dream was to become a geologist or paleontologist, but a few things got in the way. I can still identify most minerals and fossils, from memory. Now my passion is hunting rings. I have over 100 nice gold rings and over 150 silver rings. I have sold on 2 occasions over an ounce of gold scrap...

    What would you do?

    I found that boiling in vinegar removes a lot of corrosion. It cleaned a 1737 1/2 Reale that I found in Bonaire a couple years ago. It was completely coated with sand but cleaned pretty good.

    The Legend is on fire!

    Detecting has changed over the years for a lot of reasons, one that I believe was a negative impact was the televised reality shows that show hunters with questionable skills promoting our hobby. They made it look like all a person had to do was buy a detector and immediately find a $20.00 gold...

    The Legend is on fire!

    NOKTA MAKRO (LEGEND) GETTING SUED - PATENT INFRINGEMENT

    ML's main interest isnt even in metal detectors. Their main concern and income is from defense deals with the military. Metal detectors are mostly a sideline.

    NOKTA MAKRO (LEGEND) GETTING SUED - PATENT INFRINGEMENT

    Agree. If it is my understanding ML either lost or dropped their patents for "multi frequency" technology. If so, how can you "sue" over infringements? If someone finds a $20 bill on the sidewalk and picks it up, did he steal it? I have been a loyal ML owner for years. They invented and...

    Do any of you all own both a legend and equinox?

    I have 2 Nox 800's and a legend. I bought the legend to compare how another company would incorporate the multi frequency system into their machine. I have compared both machines while beach hunting and both are consistent winners. The last outing was in Aruba where I've had excellent results...

    Bad Dealers

    Its sad when a company or individual grows to the extent, they no longer feel they owe anything to the buyer. I have two sellers that I constantly purchase from, because I would rather support them in their business than give my money to the "big guy" that may or may not support me. Give the...
