    Working the 4" coil and getting better at it

    I worked my favorite city park again today.....every time I go there I find something.....no where near "hunted out." Today I found my 1st Susan "B" Anthony and came so close to my 1st double silver day.....a '65 quarter and a '65 dime. I also found a '62 and a '64 Penny as well as a '78...

    4" Coil Question

    OK, I have a question for our learned colleagues: I've been using my 4" coil on my Legacy 3500 a lot lately while working an old city park that has nearly 80 years of hidden trash. For the most part this coil has been EXACT....except with dimes. Here's my problem: I get a signal that looks...

    Water detector

    Ok my Bounty Hunter family.........I will admit it, I have not done a single bit of research on this topic. Just thought I'd come to the family with a question first.....and maybe save me some time during my research. I want to do some deeper detecting in salt water than I can using my 3500...

    The Shade Tree Mechanic......

    The "Shade Tree Mechanic" really lived.......I have proof! This is the weirdest thing I have found in a public park.......it was under a tree in the older section of our oldest city park. The EGR valve fits a Ford from the 1977 to 1985 era. I found the water nozzle, its handle and most of the...

    New toyis on the way

    Finally broke down and ordered the 4" coil for my Legacy 3500. It will fit my Tracker IV too.......or so I hope. Also bought me coil covers for the 4" & 8" coils. It all should arrive next Tuesday.......7/22. Also bought another lower arm and bolt to make it easier to change out. Now, I...

    Nothing fancy.......

    It's all clad and junk....so nothing fancy to talk about. EXCEPT for how I found 50 of the 51 pennies....... My Legacy 3500 was going crazy......signals everywhere......and none of them more than 2" deep! I pinpointed a coin with my detector and put my Legacy down, grabbed my Pro Pointer and...

    My Second Silver

    Made a trip to the beach today thinking the finds should be plenty after the holidays. There I go thinking again.......:detecting: I found a whopping $0.12 clad and an aluminum cross missing its stone. So I gave up on the beach and headed to a local tot lot back home. Voila!! My second...

    2014 06 22 Special Invite Hunt

    TwoGuns invited me to hunt his new home's grounds......he and his wife have inherited her parents old homestead. There are 3 old barns and about 15 acres to hunt. Today I concentrated on the area between the first barn and the back of the house. Nothing outstanding to report. But I have a...

    A Little Beach Hunt

    I did a little beach hunt this morning. Found some trash, some clad, a 40 cal. casing and a watch. The Watch is an Elgin, so it's not top of the line, expensive or the most accurate. However, this watch is more precise than the Atomic Clock twice a day!! It sure had my heart going there for...

    D-Day

    "Thank you!" Such little words. But when they are heart felt, very few words have a larger impact on the military veteran recipient. I only wish my Dad and all my other relatives who lived through that hellish time in history could hear those words from me today. But in my heart, I know they...

    Curiosity........

    I am not interested in which manufacturer gets the most votes. This is simply something I am curious about. That's all, so don't try to make this into a "battle of the brands", please. The only metal detector I have ever used is a Bounty Hunter. So consequently I am "trained" to listen to...

    The Day After......

    I took the day off from work to go to the beach to look for bling and cha-ching. I had barely gotten started before the bottom fell out. I checked the radar to see if it was gonna subside soon.........NOT A CHANCE!! So I packed it in and headed home. With 80-90% chance of rain everyday this...

    A Day of Vacation

    Vacation days are suppose to be fun. Right? Well, I have not seen any reports on the size of crowds at the beach yet, but with the weather we had this weekend there should have been large crowds. Most area schools had to make up a bad weather day so they chose today. So I'm betting the...
