    Looking for help with ring

    I found this ring today it rang up a solid 44. There are no markings, that I can see, in side. It also is not magnetic. I know it is just costume jewlery but was curious what would ring up as 44, yet no markings Sorry about the blurry pics and I have not cleaned it up yet.

    first wheatie spill find, and IH

    I went out today and hunted a place I have hunted before. I hit a 45 wheatie, then nothing for awhile, then I hunted close to the street and hit a signal jumping from 36 to 42. I dug up a 58 wheatie, this went on for 9 more wheaties in an area about 1 1/2 ft by 2 ft. With the signals I was...

    Solve one problem-now another

    I was having issues with the 705 being erratic. A reset fixed it, but NOW something new is happening. The other day while hunting I noticed it got awfully quite. I noticed I was getting ID's but no sound. I unplugged my earphones the audio worked. Switched to a different detector, the earphones...

    Nash Car Emblem

    I haven't posted in awhile, nor been out in awhile. I went out the other day on a rainy/drizzly day to an ol standby spot and hit this emblem, Also found a 64 Dime, funy thing it was 3/4 visible. I have found this style of emblem/logo was used around 1918

    xterra 705 erratic

    Hello, I haven't been out much lately but the few times I have the xterra 705 is (or becomes) really erratic. It is hard to pick out good signals, it seems like only large signals give a good reading. The numbers jump all over the place and this is in more then one location. I have tried...

    Proving Ground/No Spot hunted out/

    I have to agree with a few posts lately about no place being hunted out. I went to one of my stand by local city parks that has been "hunted out" Yesterday I found a 1935 Merc and a 1935 Canadian penny. Today I snagged a 1926 Standing Liberty, dang though I scratched it while digging it out...

    new coil source

    I hope this question is not out of bounds, but I had bought my x-terra 705 used (almost new). I am wanting to get a new coil. I am thinking of the concentric 3khz, in hopes of finding more silver. Anyways to the question, I am looking for a good source for the new coil. My detector was bought at...

    I was searchung yesterday and was getting some new clad when I got a reading (from what I remember) of either 46 or 48 and then a negetive number, can't remember either -4 or-6. I dug about 6 to 8 inches down and wasn't finding the object then saw a what looked like a piece of rusted out can...

    First Silver Coin w/705-and the strangest place to find it

    I found my first silver coin (with my 705). I was doing some reading on the forum and went out to try a few dfferent settings and to do a little night hunting. I hit a 1970 penny right in front of my front sidewalk slab. It was down about 4 inches. But I know I have been over this ground as...

    TID question/issues

    Hello, I hunted two parks lately that were a few blocks apart. In both of these parks I kept getting readings in the 40's but would not find anything when I dug down. I would get strong signals either 40 or 42 or jumping between these numbers or the numbers would be 46 or 48. Even though I dug...

    Eating Batteries

    Hello, I am loving my new (to me) 705. I also use a White's MXT. The MXT uses AA as the 705 uses 4 AA. I have had to change batteries several times since I got it, a couple weeks a go. They seem to go fast. I can use the MXT for sometime before changing and I usually do not run them completely...

    First Indian Head (with 705)

    I went out Saturday and hit on a coin that was so black and smooth I could not read it. It was down at least 5 inches. So I went back to the car and put it in a glass of water to soak. I went back to the spot and got a 28-30 reading and near the top. I almost didn't dig it, but did. It was only...
