    5x8DD Vs Sniper for depth, advice.

    Well it sure has been a long winter, it'll be real nice when the snow and frost gives way for us northerners to get back out. I run my 5x8 ever since purchasing the Gold a couple of summers ago, is there a noticeable depth difference +/- with using the sniper coil? This year there are a lot of...

    Upnorth has a great idea and "RRN"

    Good thread UN and good reminder. As he said research is key. Last year I was able to get a free special events pass for the Rideau Valley Conservation Areas, to detect and remove all items found. As Edmonton John has stated........leaving a small footprint is an absolute must. Last month I...

    A big Thank You too Garrett!

    This past summer I had some difficulty with my headphones on the connection, Garrett took care of it, sent me a new set, no charge. The dust cap where the headphones plug in decided to go missing lol. Garrett and my supplier took care of it no charge. About the middle of last summer the display...

    Back in the saddle, some nice finds

    Hi evry1, it's nice to be able to get back detectin and sharing the cold winter finds. Since the ground is pretty well froze here the only place to detect is the open fast water in the rivers, shallow areas preferably. The lock system drops the water levels by about 8 feet so alot of area is...

    I've come to really like this site and the folks on it. So I'll bring ya up to speed, tomorrow morning I will have some surgery done on my left arm, they say he is the best at this so I'm crossing my fingers. Never had it before so maybe it's my nervousness writing here, who knows. I do have...

    Some fyi, do some research to find it

    So back in the day we had the blacksmith, he could do anything with metals, do ya see where this is going? I found this past summer some cool blacksmithing items, but what perhaps most of you don't know is in the slag piles they made is the extras, not a chance did they have refining like we do...

    Another 2 days at the St. Lawrence spots

    Trust me you don't want to see the trash I took away, ok how about a bucket full, only a little mopping bucket lol. I tell you this disc 1 and 30 on iron full sens, and audio to choose works so good. I found on this without the audio the signature of each find is unique to it's own that is. I...

I was really surprised again as the coins...

    B&O Rail piece found today

    Found this cool piece about 200 ft away from the original track way that was done roughly 1850 in the town near where I live, close to Ottawa. It was down about 8 inches in a very sandy soil along with what looks like old whiskey barrel stays. The stamp is on both sides, it looks to be cast...

    After reading 88junior's message, (returning a find)

    A return of the Gun I bought a house in 2002, it was built 1850ish. In 2004 a knock at the door, he introduced himself and said he was born in the house and stayed for over 20 years. He saw that I had gutted it completely and I told him about my finds in the walls. I took out the little cap gun...

    Found a new St. Lawrence river site, (untouched)

    This place has never been hunted before, metal trash is everywhere, the detector going off like an alarm clock non stop. Made it tough to hear the good tones, had to empty the trash 2 times in my trunk. From what I found this morning the big buckle is possibly a Baldric buckle 18thC, there's one...
