    Something ain't right with this 1956 Rosy

    Well that find is "spot on!" I'm guessing a barnicle of some sort. Lucky year too ~ my 89 year old parents got married in '56.. still together and both are doing great (I'm a lucky son). The ocean treats silver in weird ways. Hoping you find some "spotless" gold coins soon!;) MickTwin

    NOX 600 Finds Gold Wedding Ring & Returns To Owner

    While detecting at a park with my week old Equinox 600, a man mentioned that two years prior, he had lost his gold wedding band on the soccer field. I told him it was a new detector and while I had found silver the three times I used it, I didn't know what numbers gold would read. I took his...

    Equinox Gold Ring Numbers?

    Anyone have an idea what numbers gold rings read on the Nox? I've silver on each of the three hunts with my 600, but had a man in a park ask if I could find his wedding ring. He lost it two years ago and was able to show the area of the soccer field he remembers if flying off his finger. I...

    9.6v Ni Cd pack OK for XS-2 Pro

    I have an old Sov XS-2 Pro which has been working fine with the original NiCad battery pack. As time goes on, I'm worried that battery pack will start losing its' power holding ability and start to go bad. I don't have a working AA battery set up. I just cut the wires to an old toy 9.6v pack...

    I found my 1st Barber Quarter!

    I had a blast this morning finding coins on a wind swept beach in NY today. Lot's of heavy fist sized stones were exposed on the surface due to a North Easter that hit a few days ago. Although I had to fill about 15 holes some jerk had left above the high tide line, I was rewarded with my...

    Quick Tip ~ Get In The Dew!

    I learned something early this morning that should improve my find count. There was dew on the grass at the park I was hunting, and I was happy that I wore my waterproof duck boots. I noticed the pattern my stock E-TRAC coil was leaving (as it brushed the top of the freshly cut grass) left an...
