    Stealing wishes . . .?

    Hi All, I have been wanting to water hunt a part of the river that was used for wagon and cattle crossings from the mid to late 1800's. In early 1900's a bridge was installed. It occurs to me that folks may have thrown coins into the river making wishes. Assuming I find enough coinage to think...

    Signals seem to disappear.

    Hello, I was hunting a sand volley ball court today and would hear signals showing 4-6 or 6-8" using my ACE 350. As I would start to dig the target, the signal would just disappear. I checked "dug" dirt pile with the pro-pointer and the 350. Happened about 3 times. Also would get a tone as I was...

    Close, but no silver.

    Made quick stop last night around 8:30 to hunt a sand volleyball court in a business park. I though I was some kind of genius for thinking of it, cause who would ever detect a sand volleyball court . . . Cleanest spot you would ever find! I found two 3" nails which I was pleased to remove and...

    Winery Hunt

    Feels silly to post just clad considering some of the great finds that have been posted lately. I am very new to the hobby and up until this hunt have only been able to hunt for about 6 hours total, either in our creek or backyard, and have netted $.35 and a pile of nails. Its proved much harder...

    How deep does the 350 go?

    I was messing around in my backyard practicing with my ACE350 and new pro-pointer when I hit a target at 8"+ ringing in at $.50/$1.00. I dug, checking each shovel full and checking the hole until I had a hole about 18" wide and 12" deep. The 350 still says the same thing. What does it think it...

    Are pin-pointers a must?

    Just went on my second ever today. We have a seasonal creek bed in the easement directly behind our property line. It has been dry for six months, but due to an earthquake last weekend and the subsequent water main breaks on the west side of town the creek was running for a couple of days. Now...

    Brief but fun hunt.

    I received my first metal detector, a used ACE 350, last week. Finally had a chance to get out and try to use it on Sunday. I had my three and four year old sons with me which explains why the hunt was so brief. They were really excited until we had to dig for more than 2 minutes to find the...

    Garrett Master Hunter CX for beginner detector?

    Hello. I would appreciate any feedback on the idea of buying a Garrett Master Hunter CX as a first metal detector and an inexpensive way to try out the sport. Looks rather old school as it has an analog display, but will it do the job to help me learn detecting? It looks VERY basic and straight...

    Can't wait to begin . . .

    Hello everyone. Brand new newbie here. Got the bug for silver, gold and treasures in general while purchasing some storage lockers at auction. Surprising that every unit I purchased except for one had some amount of silver or gold. I figured I'd cut to the chase and just go searching for the fun...
