    First Silver Coin with Deus 2!

    I was out at an old school that I had pounded with the CTX. I was in a very trashy area which gave me fits with the CTX. With the increased customization available with the D2, I was able to detect this area effectively. I got a 92 that was moderately deep. I extracted a corroded war nickel at...

    Coiltek CTX is a Winner! Impressions, pics, vids and FINDS!!!

    Hi All! I have not posted in a while but wanted to be more active again. Since I got a CTX over two years ago, I have longed for a coil that was bigger than the tiny 6in and smaller than the stock. I was excited when I heard that Minelab had licensed Coiltek to make an elliptical coil for the...

    Bagged 100th Silver for 2013!!

    Start out by saying I had to count sterling or I never would have made it to 100. Today I went to a park where I had no luck much earlier in my career. Experience does truly help in finding silver as I was able to extract a 48D Rosie, 43D Merc, a sterling ring and a sterling religious medallion...

    Another BIG Silver and More!!

    Got out to a new (old) school. Building had been torn down and rebuilt elsewhere on the lot. Searched what I thought was the old playground. Immediately found two silver Rosies. Then about an hour later I got a very weak signal at around 12in. I was good 4 ways so I went after it. Dug and dug...

    Third Big Silver this Year!!!

    I am continuing to hunt that old school. Today I found a 41 Walker and a 6.8g childs sterling fish ring. The Walker was at about 10in and I could only hear it two ways. Fortunately, the tone was so sweet and repeatable, I decided to dig it. The ring is unmarked but passed the acid test... I...

    Todays Results: 2 Silvers!

    Got out to old school that I have had luck at before. This time I went slowly and systematically. Managed a 43 Washington at 11in and a small sterling ring at about 5in. Still have a lot more ground to cover though!

    Two Bl(r)ings and a dime!!

    Got out to an old park and school today. Found two keeper rings (man's gold filled and sterling and women's sterling with rhinestones). I found one silver coin which was a 47 Rosie. There were also 5 wheats and some clad...

    Pounded Park Gives some Keepers!

    Went to a large park where I have had some luck before. I am sure its been hunted many times by others. I can usually find some silver there if I have a few hours and work systematically. Today I got a 46 Washington and a 63D Rosie. I also found a couple of 50s wheats and a few dollars in clad.

    Recent Hunts turn up Bling and Silver Dimes!

    Been trying some new parks and schools. I found two silver dimes as well as two smaller .925 rings. I think I am finding more .925 now because I have learned more how to interpret the detectors chirps and readings. Most of these items were at 5-8 in. I also found some wheats and about $7.00 in...

    Short Hunt Yields some Silver!!

    Went to small (~1-2 acre) park where I had never gone before. Immediately dug the .925 ring and the wheaty... I thought, boy this place is going to be loaded!! Well, hunted the rest and found 1 lowly 64 Rosie at 11in!! The rest of the park was pretty much a bust. But two silvers is not bad for...

    Got a Silver Coin and Jewelry in one Find!

    Was out at an old school I had visited before. Decided to try the perimeter this time. I got a 12.44 at about 5in and popped out a silver coin. On closer inspection, it was a 1937 20 centavo Mexican coin. It had a loop soldered on one edge and what looked like part of another on the opposite...

    Recent Hunts turn up much .925!!

    Got out to two old schools to try to find some silver coins. I kept finding this sterling bling. Not complaining because silver is silver. The total weight of the rings is about 17g. I finally found a silver Rosie right before I wrapped it up. I also liberated 8 wheats and several dollars in clad...

    Recent Hunts turn up Silver!

    Been hitting some old schools with some success. Never found more than one silver per hunt. Seems to be getting harder to bring home the silver in my area... Also got 11 wheats and probably $5-6 in clad...

    This Weekends Results... Silver!!

    Got out to an old park today. There was a lot of clad but I managed two silver coins and a .925 ring. The black coin is a silver war nickle. They are almost always black in my soil with a hard coating. They ring in like a wheat or a dime on my machine so they get dug. A few minutes with a file...

    Had a Great Hunt at New Venue!!

    Got out to another old school today. Found a small field at the edge of the property. Ran a couple of test passes and had a silver Washington within 10 min. Gridded the rest and came up with three more silvers! Also found 5 wheats and about $2.00 in clad.
