    Woodsin' it

    What do you do when your favorite woods get hit by a tornado and are all but impenetrable? Well, you carry on of course. You're a Tesoro owner. That little machine of yours has never quit on you, so why should you? Even if it hurts a little. ..or gets a little weird...

    Dirt Gold with the Vaquero

    Yesterday's site: Pieces of aluminum siding - check. Pull tabs - check. Roofing nails - check. This place was driving me crazy with junk targets, and I had half a mind to turn the disc up and just cherry pick for coins. Am glad I didn't. Instead, I kept the Vaq at Tabman's settings which I've...

    Chasing after the oldies with the Vaquero

    Hiked through miles of hell and waded through poison ivy up to my waist to find one of these but came up short. Decided to call it quits due to exhaustion and heat stroke. Then on the drive out I saw where two stone walls came together and figured all that stonework must have taken some time...

    Vaquero Woods Hunt

    A good day in the woods Sun. Saw some strange sights and managed another Indian, a featureless brown nickel and a hunter's pocket spill consisting of a '44 Washington, '51 Rosie and a '44 Wheatie. Also found some legs off a pewter or lead statue. Was using a NEL Tornado coil. So far I like it...

    My Vaquero's Been Busy

    Sorry I haven't posted up any finds in a while. Been spending every spare moment either fishing or dirt fishing. Has been a good spring/summer so far. Highlights include some great old relics, including a potential cannonball, and a ring find and return.

    Latest adventure with the Vaq

    Sunday's trip involved detecting in the thickest brush imaginable. I was rewarded with some cool coins and relics including an Indian Head with awesome emerald toning, various buttons and buckles, and the smallest ox shoe I've ever seen. The Indian Head was actually stuck to the bottom of a...

    Another Large Cent with the Vaquero

    Just got back from NH where I had a great time visiting family, but got skunked both fishing and metal detecting. It was too early for the landlocked salmon (still too much ice) and the foundation I had permission to detect was not only pounded to death, but dug and sifted by bottle-seekers...

    Gone Fishing with the Vaquero

    Had the day off today so loaded up the car with my fishing gear and the Vaquero. Never made it to the river because the dirt fishing was so good :bouncy: Got on a new property that I'd been trying to work up the nerve to ask permission since I started detecting. Saw the owner outside, took a...

    Help with my detector, please...

    I'm not sure what's wrong, but I can't seem to find any zinc pennies with my Vaquero; just a bunch of relics, coins and jewelry. Must be those pesky "worthless" tones. :laugh:
