    If you're selling gold...

    I will just give another "highly recommended" to ARA like a few others have done. I didn't have a ton like some of you but decided to sell a small amount and just got a check that was exactly what I was expecting, no huge disappointing surprise like I got from that other place out in the...

    To All Of Our Friends In The Pacific...

    I hope you will stay safe. The news says that a tsunami has been formed as a result of the massive quake in Chile and that practically everyone in the Pacific is at risk. They said that Hawaii will sound an alarm at 6am local time for people to start moving to high ground. I think even the west...

    So, I've Been Waiting To Hear...

    from some of you west coast guys. The forecast I looked at a day or two ago said very high waves and have been wondering if any of you have done anything? Hope so. --Jerry

    Excal II alkaline battery pod question please...

    Would someone please tell me the difference between the Excal 1000 alkaline battery pod and the Excal II alkaline battery pod and why the difference in cost? I did a search but didn't turn up anything specifically on this. I can only guess that they have different shapes that don't fit each...

    Gold Test Kits and Needles...

    I never figured I really needed a gold test kit until now but I dug a gold chain stamped 14K a few weeks ago and I'm not sure if it's a fake or not. I tried the magnet test but it doesn't seem to be drawn to it plus it looks like a good bit of copper color, especially on the clasp areas. I heard...

    Help Please with new Excal II...

    I got my new Excal II yesterday and charged the battery for about 15 hours, I think. Took it to the beach this morning to test it out and everything worked fine except for the threshold. It's way too loud even at the minimum setting just before clicking the unit off. It ran very stable with no...

    Any tricks for using the Beach Hunter 300...

    if you cannot ground balance it? I received one, took it to the beach and couldn't ground balance it at all. I tried several places from high, dry sand to low wet sand and in between with no luck. I tried hunting in all metal mode for a little while anyway but it was noisy and when it did hit...

    Dual Field placed in closet for now...

    Okay, so I've only used it in the water for a couple of times but no finds, good or bad. I think I will like it but won't be using it until next spring when the crowds get thick again and I can go far enough out in the water to use it. I have tried it on the beach but that is a nightmare for me...

    I need your help with a scoop...:shrug:

    I just received a new scoop and didn't realize until yesterday when I first used it that it was so small. I won't say where I got it but it is totally inadequate for use in the ocean and very wet sand with a PI. I know there have been some great posts about home made scoops, really wish I could...

    Sov GT and WOT coil...

    Anybody using this combo on the southeastern US beaches? If so could you please share some of your settings and give your opinion of how it compares with the stock 10" Tornado coil. I did a search but came up empty. Thanks for any help. Jerry

    Concerning Isle of Palms and holes...

    Thought this might be important enough to start a new thread since the other thread had a lot of posts. In yesterday's newspaper there was an article about the proposed ordinance concerning digging in the sand and leaving holes, etc. Seems what the people are really concerned about the most is...

    Which camera on the beach...

    Okay, I've seen the beautiful photos posted here, both under water and on the beach and I love them. I've also searched the forums and found a few posts about a camera or two but I would really like to know what cameras all of you use on the beach and in the water to make those beautiful...

    What's with this weather???

    Here it is two weeks before Christmas and I'm walking the beach sweating my you know what off. The temp here today was in the low 80's. People are laying out all over the beach soaking up the sun like it's early June or something. This is getting really strange. Anyway, I got down there about an...

    Further down the same beach today, no gold but...

    $7.35 in clad. No jewelry to be found. None, not even an earring or toe ring for cryin out loud. What's with that? When I first cranked up and started walking, beep. A dime. And the dimes kept coming like I was in a minefield of dimes. Then after a little while the nickels and quarters started...
