    A silver day!

    Went back to the attorney's office where I had recently found my first mercury head and that child's metal detector. Found all this today. My dad also found a silver Rosie. All in all this house has given up to me my first and second ever mercury heads, my first ever buffalo head and 14...

    1st 2014 hunt = silver and surprise!!!

    Went out for a quick hunt on a nice day. Had permission to hunt a local attorneys office which is an older home in town (1918). Didn't find much at first but found out why later. Finally found a few wheaties (1935, 1940, 1945, 1945s and 1951) and my first ever mercury head (1938)!!! But best...

    Nothing major just interesting

    I had been using the concentric 5x8 coil for about two years now. I liked the DD but had never used one before so I purchased the 5x8. Well after deciding that I had learned some of the ins and outs of the detector I thought I would try the DD again. I put in on today and went out in my...

    Finally a trip to the mother-in-laws pays off :clapping:

    Went for a trip to the mother-in-laws house yesterday. This house was built in 1900 and although I have hunted there a few times I have not had any luck with old coins. I did find a 1950's razor on my first trip but this trip was a little better. Found a 1947s Wheaty and this pin. Located on...

    ATP Memory Question

    Well I am having an old age memory problem and I read the owners manual and can not find the answer so thought I would ask the pros. I use the APT in Pro Mode but when I turn it off and then turn it back on later it is back in Standard Mode. Is that what it is supposed to be doing? Somewhere...

    First Silver Ring:super:

    Was hunting at my sister-in-laws house and dug up this nice .925 silver ring with a heart charm on it :thumbup:. It was about four inches deep and VDI was a solid 82. I was hunting in Pro All Metal Mode with Disc set at 40. It's my first ever silver ring and the fourth ring of the...

    Question with a thought

    I was wondering what the lowest VDI display was someone had on a silver coin or silver jewelry? I have been going to a beach area and I get frustrated not finding any jewelry or coins. I was thinking I may turn the notch discrimination up to notch out everything below 75ish. I realize this...

    So Wondering What Happened

    Haven't seen a post from the guys who had permission to hunt the old settler's grounds with the big pecan grooves use for picnics and can't find the original post on here any longer. Just wanting an update...looked like a great site and was ready to see some nice finds. If you guys are reading...

    Impressed by 9x12 Concentric Coil:crazy:

    Well I got tired of sitting in the house and had to try out the 9x12 I bought (and check to see if the ATP was still working after my trip to the lake). I hit an area I have gone over with my Ace 150 more than once and with the ATP DD when I first got it (my front yard!!!). Was really...

    9x12 Concentric ?

    After reading several posts about the 9x12 Concentric Coil I decided to buy one. One of the main reasons was because everyone said it seemed to not pick up the pulltabs as much as the DD coil. With that said, can some of you explain why it doesn't seem to pickup the pulltabs as much as the DD...

    Send it back or give it another try?

    Well I have finally got a day off from working in this record Texas Heat!! Since it was going to be another record high today I thought I would try my new metal scoop and the AT at a local lake. At least I could stay somewhat cool in the water (100 degrees by 10:30 AM). AT was working...

    First Hunt in over two weeks

    Went out with my Tesoro buddy again today. This is my first hunt in over two weeks thinks to working the holidays and such. Hit an older home I have wanted to hit for a long time...he got permission from the owner he happens to know. He tore me up again...so I thought! At the end of the day...

    Found My First Ring

    It's beat up and looks like it was hit with a mower but it's marked 1/60 14k RGP and it's a ring! Also found a 1950d wheaty! Starting to figure out those ATP tones.

    Frustration broken by silver! :clapping:

    Well I was getting very frustrated over my last few hunts! My buddy was still finding all kinds of stuff with his Tesoro while I was digging up :pulltab:. Went to the lake and got the Pro wet and the 6 hour day produced .21 of clad coins. Went a few days later to a good spot on an old Army...
