    Short hunt today...

    Have been really busy lately getting ready to move, selling off some things we are not taking on the trip, including our beloved Honda which found a new home today! Got out with Dad today after performing some car maintenance to a spot not far from his place, where an old church was torn down...

    Tot Lot Surprise!

    Took the kids to a tot lot today not far from home until sundown - and I just happened to have the Deus in my trunk so I could play too :rolleyes: I have heard that this location has yielded some CW-era finds in the past from a few local hunters, but I was only after jewelry today. There were a...

    Seeded Hunt...and the Day After!

    Yesterday I went on my first seeded hunt in almost 25 years - I used a 12 khz program that is very similar to what I use when hunting rentals, except for this hunt there were period CW bullets, round balls, and some tokens along with silver coins. I decided to eliminate all Notch except 00-38...

    Factory Programs Optimized for 9" coil?

    I got to wondering after reading this recent thread: http://www.findmall.com/read.php?83,2171624 Are the Factory settings, which were written before the 11" coil came about, optimized for ONLY the 9" coil? And if this is so, what parameters could be altered to Factory settings to get more "out...

    Another untouched rental!

    Dug quite a bit of trash but many of the better finds were hiding closeby but deeper. Spent about 3 hours at this house and hunted the front yard only, probably more goodies to be had in the backyard! Corner lots always turn up a few extra goodies IMO! First time in a LONG time where I didn't...

    Short morning hunt

    Made it out before the rain got us today and hunted a recently available corner lot just down the street from where I found the 1932 S quarter and Walker. I think I will rename this street "Silver Street" since 9 silver coins from three hunts have come from houses on it so far! :bouncy: Arrived...

    Yesterday's Hunt at three different locations!

    Gerald (Tabman) and I hit two different places yesterday and did very well at the first site. I went on later in the afternoon to a rental not far from where I moved from last year and scored BIG! Video is from the first and second locations - had trouble keeping a charge at the third spot...

    Best day I've had with the Deus....hands down! :detecting:

    Gerald (Tabman) and I got started at an old house this morning - the weather was just about perfect and old coins of all types just kept rolling in today! First signal I dug was a beautiful 1925 S Wheat - it has that lovely dark green patina on both sides, and surprisingly enough most of the...

    Tuesday night hunt...

    Went back to the fairgrounds last Tues night and hunted with Zippy and a new member of our local detecting club. I studied some maps of the fairgrounds to try and get a good idea of where more coins would have been dropped versus other areas, all in all the three of us put in at least 5 hours of...

    Buttons and a Buffalo...

    Dad and I got out today to an old farm for a few hours but he had to leave early today. We hunted a site where a house once stood, possibly a sharecropper's shack built 100-150 years ago. Not sure exactly when this house was built, but was gone between 1963 and 1969 according to aerial maps...

    Gold, silver, and carbon!

    Dad and I were finally able to take my nephew out for his first detecting trip today. We have been trying to get toegether and do this since Christmas but between bad weather and time off only today was it a possibility. He is on spring break this week and the weather couldn't be nicer. I had...

    Nickels and pennies...

    Got out with Dad today to the fairgrounds before the rain got the best of us. Started off with a couple of zincolns, and a few minutes later hit a nice 83 which was the first Wheat of the day. Not three feet away, another Wheat surfaced, and ten feet further a 1942 P war nickel showed itself...

    Yesterday's hunt in the Crazy Cold...

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?edit=vd&v=iTuky6y597M I know there are places in the US right now that are MUCH colder, but for around here it's pretty darn frigid...but at least the ground was soft and digging was fairly easy. I could have picked a rental house or two, or could have visited...

    Coldest all-day hunt EVER! :tongue:

    I know there are places in the US right now that are MUCH colder, but for around here it's pretty darn frigid...but at least the ground was soft and digging was fairly easy. I could have picked a rental house or two, or could have visited other old parks in the city, but what sold me on MLK Park...

    Pro-Pointer Envy...

    OK Garrett - it's time to unleash the orange PP AT and stop with the marketing hype. Much of the US is buried under snow and ice right now so it's a good time to "make them available to Joe Public". I, for one, am tired of all the hoopla and sales tactics... Really appreciate the excellent...

    Back to the fairgrounds...still giving up goodies!

    It was a good night to get out and hunt - the only place I know in town that will reliably give up at least one old coin per hunt has been kept on the back burner for a long time, but tonight I paid those fairgrounds a visit. The city has repaired the lights behind one of the buildings that...

    Dad got an AT Pro today!

    It was about a month early, but an opportunity presented itself in the Classified section and I jumped on it. Since many of us are snowed in, and looks like west TN will be getting some frozen precip in the next couple of days; it couldn't have come at a better time! Led him to my trunk and...

    Yesterday's hunt...

    I posted this in the Deus forum but wanted to post it here as well since this time of year it's hard to get out there... Filmed an "OK quality" video, it's not my best but it gets the job done LOL. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pe698H0siGY&edit=vd

    A Cure for the Monday Blues...silver streak goes on!

    Made it out yesterday on a cold, windy, and cloudy day to an older city park built in 1901. I had good intentions on hitting a few rentals, did some research on the newest-listed rentals and had a couple that dated back to the 1910s and 1920s, but wasn't able to secure permission on ANYTHING...

    Clad was nowhere to be found...

    Had some unusually warm February weather today so I took advantage of this and headed to a homesite not quite a mile from home earlier tonight. I've pulled a couple silvers from there on the last two hunts and a few Wheats as well, along with three rabies and dog tax tokens. This place has good...
