    M.D. Goals for 2018. What are you planning to do?

    I'm posting this question on this forum and not the metal detecting forum because most of us have FBS detectors which may or may not? make a difference to the answers to this question. For me, this next year will see me moving to Utah and 450 miles approx from the SoCal beaches which I've grown...

    Silver and gold!...finally!

    It's been a great day for detecting! I got the cub scout tie clasp, a thin 14K gold ankle? chain and the little 925 silver piece all in the same park. The chain was a lucky find because it was near some clad and I eyeballed it!. I air tested it and of course and as expected, my detector didn't...

    Any good Southern Utah detecting sites?

    After living here in Southern California for the past 40 years, I will be moving to Southern Utah in the New Year and wanted to start asking and doing research on areas worth detecting there. I am having a house built (I have 10 acres there)near Cedar City UT. Are their any metal detectorist's...

    Finally got some 925!!

    The last couple of day's it's been cool and overcast, perfect weather for detecting! I just got this silver ring out of the ground and it broke a 'dry spell' on not finding anything interesting or worth anything! The cooler weather is so welcome after a sizzling summer here in Southern...

    Chinese hacker or? Contact Moderator?

    It looks like this is the only forum that has been hacked? How can someone contact the moderator to get these posts removed? I won't click onto any of them in case they may have a virus. Have you clicked on them to see what the heck they are all about?

    What Headphone's Do You Use?

    These are my current headphones. Thor X by Sentey. After trying a lot of headphones, these are the best in my opinion, at least for me! The ear muffs are super soft and they don't make your ears sweat like others do. The head band is stainless steel and adjustable and they are lightweight. The...

    A nice 2 hr hunt!

    Went detecting this afternoon and came back with these items! I was very surprised that the cameo was intact even though it was about 2 inches down! Having had stomach flu recently (ugh)!!! it was really great to get out and have some detecting fun in the park!!! I keep looking for gold rings...

    Junky ring but lot's of fun!

    My last find from the other day was this cheap ring which I'll throw into my finds collection for the grandkids to play with! Benjamin, one of my 7 g/kid's is currently playing with some of those finds. I've given away a lot of rings and jewellery to the older g/kid's, wife and family, so when I...

    $1 Coin and some silver!

    It's always a nice surprise finding $1 coins and they are always welcome! The ring had, had an encounter with a parks and rec; lawn mower but still intact and silver coins in any denomination are always welcome to!! In a week's time I get to stay a week at the beach so everyday, I'll be hitting...

    Pinpointer Falsing.

    Pinpointer falsing..... This has been talked about before now and because I suspect it's a way more prevalent problem than we all realise, it's worth addressing again. I don't think anyone has come up with a definitive answer to pinpointer's falsing that actually is permanent. BTW....I have a...

    Fresh drops musings!

    First off, it's obviously not silver! I sure wished it was though!! I just wanted to say that I'm constantly scanning the ground hoping to come across fresh drops which can be eyeballed unless they have been stepped on or pressed into the ground by those big park lawnmowers or foot traffic. A...

    Cell phone found!

    Found a cell phone under a couple of inches of sand in a kids play area in a park today. So far it's 80% charged so that's a good sign! I'll have to replace the touch screen to get it totally functioning and see if there are any pic's and maybe the owner's contact info;.? What do you guy's do...

    A mixed assortment of finds!

    I was surprised to dig this big of a shell casing from a public park today! It looks like it wasn't fired though and was probably brought on by someone wanting to play with it and to separate the bullet from the cartridge? (I'm no expert when it comes to guns and ammo). I got the little car and...

    Gold St Christopher medallion!!!.......

    I wish!!!.....I was disappointed that it wasn't gold but maybe the next target will be!! Looking at this forum's posting's, there is hardly anyone posting finds anymore so it looks like I'm not alone in not finding many good targets? No matter, I'm very excited at having an awesome Summer and...

    Religious Medallion....kinda cool!!

    Found this religious medallion today in a local park and I was surprised that I had passed it up before! It just goes to show if you approach an area in a different direction, whether it's a park, or a stretch of beach, or an old property, you always will aquire fresh targets. I just wished it...

    A solid '39' signal! musing's and observations!!

    I went recently to a local park and as I swung my coil across a spot of ground, I got a solid 39 signal. I swung my coil in different directions and it was a consistent unwavering 39! I raised my coil up a little and yes, it wasn't very deep like a big foil wad/aluminum can might sound......It...

    Porsche Key and a BB Ring!

    I wished the ring had been a gold championship ring! Ah well, next time! It says 'Xtreme Baseball' on the front. The baseball field is in the background of the pic. I'm sure the owner of that Porsche key was really bummed out when he got to his car and found he lost his ignition key. I actually...

    Broken Coil Lugs Solution!

    Well, it had to happen sometime! The lugs on my 11 inch coil broke off. I posted a solution on the 'Modifications Forum' if you have the same problem as I did. You may want to check periodically for stress cracks around your coil lugs. It would be disappointing to have this happen out in the...

    Broken Coil Lugs Solution.

    Call me cheap but I just couldn't throw away and replace a coil that has found me so much gold and silver over the past few years just because the lugs broke off. So....I repaired my old coil friend with a 3/4" wide plastic electrical box (cut to fit)and some new nylon washers and screws from...
