    Beach finds

    Did a short 2 hour beach hunt today. All of the coins are clad. One dime is a 1966. All but 1 of the pennies are unreadable.....but all rang up as Zinc. The lure rang up in the high dime area. All items were found in "dry sand". Been having trouble getting my Legacy 3500 to ground balance in...

    I'm getting used to my Legacy3500 and really enjoying finding all sorts of things....exactly what and where it says. I do a lot of beach hunting and on dry sand this unit is AWESOME!! The ground balance adjustment really helps. The problem Is in the wet sand. I can't get the unit to ground...

    A "First" Find For Me - Paper!

    I went to the beach today for a short hunt after work. Found me another Hot Wheels, 1 quarter, 2 dimes, 5 pennies. So what's with the background.....the $20 bill you ask? As I was hunting, a local approached me and said he knew where I could find a $20 bill with my metal detector. I'm...

    Hunting Private Property

    Question for the masses....... If you ask to hunt on private property and they agree to allow you to hunt, who gets to keep what you find? How do you handle the "transfer of ownership" of any artifacts, coins, or items you find? I'm curious about this because there are some areas around here...
