    Something shiny can make the difference...

    between a good hunt turning into a better hunt. Again looking for surface coins but not much there. The tents were still up and the guys were taking them down. We got inside the tents and still nothing on the surface. A quarter and 2 pennies on the surface. The rest were down 3+ inches. The...

    I was hoping to find a ton of fresh dropped but not!

    With all the people (around 100,000-200,000 or more) watching the fireworks last night I knew the the perfect place to get fresh dropped coins, NOT! Not many on top of the ground most about 1" to 3" down. It was a good hunt and picked up another 1 pound coin. I suppose I could drive to England...

    4' x 100' patch of dirt.

    Went out to dig some fresh dropped coins but found only a few coins in the park. So I figured I would look for a few pennies. I was out less than 2 hours. This is from a small patch of 4x100 feet. The F70 is great for these kind of hunts. I notch out iron, foil and pull tabs. Run Disc@1...

    took the F70 out today...

    The only thing that was different about this hunt was the 1939 nickle. I thought 1939 was still a buffalo nickle year. No that was the first year for Jefferson nickle. It is like every day is a learning experience when metal detecting. Not exactly secret society or hidden universal knowledge but...

    Compadre gives me another heart stopper...

    Did I mention it is raining again today? Looked at the radar on the weather channel and it looked like it would stop or almost stop for an hour or two. So went out and had to wait in the car for about 20-30 minutes and the rain slowed. Picked up 44 coins and pendent for a necklace. Gad that...

    Rain rain rain and than more rain.. Went out with the Compadre!!!

    Did I mention that it has been raining? It was fog and rain this morning with the temp in the low 50's. I just had to get out so I unpacked the Compadre. If I was going to have any fun at all in the rain it would be with the Compadre. Used a plastic sandwich bag for a rain cover and off I went...

    It was a nice quarter day...

    Got out to have some fun detecting. To my surprise a good amount of quarters showed up. It was one heck of a hunt. Detector was acting up the last hunt and I thought it was the site but this morning I decided to swap out the batteries even though the detector had fun bars on battery power. With...

    It's not gold! It's not silver! But a nice surprise!!!

    My first dig yesterday in an old dump. Big iron and rust all over the place. F70 did not like being there. Hard time to even pin point. Targets continued for feet and others started. Under the sod crushed gravel. I spend about an hour and gave up. Only because of the first dig I kept at it. I...

    Please don't hate me.....

    I am just an old guy that goes out there in the parks with the wrong settings on his detector. How in the heck can he find anything? Here is Hunt #2 I was following a guy that never covered any hole and I stayed in the wood chips like he did. I am glad he didn't get into the grass with all the...

    2nd Try: WTT Compadre with 5.75" coil for Teknetics Eurotek or White's Coinmaster..

    Don't let anyone tell you the compadre can't find anything valuable!!!

    No body wants to trade so went out and hit a few totlots with the compadre. Notice the find of the day. It is a scrumptious chocolate silver dollar coin and not even melted. WOW what a find.:thumbup: That is a find of great value.:clapping: Almost paid for the compadre. :rofl: Oh also found a...

    Ok I took the compadre out of the box again.

    I have the compadre up for trade on the classified but it seems no one interested in trading. So I took the compadre out of the box and hit the parks. Excellent nickle day and dimes also. The ring has no hallmark but it is nice. The erring is also different. I will be taking the compadre out...

    Tabman this is what happens to us normal guys without a Genie

    Tabman: I came upon a plowed up section about 100' x 10' in an old park. I said this is Tabman territory!! I could just see the old silver flying into my pouch. It was dusty, hard a rock digging and no shade. I stayed until done. Digging almost every repeatable signal. Some I saw were tabs and...

    Compadre and me #20

    Went out early today to see if I could beat the tot lot guy. He was already there but look what I found that he passed up. I am not going to tell him how he missed all these good targets. It is clear to me and I say keep missing those targets. I will keep following you and digging up the missed...

    I can't believe I did this... My compadre and me..Hunt #17

    My F70 came back from Fisher and it is almost like new. I packed up the Compadre and put it in the locker. I did 3 hunts with the F70 and this morning I took the compadre out of the locker and put it in the car and put the F70 in the house. I went to the volley ball court with all the pennies...
