    G2 Sniffs Out Some Silver And Lead:teknetics:

    I went back to the old home site that I've detecting for a few days with my Tesoro detectors. I thought I would give the G2 a whirl today with the 5 x 10 DD coil attached. The 1962 silver quarter was giving a one way reading in a grown over gravel road bed. I dug down around 6 inches and popped...

    Tesoro Vaquero Strikes Silver :tesoro::usaflag:

    I went back to the old farm house that was built in the 1830's this morning to do some more detecting. I decided to give the Vaquero and the 5.75 inch concentric coil a try today. I found 5 wheat pennies, a 1928 Mercury dime, a 1949 silver quarter, some sort of old pins and a old lock. I had the...

    Tesoro Outlaw Keeps On Giving:tesoro::usaflag:

    I went to detect around an old house that was built around the mid 1800's to try my luck. I started out with the Outlaw with the 8 inch doughnut coil attached. After about 30 minutes of detecting I decided to put it back in the car and get out one of my high tech detectors. That didn't last...

    I Had A Great Time Out Today With Tesoro Outlaw:tesoro::usaflag:

    The weather was perfect for detecting.:detecting: I decided to detect an old park with the Outlaw this morning with the 8 inch doughnut coil attached. I set the discrimination to its minimum, threshold to a slight hum and wide open on the sensitivity. Right off I found the war nickel. I really...

    Tesoro Outlaw Goes Relic Hunting :tesoro::usaflag:

    I went up to northeast Alabama for my biannual hunting and fishing trip. I decided to take some time to do some metal detecting on a old wagon road that cuts through some woods near the cabin. I found around a dozen old shotgun shell brass, a bunch of buckshot, several 22 bullets, part of a...

    I 'm Pretty Sure That I Got Close To Gold Ring Today:smile:

    With all the lost coins and drinking, there just has to be a lost gold ring there. All I have to do is clean out all the thrash to find it.:detecting: tabman

    Tesoro Outlaw Still Producing :tesoro::usaflag:

    I went back to a location that I have not detected for awhile to recheck some curb lines using the 5.75 inch concentric coil on the Outlaw. I found a few clad dimes in places that I know that I've been over several times before with a larger on the Outlaw and with some other detectors. The...

    Tesoro Outlaw - Yeah There Was Some Silver Still Hiding In All That Trash

    I headed back to curb line this morning with the Outlaw/5.75 inch concentric coil combination. I found 50 coins including a 1963 Rosie. Not a single wheat penny was to be had. After finding 14 wheat pennies on that curb line yesterday, you'd think I'd find at least one today. Go figure. You can...

    Tesoro Outlaw -Oh Yeah Baby!:tesoro::usaflag:

    I got a few hours of detecting in this morning. I started out with one of my high tech detectors. I wasn't finding much with it and I wasn't having a good time, so I went back to my vehicle and got out the Outlaw with the 10.5 inch concentric coil attached and hit the open areas. I found the New...

    The Tesoro Cortes Goes Deep On Dimes:tesoro::usaflag:

    Here are my finds from a couple of short hunts with the Cortes using the 8 inch doughnut coil. At one site I set the Cortes discrimination just high enough to knock out foil caps from sports drinks and used the narrow notch to get rid of the pull tabs. I ended up digging around 8 nickels...

    I Did Some Testing With A Tiny 14k Gold Necklace

    I found a tiny 14k gold necklace in my wife's jewelry box and did some testing with it. I went out in the yard and threw the necklace on the ground in a metal free spot and started swinging. I wasn't surprised that my Tesoro Compadre with its 5.75 inch coil would sound off on it, because it's...

    First Time Out With My New Tesoro Bandido II

    I didn't get skunked.:smile: I found this real tiny 925 silver pendant and I came close to finding a gold ring. Just look at that pile of trash. Anyone of those pieces of trash could had been a gold ring. I was running minimum discrimination and digging all repeatable signals. I found the...

    I Faced The Heat And Dry Ground With The Tesoro Outlaw:tesoro::usaflag:

    I got out yesterday to see what I could dig up. I didn't detect for long, because of the heat and dry ground. I set the Outlaw's discrimination to its minimum and searched around the sidelines and bleacher area at a baseball field. I found most of the stuff in the shade of some trees that...

    I Just Bought A Tesoro Bandido II

    I got it to compare heads up to the Outlaw. It comes with a 7 inch concentric coil and a 8 inch doughnut coil. I've owned one before, and really liked it a lot. I sold it because its high tone made my ears ring. It's such a good detector, it's worth another try. Maybe I can figure out...

    Tesoro Compadre Payday :tesoro::usaflag:

    I dug like crazy a couple a days ago looking for a gold chain and all I got for it was a lot of trash and some really sore muscles. I went back today and on my 4th target I found this gold watch bezel. It was around 3 or 4 inches deep and gave a weak but repeatable signal. You can see in the...
