    Beware of fraudulent/forged CZ3Ds. :ranting:

    Well folks, I'm generally the mild mannered Clark Kent detectorist, not much gets to me. I take the good with the bad and try to take life with a smile (and the occasional glass of bourbon, Buffalo Trace, to be exact. :-) ) But if there is one thing that gets my feathers ruffled, it is dishonest...

    CZ3D

    Hi all, I have a nice newer (El Paso) Cz3D that has been certified by Tom D. at 10.5" on a dime. I personally contacted Tom on this one to verify his calibration and depth. It's in nice shape, 8" coil and cover, manual and extra coil bolt. $450 shipped. PayPal gifted or add 3%. I will consider...

    CZ3D revisited

    After a four year hiatus, I finally have another 3D coming! My last one was tuned, but only validated at just over 9". I loved how these units sniff out the nickels amongst the trash, but wanted a hot one. From what I gather, this is a newer unit, but certified at either 12.5 or 13.5" (previous...

    Daily finds with the Core

    I made it out today to an older estate as the fields are being planted. I only managed a couple of older coins, one 1887 IH and what I suspect is another Chinese coin from the 1700s. At least that's what the last one was. I'll look it up later. I was kind of bummed upon washing the Indian head...

    2nd run with the Core

    I made it out to a couple spots tonight to test the Core a bit. I ended up finding the other half of a trigger guard found earlier this spring at the button site. Only one button found, albeit a newer one. The trigger piece gave a soft, yet solid four way hit at a solid 10". The pic on it's side...

    First run with the Core

    Despite breaking a finger at work yesterday I was able to test the Core out at a field site for a few hours. This site has been hunted hard with another detector. In fact, my last hunt here produced one non-ferrous target. I focused on the house site itself as it is the hardest hit and the...

    Core on the way!

    In the search for a decent detector in iron that doesn't break the bank for extra coils, I've opted to give the Core pro pack a go. I've heard good things about this detector and look forward to trying it out at my field sites. It will be interesting to see if the the shooter coil can find...

    Core pro pack coils

    Hi all. I just sold my Frenchie machine and am looking hard at the Core pro pack. I'm thinking this would be a great package for an all around field and home site style of detecting. I know the shooter coil is superb at separation, but what are you folks thinking about the other two coils...

    Deus for sale

    I have an XP Deus up for sale cheap! I purchased this unit new last fall from jmt detectors. It is the WS4 package with the 9"coil, and works great. I just bought another one with the 11" coil and the wife is getting a little vocal, so this one needs to go! Like I said, works well, no scratches...

    A few hunts worth of finds

    Just some of the goodies I've been lucky enough to dig here in Michigan so far. Hoping to get a few more hunts in before crops are planted. I run the Deus with WS4 hp and 9" coil. Typically run 18kHz, sensitivity from 85-90, reactivity 2, disc at 10, silencer at +1. Pretty tame settings, but...

    Think I found my first Civil War button.

    Found these two buttons today at a school site no less here in Michigan! Looks like just a general service button, but I'll take it! I also found what looks like a wanna be dollar gold coin button. Any further help or confirmation on these two finds would be great! Thanks!

    Sundial, security badge, and some whatsits..

    Made it out to an early 1800s site for an hour tonight. Found an old pocket sundial, what's left of a security badge, what looks like a very old lipstick container, some type of ornate clip, and a female decorative piece.

    Two firsts this evening.

    I started this fall season with the hopes of digging my first shield nickel, half dime, and large cent. Well it's been accomplished! Found my half dime earlier in the season, along with two shield nickels, and tonight I dug my first large cent and my first V nickel, ( I had forgotten that I've...

    Buckle id

    Okay guys, being in Michigan the only CW related find I've ever dug was a McClellen token last year. But I seemed to have stumbled across something of the same time period and it looks to be possibly military. Any ideas? The letters AG or AC in fancy script with cannons, swords, muskets, and a...

    Field hunt in the mud.

    The temps soared into the upper 30s today here in MI so I had to get out and play in the mud. Found a skeleton key, a thimble, a couple of toe taps, one has a patent date of 1858, which was pretty cool to find, a couple of unknown clips, a 59' fattie, and my second shield nickel this year ( 1868...

    Finally, some gold!

    Found an old gold ring at one of my field sites last week, but wanted to wait for confirmation before posting. It's a plain wedding band, no makers marks, but gold just the same. Just verified from a local jewellers. 10k, bent, and poorly sized with a copper resizing weld, but it reformed well...

    Double EAGLE!!

    Oh, maybe I said that wrong. I meant two flying eagles...lol. Found my first one last year and I find two this year on the same hunt! They are both 1858. Also got a nice dry goods token and a London warranty flat button. Was a fun time playing in the iron. Deus in gmp mode settings were max...

    A few recent hunts.

    Well I haven't posted any hunts in a while as there hasn't been any fields opened up until the past few days! Here are a few goodies I've managed to get at. Still waiting for a couple of my oldest sites to open up, but in the mean time I'm working on a tribe....Lol. Two fatties on the right, and...

    First Deus hunt!

    First off I'd like to say I really like this detector, and not just due to the finds. I dug a lot of scrap pieces of copper, etc. But that's expected when field hunting, you dig it all. I'm curious about the button. This is the first if this style I've ever dug. The back says Rich on the top and...
