    Repost of a "What is it?"

    I'm the ultimate lurker and rarely post since 2008, too busy/lazy or a combo of both=) But I enjoy everyone's pictures, stories, and perspective. I posted thread titled, "Looking for Educated Guesses" in the What Is It forum. Anyone who feels like venturing over and reading the post I'd...

    Looking For Educated Guesses

    So I popped this in a ghost town I've been hunting out west here. It looks to be a clip of some sort? On the face it does have the name of a company including the town name. I photoshopped the town name out since its a relatively unknown site I just started to hunt. But I did research it...

    Public Land Conflicts: Mining

    Been a month or two since I've posted but I had a request. I'll have to make this short. I'm taking a Public Lands Conservation/Conflict Resolution course and I need to write a short 20pg paper analyzing a public lands conflict. I'm one of the few in the course who tends to challenge the status...

    Signal Enhancers?

    Just curious what everyones impression of signal enhancers are. I've always been a bit skeptical of them and saw them as a bit gimmicky. But I had the chance to run one while using Mark's 3500 last weekend and actually like them. It seems like all they do is increase the volume of ALL...

    Rye Patch

    I have to admit Bob, I was somewhat relieved you only found blade scrapes. I was anticipating I might get on this week and see a post about a 1/4 oz nugget that was found after some idiots left it in a scrape... Still, very glad to see that you had good success out there. Very nices pieces...

    Found a bottle...anything special?

    While out nuggetshooting in Nevada I ran across a bottle that looked old. But for all I know it could be from the 50's. It looks similar to a beer bottle, except the glass is multi-colored when you look from the right angle. Basically it looks like the dark brown glass has a little oil slick...

    Problem with electrolosis/ Electrical Question?!?

    I was bored yesterday evening and deciding to do a little electrolosis on the button I found(see my post below). I didn't particularly care if it deteriorated, it'd be a learning process either way. Problem is I can't get it to work. I followed a tutorial I found online and have a few ideas...

    Last Weeks Finds and Questions

    I think I've finally turned the corner on my X2, I kind of hit a plateau after about 50 hours and the deep iffy signal just weren't clicking for me like I thought they should. After making a few adjustments and having a friend clear up some bad advice I had been using(didn't know any better)...

    What is it, how to clean?

    Gaining Permission(New Twist For Me)

    I stuck this in the general detecting thread but thought I stick it here to. Sorry for the double post. Maybe I just need to say a nice long prayer before asking... In my opinion, I have a decent success rate for getting permission. However, when it comes to homes, all I've ever targeted are...

    Getting Permission(New Twist for Me)

    I stuck this in the general detecting forum but thought I'd throw it out here too. In my opinion, I have a decent success rate for getting permission. However, when it comes to homes, all I've ever targeted are homes that are resodding, so getting permission is easy. One of my detecting...

    Gaining Permission(new twist for me)

    In my opinion, I have a decent success rate for getting permission. However, when it comes to homes, all I've ever targeted are homes that are resodding, so getting permission is easy. One of my detecting buddies sent me a list of older homes he'd like to try(doesn't know the homeowners). Has...

    Problems taking close up photo...

    I have a Olympus Stylus 300 Digital camera(3.2 megapixel) and even when I put it on macro I can't get a good image of a coin or nugget(I nugget shoot as well). Is my camera good enough to take the pics so many people post on here of thier finds? Anything I'm missing? Thanks ahead of time, Eric

    Getting Permission: Letter

    The wife and I just recently got to Utah. We'll only be here for about 2 years. I've started my research of this area. I've found quite a few homes that were built in the late 1800's. I was considering knocking on every door(what I usually do) because that generally has a much higher success...

    Question? Plastic Coil to Lower Rod Bolt...

    Haven't been on in a while. The wife and I finally moved out to Utah from Idaho so I can go back to college and finish my last year of coursework I had put off. I seemed to have lost my bolt that connects the coil to the lower rod. Has anyone found a generic replacement piece that can be used...
