    The drought is over!

    Finally, after over a year of no gold, I picked up 2 rings about 20 minutes apart from a spot that never produced gold ever for me. One is a simple 14k band, the other isn't hallmarked, but a friend believes it's 10k with 27 diamonds. Might be 14k. It's well worn and a style popular from the...

    Gold is so scarce, I'm happy with just silver.

    It's been almost a year since I've come across any gold. Pretty depressing. I was happy just to pick up this ring the other day. Low quality diamonds set in silver, but better than the junk I've been digging up lately.

    largest ring ever

    Well, since I seem to no longer find anything of value, I thought I'd post a pic of this huge ring I found this morning. Amazing...........

    90 degree or tipped back 20 degree scoop handle?

    I'm thinking about getting a new scoop. I curently use a 90 degree/ straight up handle. I have no issues with it but was wondering if those who have used both types have a preference? Thanks

    Black sand

    Hit a hard core black sand beach a few days ago. Ground balanced twice, disc around 3-4, sens around 10. Not much there, a few pieces of a penny, junk pendant, couple of bottle caps, and then as I was about to get to the trail head to leave I picked up this silver ring. Got real excited when...

    leftovers

    I hit 3 spots hard after the long weekend and barely found a couple of coins. Determined to find something, I traveled two and a half hours (one way) this morning to hit some beaches hit by some large surf. When I got there all the beaches were closed. Not due to dangerous surf, but the water...

    golden cooper?

    First find of 2015, not counting the coin and junk of course. Jan 1 my ATX just about blew my ears out on this thing. Not really of any cash value but my daughter swooped on it. Looks like abalone wrapped in gold, but a quick polish on the back side removed the gold color and exposed what...

    A turtle to end the year.

    Hit it for a couple of hours yeaterday. No gold, but my wife was complaining the day before that I never find her anything, so I was happy to walk away with a little silver ring. She was happy too. A good way to end the year. Happy New Year everyone!

    Any deepseekers want to trade coils?

    I have a new stock DD coil that I was going to modify to fit my carbon straight shaft, but realized I'm happy with my 14" infinium coil. I was wondering if any of you with a 20" deepseeker coil that is going unused would like to trade for my stock DD coil? I'd like to try the big mono but just...

    The rings just keep getting smaller.

    It must have been a good sign. In the morning I went for a paddle and ran into a school of dolphins. There were baby dolphins just learning how to swim and come up for a breath. Maybe just born. Then in the afternoon, I snag this tiny silver ring with baby dolphins circling the ring. Really...

    Who makes custom atx coils?

    Someone once posted about a company in Austrialia that made custom mono coils and they were working on ATX versions, but for the life of me I cannot find that post again. Does anyone know the name of that company? Thanks

    My first dirt dig.

    Had a rare chance to check a private preschool that had been around 30 years, so I thought I'd give it a shot. First I tried to use a screwdriver to find the coins, etc., but that wasn't working. I had a D handle shovel and busted it out. Much better. I was able to get a descent size plug...

    SCORE!---not

    I have been on a dry run now for several months. In the dark this morning I found a big heavy shinny mens band. Thought for sure it was 18k by the weight. After I get out of the water and check it in the daylight, it's just tungsten carbide. It is actually a very nice ring but it's only...

    Anyone running in non-motion mode?

    Just wondering if anyone prefers non-motion. I'm going to give it a try. I think it may be easier to pinpoint. LMK what mode you prefer and why. Thanks

    Mono vs DD?

    According to Garrett, the DD outperformes the mono as mineralization increases. I have mono's on my seahunter, but it doesn't have an DD's. My ATX is using DD's, but I have no mono for it. Can anyone out there who has both confirm that the dd's do indead work better in heavy mineralization...

    a short trip to Waikiki

    Aloha all, Just returned from a quick 4 day trip to Oahu. First morning out 30 minutes into searching I found a 10K band. That got me going. Unfortunately after that it went downhill. Next morning I thought I had a silver toe ring, but was just junk. Day 3 I hit haunauma bay. Rules there...

    First run with 5x10 dd---small gold ring!

    I just spent the last couple of days making sure my new 5x10 dd infinium coil would be waterproof. Added a couple layers of 2.4 oz glass over a layer of epoxy resin on the seams and over the entrance for the cable into the coil. Took it out this morning to a place that I left lots of targets...
