    Weekend yard hunting

    We found a lot of sweet looking places where old silver wasn't hiding at today but I can't complain. This new town is showing some obvious signs of hunting pressure at most of the obvious places but a few quaint out of the way properties continue to produce. I ended the day 9 short of a dozen...

    Silver withdrawal fix today

    With a hectic work schedule, I haven't been out hunting in over a month. Full withdrawal began to set in so I had to call my buddy up to get out and dig today. We drove to a new town today and it looks promising. Greg found a Sterling ring, 06' V nickel and a 53' roosie. I snagged an 06' barber...

    03/18 Yard hunting with some success

    We got back on the horse again today after two back-to-back disappointing hunts. I decided to switch from the 6x8 sef to the 10x12 sef and it did not let me down. We started off the day with permission to hunt 4 houses that we have been wanting to hunt badly. I started the day using the 6x8 and...

    03/08 Yard Hunting with surprise visit from police :shrug:

    Today we returned to the area that has been so productive lately. We knocked on quite a few doors with many people not being home, probably at work. The few houses that people were home at allowed us to hunt. Thats a risk you take with midweek hunting. Apparently we were suspicious enough...

    03/06 Yard hunting

    Today my buddy and I hunted 4 more yards in a nearby town. We didn't find any real old silver but still managed a few keepers that we are still happy with. His take for the day was a 42' Walker, 43' merc, and a big token. I managed 2 washington quarters from 2 different yards, a defective 1916...

    A few more keepers today

    Today I returned to the property where I had found the barber quarter a few weeks ago. The snow is mostly melted and the ground was diggable in most places. My buddy and I gridded the area pretty slowly with not much to show. I dug zero coins in a few hours time and my buddy dug 2 or 3 clad. I...

    Finally got one near the top of my wish list

    It's an odd coin to have near the top of your "wish list" of finds, but it's there because I have never dug a barber quarter..until now. Barber dimes are a fairly common find here. Seated dimes and quarters also pop up from time to time. But the barber quarter has eluded me. I found this one at...

    10x12 SEF vs. X-12

    I hate to beat a dead horse but I tend to do this when its starts to get cold and I can't get out to hunt. I just finished a full season with the Sunray X-12 coil and couldn't be happier with it. It's lighter than my stock Exp II coil and gets some awesome depth and great coverage while handling...

    10K Gold mens wedding band

    I don't post finds very often but sgoss66 inspires me. Last Sunday I found my first gold ring of 2011. Dozens and dozens of pulltabs and a handful of nickels turned into a gold ring, which reminds me why I waste my time digging those signals.:smile: JJ

    Silver

    Hello, i am new to tesoro's though i have read about them for years and nearly purchased a few different models on a few occasions. My 8 year old daughter was really showing interest in MD'ing towards the end of this last season and I think it may be about time to get her hunting next season...

    Finds from last couple of hunts

    Havent posted in a while but have had a little more time to hunt lately. Here are some finds from the last few hunts this week. I wanted to get my fix before winter sets in. The gun is an older Nichols Detective 250 cap gun (works). The token brought multiple offers while I was trying to ID it...

    Team ATC

    A sign my new spot may have been visited by.........the others :biggrin: Old park has given up a few wheaties already so I think there may be more. I checked them out on Youtube, very entertaining hunters! I sent them an email asking about the token and they said they bury them at places...

    Not much diggins', not real old, but its silver.

    I was excited to get out this morning and try some new settings. (Thanks LaDigger!) The first place I went was an old ball field across from a park. Went back to check it out today and apparently they built a new fire station right on top of the old ball field.:shrug: The old park across the...

    coin pattern vs. iron mask (exp II)

    I'm still fairly new to using the Exp II and have thoroughly read the manual and Andys Etrac/Exp book but cannot find any info on hunting in iron mask mode vs. the basic coin pattern. I have really only used the coin pattern since I got the machine. I mainly coin hunt. I have yet to dig a piece...

    They left a few....

    I planned to visit four small nearby towns that I have never hunted this AM. The first town on the trip has a small park that two of my buddies hunted a couple days ago and reported finding some older stuff. Soooo..... I thought i better check it out myself. :biggrin: It didn't take long to...
