    Killer permission multi silver spills! Barber quarter Washington

    Wow what a silver score Mark. Ya gotta love it when coins keep coming out of the hole, particularly silver ones. I've been lucky with silver spills over the years and my biggest was 5 in the same hole. Sounds like that place may have a lot to offer, good luck on your return

    Manticore over E-trac

    Two tone ferrous. I would switch to it to help Id a good target in trash. I only used the Etrac for about a year and a half and the one thing I can say my coin count to trash digs were never better Had they not come out with the Equinox I might still have it. Although its weight was startingt o...

    Minelab has DISCONTINUED the EQUINOX 600 and 800 .....MANTICORE is on sale at $1299....Whats next for Minelab?

    I found pretty much the opposite. While I agree the build quality s a thing of beauty, and the added features of vibration, flashlight, red backlight were nice add ons . I didn't care for the expanded VDI. Performance wise I think the 800 with its compressed VDI is still the better machine...

    Barber & Franklin Halves / Old Political Token

    You sir are the consummate coinshooter. Your knack for silver is uncanny. Congrats on all the shiny and other cool finds. I love the presidential token. What is the thing to the right of the watch. I've dug a couple of them. You mentioned you have a Manticore. Your thoughts ? I use one and...

    First run with the M9

    Maybe more than one target under the coil ? A high recovery speed. I have been running 7 and doing pretty well. Haven't noticed that with mine. Headed out later today, will pay attention and let you know. One thing about mine that drives me crazy that now matter how you adjust it the coil is...

    Learning the Manticore

    I have found the red lines to be accurate about half the time. I dig just about every 23-24-25. Many of them with the red line and yet they are nickels. When I pop the plug, I rescan, if the signal falls apart I know it iron. Most nickles are oblong smears on the centerline. And if I get a high...

    Learning the Manticore

    Pretty good first outing. I have a little over a hundred hours on mine and still dig a lot of junk. I run mine wide open, I feel I can learn more not running any filters. My preference iS ATLC in 5 tone. Good luck and enjoy your new rig.

    with all the chatter going on over on the garrett site about the vx9 update debacle... it got me wondering

    You could go to Minelabs website, plug the 600 in. But all you really need to do is cycle through the frequencies, if the 4 Klhz option is there, then you have the latest upgrade for the Equinox 6/800. Let me know. Good luck.

    The Old Park Gives It Up Again !

    Thank you laplander, I got a chuckle when I dug the top but it does age the area. Hopefully more old relics to be found. I was used to the 8 & 900 maxing out numbers but so far with the Manticore Id has been pretty accurate. Good luck.

    The Old Park Gives It Up Again !

    The day after I found the SLQ and Mercs I went back to the same spot to see what I missed. After 7 hours I didn't hit any shiny but did manage a Buff, a Jeff 4 wheats, 3 in pretty decent shape, 2 tokens and a pretty cool pin or a lid to something. Also dug a key, now usually I just throw them...

    Has anyone added a secret compartments to their Manticore yet????

    Hey Bud, another thought, for the smaller stuff you can pop the bung plug and drop it in the shaft.:sneaky:

    Type 1 SLQ and a Couple Mercs !

    Thank you Donna, I have been lucky with SLQs. I manage to find at least one each year.And as you said most are dateless. Good luck to you.

    Type 1 SLQ and a Couple Mercs !

    Unfortunately she's slick and dateless. A couple weeks back an area of the old park I hit didn't pan out so I jumped into the nearest woods, an Ihp, a transit token and a crusty wheat made the day for me. Figured today I would hit those woods again and have to say, Not Bad ! On the way in I hit...
