    Thursday at an old park

    Had some time Thursday afternoon so I ran out to a park that I've found old stuff at in the past. Detected slowly, listened for deeper targets. Ended up with 15 wheaties, 2 Indians (1902 and ????), a '35 Merc, a 1914 Barber and a sterling "I'm a Catholic" medallion. Most of the coins were 7-8...

My brother also got a Merc and several wheaties. This...

    Few Hours Before the Heat on Saturday

    I hunted for a grand total of 2.5 hours on Saturday morning at an old park before the heat wore me out and came up with a couple of silver ladies. 3 Mercs ('35, '39 and '43) as well as 6 wheaties, an ornate brass handle off of something and a Baptist Summer School pin. Still luvin' this machine!

    Wednesday/Thursday

    Hot, dry and dusty - CTX still finds 'em

    Got out and hunted an old park that I've done many times the past few years (as have many others) - ground is bone dry and very hard to dig. Saturday, the first signal I dug was in around some old tree roots exposed on top of the ground - very shallow 12-42 - an 1898 O Barber dime at 1 inch. The...

    Mystery Button

    Was out hunting yesterday with my brother at a mid-1800's house and found this button in a heavily iron infested area - only about 3" deep but difficult to detect (used combined mode on CTX). It's pretty beat up, missing the back but unusually heavy. It looks like an older (pre civil war?) eagle...

    Day 2 with the CTX

    My brother Tim stopped by after his "seated" hunt and we swung by a local fave spot. We're still getting used to the CTX 3030 and it is finding stuff that we've missed in the past. Most of the finds came from a fairly small area and were deep. Ended up with 18 wheats, 2 George cents, 3 Rosies...

    First Ride on the CTX Train

    I took my CTX out this evening after work to a few parks that I and others have hunted hard with the E-Trac. I wanted to especially try a new "combined" mode that I created in the Exchange 2 software on my PC. I ran a wide open screen. This mode is like TTF on steroids. Having multiple tones for...
