    7am water dig with gold!

    Here's the short GoPro video clip of the live ring dig! https://youtu.be/GYu4f5qjEpo Got up early and headed out to a local beach to do a little water digging. The beach is full by 10am, because it's so hot around here. Apparently this beach has been under the radar because, I picked up over...

    Here's a short video clip of a water dig from yesterday.https://youtu.be/Ai4budP8yOc Had to get out in the water during the hot afternoon weather, and stumbled across this beautiful sterling silver cross. I looked for the chain, but to no avail. Never saw a marking like this one, CI925? Go get...

    Been on a dry spell lately, not getting out as much. Used the old DFX and found this sterling silver marked 4H ring. Found it in a turn of the century park. I hope to post a short go pro clip soon. Go get you some!

    Gold Class Ring Stinker

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WH1pIodISlg Wow, a class ring! My heart stopped! first target was a 1897 Indian head penny, and now this. This is the second class ring I've found. And it's gold, or is it? The more dirt I wipe off the worst it looks. It's badly broken on the back side of the...

    Schoolyard Gold

    Went out for a short hunt at an old school I've had luck at before, and just before I left I stumbled on this little beauty. Tests out at 14K. Been on a dry spell with gold lately, so this one is encouraging. Even though it's small. I'll post the video clip shortly. Go get you some!

    LEAD ON AN OLD MILITARY DUMP SITE

    Got a good lead from a ditch digger today. He told me he was digging up old bottles and brown bones. Needless to say he got my attention. When he said where he got them, I knew it was the old military dump area I've dug before. So off I went and braved the 90 degree heat. These are some of my...

    Schoolyard War Nickel

    It's been pretty slow lately, and so I hit the old school yard. I'm not sure why this is, but my first target is usually a good one so I dug this iffy signal. Turns out to be silver. 1943 S war nickel. Their always a welcomed find. Here's a short no frills video clip...

    1st 1916 Mercury Silver Dime! My heart stopped!

    Where are you from Daddyflea? We had a great spring. Lots of deep coins, gras was about as low as it goes and plugs were soft and easy to dig. Summer is upon us and the ground is getting harder here in the Idaho panhandle. The hunted out park groundskeeper supervisor just declared probe only...

    New trick, by accident!

    I was doing a dig with my V3i and finding plenty of 45/70 shells, like I usually do in this spot. When I stumbled across a trick I never knew about. The last time I used my V3i, I was using my 4X6" shooter coil and forgot to switch it back to the standard 10" stock coil in the expert menu. So...

    Love the turn of the century coins! Live video clip!

    I love to find old turn of the century coins, but especially when they're only 4" down. That's a one handed dig! Most of the coins I find in the hunted out parks are on the edges or in trashy areas where nobody is patient enough to dig. If I find one beauty like this one on a hunt, I'm happy as...

    1st 1916 Mercury Silver Dime! My heart stopped!

    Oops! I know a 65 quarter isn't silver, don't know what I was thinking. Yes Blind squirrel, the button was a looker. I love to find the old military buttons in the hunted out park, there was a lot of military activity on that ground. Always a welcomed find.

    1914D Wheat back Penny Find, with the DFX

    I don't know if I ever posted this, but back a couple years ago I was using my DFX about a block and a half away from my home. I was digging in the berm, (the berm is the best kept secret in metal detecting) between the curb and the sidewalk, when I found a small spill of turn of the century...

    1916 silver mercury dime video clip

    Here's a Polaroid of my first 1916 mercury silver dime. I was filming with my Go Pro Hero 3 silver, when I ran across this beauty. OK, I'll admit, it's not so beautiful. But I had you going. I did want you to go through the experience I had, when I saw that date pop out of the hole, and then see...

    Barber Silver 1897, with the V3i. Live Dig!

    Hibby; I found this program on this forum a while back, and read that it was a modified hipro program. I tried to load it but I got lost and never finished it. But I tried it the other day and have had two incredible hunts, since. Both hunts were in a hunted out park in areas I was in before...

    Barber Silver 1897, with the V3i. Live Dig!

    I've been playing with the "Magic" program on the V3i, and I cranked the gain up to 9 today and started finding old coins deep, in an area I've hit before. Everything was 6-9" deep. I found 7 wheats, 1x 1923 buffalo, a 1896 Indian head penny, a silver Shriners pin, a gold plated cuff link, and...
