    Tesoro Cibola :tesoro::usaflag: Wheat Penny 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20 Bingo:detecting:

    I got up early this morning to see if I could find some silver. As I was about to shut the garage door, I decided to get out of the car and go back in the house and rub my Genie for good luck. I haven't been rubbing my Genie lately to prove that there's nothing special about the Genie. I haven't...

    What's Your Wheat Penny to Silver Coin Ratio?

    Mine today was 13 wheat pennies to zero silver coins. I know if wheat pennies are there, there has to be silver coins there as well. Every time that I was about to call it a day, I'd find another wheat penny which made me search a little harder and longer. I'm in the right place. I guess I need...

    Tesoro Cibola :tesoro::usaflag: An Array Of Finds:detecting:

    I took my Cibola with the 8 inch doughnut coil out for a little action this morning. I was able to run full sensitivity and had the discrimination set where a foil cap just discriminates out. I felt like I was in a good location to find something really good. Maybe next time. I did manage to...

    Tesoro Golden µMax :tesoro::usaflag: My First 950 Silver

    I was dragging a little this morning from being out late last night watching a high school football game. I haven't gone detecting much in the last month or so because of the heat and dry hard ground. We just got plenty of rain and some cooler temperatures but I was in no hurry to get out in it...

    Adjustable Frequency On A Tesoro

    Is it possible to have an adjustable frequency on a Tesoro? I'm talking about one with a dial so you can adjust it to exactly where you want it. I was thinking about it today when I was at an area with some really super bad EMI. My Outlaw and Tejon won't work at that location, because their...

    I Got Lucky:smile:

    I drove an hour and half to watch a high school football game Friday night. The game location was a little over halfway to where a guy on Craigslist had a Tesoro Eldorado (µMax) for sale. I called him and he agreed to meet me at the school where the game was to be played. When he open his trunk...

    WTB - I'm Looking For A NEL Sharp Shooter Coil For My Tesoro µMax Detectors

    Shoot me PM if you have one you'd like to sell. tabman

    Newly Modded Deleon:smile:

    I'm going to try detecting with the Deleon without looking at the screen and go strictly by the audio tone. I really like the audio tone, because it's pleasant to listen to and carries a lot of info for my ears. I don't know what Tesoro did to the Deleon to make it such a deep detecting machine...

    There's Going To Be A Change To My Hole Shot Photos

    I just got this in the mail today. I sure hope it works out the way that I think it will, because I'm sure tired of replacing the tape and plastic wrap on my Pro Pointer just about every day when there's wet conditions. The bright color will make it easy to find if misplaced. tabman

    Tesoro Cibola :tesoro::usaflag: A Couple Of Silver War Nickels:detecting:

    I worked the grassy areas along the edges of some sidewalks today. I was wearing down, but there was no silver for the today's hunt, so I pushed on. I was so tired that I was even thinking about moving the discrimination up high enough to knock out those rotten stinking Lincolns, but I'm glad...

    Tesoro Cibola :tesoro::usaflag: Ducks And Indians But No Silver:detecting:

    I think my silver hole is drying up. I used the Cibola with the 9 x 8 coil today to try to squeeze out a little more depth. As long as I'm finding coins I know that there must be some silver coins still left to be found. I ended up finding a 1920 Wheat Penny, a couple of Indian Head Pennies...

    Tesoro Cibola :tesoro::usaflag: Zeroing In On Some Old Silver Coins:detecting:

    I went back to the ole house site this morning to see what the Cibola could do with the Sharpshooter Coil attached. I'm just amazed how quiet the Cibola ran considering all the nails and EMI. A lot quieter than the AT Pro, Deleon, and Outlaw at this particular site. I've pulled some really good...

    Tesoro Outlaw :tesoro::usaflag: Oh Yeah Big Ben :smile:

    I was at the site at daybreak and shortly thereafter I had my coil over a 1957 Franklin Half Dollar. I found it next to a service walk that went to what used to be a detached garage, but it either burned down or was torn down. The area around where the garage used be is a minefield of old rusty...

    AT Pro:garrett: A Little Verdi Green And Silver:detecting:

    I took the At Pro to a old house site today to see what I could find. I didn't find a whole lot, but had great time.:smile: There was a lot of EMI and nails to contend with. It wasn't all clear sailing. I had to cut back on the sensitivity, but the detector acted like it was tied in knots. I...

    Tesoro Deleon:tesoro::usaflag: Maiden Voyage:detecting:

    I took the Deleon out for a spin today to see how well it worked. I first decided if it's a good target or not by listening to the audio tone before looking at the screen. The Deleon would be a great detector even without the screen, but it's nice sometimes to have a second opinion.:smile: My...

    AT Pro :garrett: Some Due Silver:detecting:

    When I arrived at the site where I was going to detect this morning I found the grass was too thick and was heavy with due, so I decided to scout around for another place to swing my coil. I finally found a what appeared to be a great place to detect but the glass was heavy with due as well. I...

    Mr. Postman Will Be Delivering Me A Deleon Tomorrow

    The last couple of days I've been using a couple of other brands of detectors to find some silver coins. They're effective but they're not nearly as fun as a Tesoro detector. Not even close. I had a Deleon some time back and sold it to get a Cortes. I decided that I liked the Deleon better and...

    F75SE:fisher: Running Low Sensitity Works Just Fine

    I haven't had my F75SE out for awhile, so I thought I'd take it for spin today. The area that I have been detecting lately has some really bad EMI. I set the discrimination on 7, GB at 72, boost mode and 3H for the tones. I first started out with the sensitivity on 60 but moved it back to 50. It...

    AT Pro :garrett: A Little Misty Rain :detecting:

    I decided bring out the AT Pro this morning because it was misting rain. I didn't find much, I spent most of my time going back over some areas that I've hit pretty hard. Not much left there, so I moved down to another site to finish out the morning hunt and found a nice 1937 Mercury Dime. I was...

    Tesoro Cibola :tesoro::usaflag: Silver Plated

    I thought I had a really nice sterling silver spoon ring when I first got home, but it turns out be be silver plated (1847 Rogers Bros). I just couldn't get much going today. I found a couple more Buffalo Nickels, a 1933 World's Fair souvenir, a service button, a couple Wheat Pennies (1938...
