    Equinox and nickels....

    I dug one today at 6 1/2 inches in a ball field and it rang up a solid 13 and every 3 swings or so it would hit 12.

    Silver and other oddities

    Haven’t posted in a bit. Been hitting my local lake park about everyday or so the last week till the rain came. Got another 4 silvers and 20 wheats out of a lake park that has been absolutely destroyed over the years. Also got an Indian and a 1909 VDB wheat as well the last week or 2. Went out...

    Can someone explain the Fe and Fe2 settings for me.

    The day that the nox and I really got along for the first time was out at my local lake park. Setting were park 1 with 5 tones sensitivity at 22 and a ground balance of around 15 and fe2 of about 7. First hole I dug has 3 huge rusty nails in it but when I first swung the hole I could hear that...

    More sterling and some wheats

    Thank you! Hitting a real nice place Sunday. Will most likely see a post then as well! 1882 house that sits on 4 acres and is untouched and the same as it was all those years ago. Hoping for some nice finds!

    More sterling and some wheats

    Went back to a 1870’s farmhouse dad and I have hit before. Not much going on the first hour. Dad got a 1937 wheat. Then in the back yard I get a deep 30 signal. Pop the plug and about 5 inches down a huge silver thing comes rolling out. Another sterling ring with a large S on it. Cool! Minutes...

    Gold, silver, sterling, old wheats and Indians!

    He got me into the hobby when I was like 9 and I am 21 now. We have spent thousands of hours swinging the coils together over the last 12 years. Just getting back into it heavily like the old days. Going out everyday and working on permissions daily. You get out what you put in with this hobby...

    Gold, silver, sterling, old wheats and Indians!

    Yeah the brooch is super cool! So weird how a place can go from nothing to 4 silvers in a matter of minutes.

    Gold, silver, sterling, old wheats and Indians!

    Have had a pretty good last 2 days. Stopped by an old school that has been hunted to death. Found 4 wheat pennies and dad found an Indian about 10 1/2 inches down or so. Couldn’t believe when a coin came out of the hole. Went to a new 1870’s permission I got yesterday today and it started off...

    Deep silvers and wheats

    I would say go for it. Dad and I had decent detectors and our hunted out spots have turned up some real nice coins that we missed. We have worked 5 spots that we have pounded before and out of those 5 spots we have pulled 8 silvers 2 gold rings and about 25 wheat pennies. The nox is real hot on...

    Deep silvers and wheats

    Have about 40 hours with the nox 800 now and all I can say is wow. My dad was kind of skeptical at first about it. Until I went out to the lake and came home with 3 silvers out of an area that has been hunted for 40 years. All were over 7 inches deep. One Roosevelt had 3 nails in the hole. Now...

    BIG SILVER and Civil war relics in Illinois!

    Thank you! Never ever thought that I would find a silver dollar!

    BIG SILVER and Civil war relics in Illinois!

    Nope it’s been getting plowed over for a long time in the field. Gives it some nice character of the rough life it’s had.

    BIG SILVER and Civil war relics in Illinois!

    Well today it was supposed to rain and be windy here in central Illinois. Woke up and it was sunny and decent outside. Dad and I the night before found a new house in a field we have permission to. Long story short I fired up my Equinox and dad and I headed out. We walked around for about 1 hour...

    Loving the Nox 800 and a few questions

    Yep my dad and I have found some pretty amazing stuff with our Tesoros over the years. I just felt like updating and my research showed that the Equinox is one of the best out there right now. I have been able to work out most kinks that I have had already and I have a pretty nice set up that...

    Loving the Nox 800 and a few questions

    Thank you for the videos. The coin one is what I have it set up under now. I have moved it into the multi frequency. Thank you for the comment as well.

    Loving the Nox 800 and a few questions

    Today I spent another 5 hours out with it and it really spoke to me today. Bumped my sensitivity up to 18 and noise cancelled and ground balanced with the multi frequency and the coins really popped out today. Nothing old but still finding stuff. Thanks for all the help and pointers. I really...

    Loving the Nox 800 and a few questions

    Tried turning it up past 18 today and it starts to really chirp and chatter so I have settled right at 16 for the sensitivity. Got it on park 1 with 5 tones. Running it on multi frequency. I noticed I get a lot more little chirps and blurps when on multi compared to a single frequency as well.

    Loving the Nox 800 and a few questions

    Yes the soil here is so nice to dig in. Especially after a decent rain. I will set it up tomorrow on multi frequency and go over the yard again. I appreciate you helping a Minelab noobie here! Really hoping to find my first silver with it here in the first week or so! Thanks for your help and tips!

    Loving the Nox 800 and a few questions

    I agree I think I am messing with too much way too early. Thanks for your comment and happy hunting and stay safe out there.
