    Lucky, lucky, lucky, no, it ain't gold, it's bronze.:rolleyes:

    I went detecting Saturday morning, with a slight breeze, cooler temperatures, humid ground, and my ACE 250. Hit two fields and found this great big bronze coin. It seems like all the goodies are in the areas where the grass is taller and thicker. I'm gonna go through the same fields next week...

    Does your Ace 250/150/350 pinch your nerve?

    Is it just me? Just askin'. Whenever I go md-ing out in the fields for a long time, I end up with a very sore left ankle. Just under the ankle bone on the left side, like tendinitis or a pinched nerve. It then hurts even more during the night time. I smothered the usual gel ointment, which does...

    Hunting Meteorites?

    I just saw a show about guys hunting for meteorites in open fields in central USA. They used a vehicle with what looked like multiple coils and a single reader that detected variations in the ground. Once they got a signal, they got out and searched with metal detectors and then they dug up some...

    Does anyone take out sand from under water?

    I'm keeping an eye out on an ancient dock made from huge cut rocks, which is now under sea level. I'm planning on moving away the stones and small boulders alongside it. Then I'll dig up the remaining gravel and dirt, and put it in a pail to check out on the shore. The dock is about 12 yards...

    Out after work, one coin, then it broke...:cry:

    It had to happen sooner or later... It happens to everyone... I broke the arm bracket... I had just pulled a coin dated 1862, then craaaaack... I glued it back together with a strong glue for plastic, but I don't think it'll hold. I also bought a piece of PVC conduit, which I'm going to cut to...

    1.5 hours after work, new area. (no woodticks):detecting:

    Got a silver coin, and a fancy trumpet mouthpiece. I don't know if the ring is gold, but it's heavy, and it ain't lead.

    Coca-Cola bottle worth saving.

    Today I found a Coke bottle (not old) that I brought home and am saving because it was made here in Trieste. The local Coke bottler has long since closed and this bottle is what I have now as a souvenir of the plant. Found it in the woods. Also found 2 boy scout medals from 1989 and 1990. I now...

    Ace 250 gives me sunburn!:biggrin:

    The other day, I looked at my left hand early in the morning and noticed it was half dark. Then it hit me. It was sunburn! Even though it's not warm enough to take my jacket off, the sun has already started to scorch my skin. My face and hands have a nice tan. Anyone else get sun-detector burn...

    aaaaaaaaaaauuuuuuuuuuuuuu! Ace hits on 5 cents.:clap:

    Ace 250 got me some gold yesterday. 10.85 grams of it. 18 "carrots" in a field. Signal was dead on 5 cents. Necklace and lion charm under tall grass and 3 inches of roots and dirt. I cut a circle around the target, pulled the plug out, but it was still stuck by what seemed a stubborn root. That...

    Okay. :thumbup: Here's da "coin"

    It's a bronze celtic money ring. Could be as old as 2600 years old. As you see, it's in XF condition. I found it submerged in mud in the same field I've been digging out coins for the past two weeks. I only noticed the surprise once I cleaned it. At first I thought it was just a washer or a...

    Signal deviation with Ace 250?:confused:

    I noticed during the last few hunts, certain times while using the pinpointer, that the target found was actually off center. Can stones vs earth cause signal deviation? The areas hunted were full of small limestones which were mixed with and covered by earth. The ground is extremely dry...

    Papal coin?

    Found it today in a field near a couple of old Austrian coins.

    Getting better all the time, but not for our trees...

    Loggers went and destroyed a portion of a local park here last Saturday... They were supposed to clear out the thorn bushes and smaller shrubs from the creek bed... They cut down all the 40+ year old trees... None of them were rotten... They rolled over the creek with tractors and trucks...

    ACE 250. Great in the woods.

    I'm finding the smallest bits of metal out in the woods, and the garbage tinfoil is easily spotted. You wouldn't believe how many pill blisters I've found so far... Also lots of rifle cartridges and old iron nails and hooks. There's alot of loot to find under those old rocks and next to larger...

    After a slow start in a frosted field...

    I also dug up two large weed cutters, fairly distant from each other, but I'll have to take another photo of them... The pic I took came out completely blurry...

    and here's a pin I found today.

    It's very hard and was found on a field full of Austrian WWI rifle cartridges.

    Well detecting?

    Here's one for the bucket: Did anyone here ever do some detecting in water wells, maybe with magnets or by video inspection? There are a few very old deep abandoned wells in my area, and was wondering if it was worth checking them out.
