    Boring...Boring...Boring

    After two hours of digging yesterday this is all I have to show you. I am still detecting the old missionary school and so far I have not found anything worth much. I have found a lot of red pennies, but no old coins so far other than the 1954 Jefferson nickel the other day. The ring is junk...

    Last few hunts using 6" DD Excelerator coil

    I got permission to hunt the church grounds where there had once been a missionary school years back. I was swinging my 6" DD Excelerator coil and it was definitely doing its job. 95% of the targets were down between 4" to 6" and a few were down about 8". And for the skeptics the deep targets...

    Nancy is a hard act to follow.....

    but finds are finds. These are my finds from the last two days.. I was able to hit a couple of new places and they seem to have never been hunted. My favorite find was the $1000 Peso coin. I just wish it was worth the same as it was in 1988. Oh Well. Thanks for looking and I am looking forward...

    Awesome super quick Minelab service dept.:clapping:

    Well, I finally sent my XT-70 to Minelab to address a problem of it just turning off by itself. I had stretched the battery springs and it appeared to help, but when it stated turning off again, I decided it was time to let Minelab solve the problem. I could not believe how fast Minelab was at...

    Better than staying home.

    The weather is beginning to warm and more folks are getting out of their homes after a rather long winter. I was able to make two hunts this week and dug some clad and a few trinkets but nothing really to crow about, but then its better than sitting at home dreaming about metal detecting. HH...

    Does one detector go deeper than another?

    Well I really can't say, but does it really matter all that much? I have a number of detectors but my favorites are my White's MXT and my Minelab Xterra 70. I have about all the coils avilable for the MXT and I have all the coils available for the XT-70 and have used them all at one time or...

    Gold and Diamonds

    It was around 30 degrees and windy when I first began swinging my MXT equipped with my favorite 6" DD Excelerator search coil. Although the hunt only lasted for about 45 minutes I did score a nice 14K gold and diamond ring. Although the hunt was short is was nice to get out of the house after...

    Diamonds and Gold

    Well this morning it was about 30 degrees and windy when I started swinging my MXT with my favorite 6" DD Excelerator searchcoil. This was my first hunt of 2008 and though it only lasted about 45 minutes I scored a very nice 14K Gold and Diamond ring. Even though the hunt was short it felt good...

    I would not have given you 50 cents for my chances of metal detecting anytime soon. As you can see from the photos of my truck "Swing time" is just around the corner. HH Dennis in Idaho

    Are you prepared to answer the questions the police

    and your insurance company (hopefully you have homeowners insurance) are going to ask you after your home (God forbid) has been burglarized? After the police have finished with their preliminary investigation they are going to ask you about what was taken. To save time here lets just say that...

    Yes they are a pain in the old back side,

    but we all dig them and if we don't we will miss some great finds, rings etc. But what do we do with them once we have dug them. Well I used to throw them away with all my other trash, that was until this summer. I read up on the Ronald McDonald house and found that they provide a place for a...

    Mr. Grant made my day....

    Metal detecting has been a little slow for the last few weeks. Its has been either to hot to hunt for very long or the skeeters get you, but today it was just right. We went out for about an hour and the detecting was good but the finding was bad, that is until Mr. Grant showed his face. Talk...

    My wife's new Accusound headphones

    JW sent my wife her new Accusound headphones. She had been complaining for some time about her headphones not having an adjustment for each ear. So the accusound headphones were to solve that problem. Well the day after she got them she left for Virginia to visit family and she has not had a...

    Does anyone recognize this religious medallion?

    I dug this at an old Catholic church today. It has letters on the candle that I would like to know what they stand for or the meaning. It is sterling silver. If you have any idea please let me know. Thanks, Dennis in Idaho

    Hunt before the Nascar Allstate 400

    I made a quick hunt because I wanted to watch the Nascar Allstate 400. I am still using the 8" DD Excelerator search coil on my MXT and I am enjoying it. I dug a little clad, including 2 gold dollars and some odds and ends. I also dug a very tarnished sterling silver religious medallion. It was...

    Today was a let down

    but I knew it would come, because days like the last two don't come all that often for me. I hit a couple of spots and a sand lot. The saw blade and razor blade came out of the tot lot. Makes you wonder what kind of games the kids are playing. The best find of the day was a 10K gold wedding...

    One more silver coin

    It was just getting light when I began swinging my detector. I was hunting a construction sight that I had done so well at yesterday. I wanted to beat the construction crew to the sight before they began their work , but I was disappointed to see how much soil had been removed since yesterday...
