    VORTEX - A Coin Hunter's Dream. June Was My Best Month This Year!

    For my clad I run it at 25K freq., zero disc and normal swing speed. The 25K give much better ID then multi-freq. Focussing on best possible ID is paramount over depth and learning the pixels readings on the graph is a great addition not seen on the Garrett line before.

    My Vortex Got Ring #19 Today!

    I am blessed living in Edmonton. Metal detecting and a gold producing river flowing right through the downtown. Got to keep this body moving so it doesn't seize up.:ROFLMAO:

    Got Another ring Today (ring #17) As My Prospecting River Is Still On The High Side.

    "I use the shovel as a cane." Too funny, as I can relate to that. I use mine to help boost myself from kneeling to standing. It's definitely a good workout for fellows like us. :)

    My Vortex Got Ring #19 Today!

    I was going to go prospecting today, but the weather forecast was for rain this afternoon, so I opted to go metal detecting. I hit a sports-field and pulled out a nice copper and brass belt ring, about a size 8. Some of the coins were found earlier this week. Here's the gold I got the other...

    Got Another ring Today (ring #17) As My Prospecting River Is Still On The High Side.

    Yes, the Air Force Base is still in Namao, Langcaster Park. It's not active at the moment. The tower in inoperative at the moment. I remember working there as a civilian many years ago. I worked on the runways, as I had the proper radio license at the time. It was required as I had been flying...

    The Vortex Has Been A Ring Magnet Recently. I got Ring # 18 Today And A Silver "Tinker Bell" Charm

    Got out for a couple of hours today until the sun and heat pooped me out. I found ring #18 and .925 silver Tinker Bell charm. Tinker Bell is a fictional character from J. M. Barrie's 1904 play Peter Pan.

    Got Another ring Today (ring #17) As My Prospecting River Is Still On The High Side.

    This post is from the last couple of hunts. Those one and two dollar coins are HOT using the Vortex brand. Going to buy a gold coin or gold nugget at the end of this year with my $$$. Kind of a nice sterling silver lady's ring. And what looked like a real quartz crystal turned out to be a...

    Check This Out... Jan. to July 2025 Totals - So Far Pretty Well All Found With The Vortex - VX9

    Here are all my coins so far.....some in pretty bad shape due to rust. They will need a good cleaning in my rock tumbers at the end of the season. I did a quick break-down of my one and two dollar coins only. $179.00 I have have got to be pushing $300.00+ dollars so far this year. Twice in the...

    Got Ring #16 At A School Plus A Bunch Of Coins

    Hit some schools earlier recently. I got the ring where the studends eat their lunch. The Viper coil has pretty good separation characteristics to sort amongst the junk. Sometimes adding a different coil to a detector is like using a brabd new detector. Here's ring #16. All the stones are still...

    Pulled Out Ring #15 Today, Coins, Medallion, Token And Beautiful Brooch.

    Not a bad day at all with the Vortex VX9. I hit 2 schools. Most of my coins came from school #1 The ring I found today is an exact duplicate of a previous ring......what are the chances? Here's the brooch I dug. When it first came out of the ground, it was a rats-nest of grass and roots. I...

    GTI 2500

    The GTI 2500 is discontinued as are some of the older PI units. They are now old enough where getting parts is an issue. Oh well, as the saying goes...... "When one door closes, another new door opens."
