    The most expensive Ancient coin!

    Beautiful coin,my best condition ancient coin was this from the reign of the emperor hadrian.Years in the soil have worn it quite a bit due to plough action etc.

    Goodbye PI.

    You have me wrong sir.........there is no doubt that a pi can get deeper than a vlf,I think I said the latest vlfs,particularly multi frequency units, can "almost" get to pi depths.My point was how many great targets such as rings etc lie in that extra couple of inches,from my experience hardly...

    Goodbye PI.

    I'm no longer convinced tvr,looking back at the rings i've found with my pi in comparison to the ferous i've dug........equivalent to the world's entire stock of meccano.......and the non ferrous rubbish such as bits of ally also at silly depths,i wonder if a pi gives any advantage at all now...

    Goodbye PI.

    Muddy,im seriously thinking about it now to be fair,i know it performs great on the beach and is so light and as you rightly say you only live once......life is for living.😁😁 I've just bought an xterra pro as a lightweight back up to my sovereign gt.....coming next week so i may treat myself to...

    Goodbye PI.

    That's it,I'm saying goodbye to my pulse induction machine,took it out yesterday and enough is enough.......as I get older its becoming more like a medieval torture device than a pleasurable way to dig up treasure,I'm pretty sure pi stands for panting inducer after the amount of holes I dug...

    Equinox 900 on wet sand or in saltwater vs. others

    Wow,8 months and no reply.....just seen this so I will share my thoughts.I'm primarily a beach detectorist now since i moved back to the coast and I'm always interested in new models that come out claiming to be the next best thing at this type of detecting.I own two detectors for the beach,one...

    5 kHz ABYSS

    Make it waterproof and good on the wet sand at the beach and I'll have one.😁😁

    Beach Sensitivity knob on my Elite.

    The highest Pointon the white section is where the most stability is for sensitivity on the wet sand.......as you turn it anticlockwise the white area gets thinner showing more interference is likely as you set a higher sensitivity.This is an inficator more for beginners I believe as most who...

    MINELAB Manticore Unmasking And Recovery Performance

    What's the manti like compared to the gt........have you compared depth etc.

    Sovereign modification

    I'm looking into doing that myself.........there are some nice fully waterproof camera bags out there that you can waist/belt/ shoulder mount so I will problem go with one of those.

    Sovereign modification

    I've had a bit of success with the auto sensitivity to be fair (on really bad sites)but mainly i try to run as high a sensitivity as i can.I never managed to get a meter for mine,they are as rare as hens teeth it seems.Had the inline probe on my quattro but to be honest i dont use one now as i...

    Sovereign modification

    Hi Rick,yes I have seen a difference but not 3 inches as was stated in the original post.I hunt the beaches almost exclusively now and generally use a small thin ladies gold wedding band to test the depth of my detectors on the wet sand.I got about an inch and a half extra depth in all honesty...

    I'm Back!

    Good luck with your choice as there are so many new machines about and they all perform at about the same level in reality and will all get you the same number of finds if you learn them well........I'm sticking with my Sovereign gt until I see a machine comes out that will genuinely increase my...

    No harm in asking.......i would say more than likely.👍

    Civil war ammunition

    Not in this country bud,they were packed in wooden or cloth cases and lead of all sizes (and shapes)was used.

    Civil war ammunition

    Also consider case charges where many balls were packed into a wooden or cloth case and rammed down the barrel of a larger field gun such as a cannon.........that would spread shot all over the place much of it landing in the earth without hitting anything.

    Civil war ammunition

    Perhaps they were crap shots Gaz.I too live in the UK and have found hundreds of pistol and musket balls,many of which show no signs of hitting anything either and some very distorted after clearly hitting their target.I don't think pistols and muskets were massively accurate back in those days...

    Sovereign modification

    Hi Wandwaver, Sorry this is a bit late but i had the mod done by msr,i sent my machine in to have the threshold pot replaced and it came back with the report and a footnote saying that he had done the depth mod for me too.It hasn't made any difference to the tones or threshold or had any other...
