    A Few Things That Helped Me With the Legend

    I mostly detect trashy parks and schools and the only thing that determines sweep speed is the time it takes to hear the targets clearly. If you're not hearing the targets you are missing them. A good target may only be peep but you have to take the time to go if necessary and work the signal...

    Silver is Going Crazy!!

    The idea that we will return to a gold backed dollar is total nonsense and a dollar was actually made of .775 ounces of silver at a time when the supply was up to the demand. The gubmint isn't about to let the dollar be backed by anything it does not have complete control over , look at the...

    Silver is Going Crazy!!

    The dollar is losing value to Au/Ag but not so much to other items , at least at this point. The FED will maintain a little inflation regardless because of this idiocy that it is required for growth but as long as it doesn't eat into a persons real buying power its tolerable. Look at things as...

    Silver is Going Crazy!!

    David vs Goliath ,,, good analogy and gilmore proves people still listen to CNN and MSN even though their credibility has fallen much more than the dollar:D

    Silver is Going Crazy!!

    47x right now so if you can buy or sell for 90 to 93% of that you're doing good. Expect serious upside resistance at 75 if it gets there.

    Why your poor and always will be

    The FED has inflated away 96% of the dollars purchasing power since it's implementation in 1913

    Silver is Going Crazy!!

    I sold 100 ozs this week for mad money , don't remember what I paid for those particular rounds but I don't think it was part of the few ounces bought back in 2011 when I bought some at 30 because "it couldn't go any lower"; that was on the way down to 12. Silver will correct and correct...

    Silver is Going Crazy!!

    My understanding is that silver is 19 times more plentiful in the natural state than gold yet people often follow the 50/80 ratio for trading. Most silver jewelry is too light to amount to much , I have trays of silver rings , pendants , chains , ear rings and doodads that when all combined...

    Is calabash testing the new xp icon ?

    Both of them are trying to emulate Keith Southern who is a true credit to the detecting industry. Both fall woefully short. What do you expect when one blocks comments on his video channel while blocking out the bottom half of the screen with his belly and the other constantly plagiarizes test...

    Thomas Dankowski info ??

    I follower Tom's forum for a number of years and even bought a couple of detectors he had "tuned". There was occasionally some good info but the format was ancient with lots of technical difficulties. After the forum software was modernized it just seemed to fade away with too many obnoxious ...

    Thinking about getting a Legend..

    etrac and CTX fan here but using the Legend since its introduction when the others quit. It doesn't have the Minelab tones but has its own language and I have never felt like I have given up any depth or disc. Certainly more ergonomic and you can afford the extra coils , I like the 8 x 12 for...

    Silver at $50 Gold at $4000

    Pigs get fat , hogs get slaughtered! Find local buyers not big establishments to sell to and , for gods sake , sell in quantities small enough to not generate a paper trail unless you can somehow prove you have a high cost basis.

    Silver at $50 Gold at $4000

    The higher "spot" goes the lower the percentage of that you will receive when you decide to sell. The profit margin for buyers of your loot is pretty thin when you consider the downside risk they are confronting. They will rightfully be hesitant to cash out large holdings when staring down the...

    Silver at $50 Gold at $4000

    Spot is not , never has been and never will be. COMEX is a con game , continuous fraud , ignore it since it buys and sells fictitious contracts. Spot will never be the same until markets have closed and even then will constantly vary since it is traded world wide on different markets basically...

    Low level lake = big silver, seated

    Great finds!! Consider yourself lucky , most lakes here are State park areas and detecting is prohibited. You can run your 4-wheelers , motorcycles and dune buggies up and down the beach but you can't detect. More blue state logic at work!!!

    Cz3d Enhanced Mode...

    I ran a Tom tuned CZ3d for a bit but the ergonomics and battery usage relegated it to the sale barn. Not a bad detector but never found anything exceptional with it but can't say I logged as many hours on it as I did with others.

    Checking for Real or fake ?

    Get an acid test kit , cheap on ebay and worth having behind the seat. 750 is 18k and will certainly pay for the kit:)

    Gold testing expert needed

    Tells me you didn't get a very good test scratch. If plated you could get a good test and then have scratches from the base material underneath that dissolve. I don't just leave a "dot"when I test something but make a mark 1/4" wide and 1/2" long to really know. If it's gold you will hardly be...
