    A few more keepers today

    Today I returned to the property where I had found the barber quarter a few weeks ago. The snow is mostly melted and the ground was diggable in most places. My buddy and I gridded the area pretty slowly with not much to show. I dug zero coins in a few hours time and my buddy dug 2 or 3 clad. I...

    Finally got one near the top of my wish list

    It's an odd coin to have near the top of your "wish list" of finds, but it's there because I have never dug a barber quarter..until now. Barber dimes are a fairly common find here. Seated dimes and quarters also pop up from time to time. But the barber quarter has eluded me. I found this one at...

    10x12 SEF vs. X-12

    I hate to beat a dead horse but I tend to do this when its starts to get cold and I can't get out to hunt. I just finished a full season with the Sunray X-12 coil and couldn't be happier with it. It's lighter than my stock Exp II coil and gets some awesome depth and great coverage while handling...

    10K Gold mens wedding band

    I don't post finds very often but sgoss66 inspires me. Last Sunday I found my first gold ring of 2011. Dozens and dozens of pulltabs and a handful of nickels turned into a gold ring, which reminds me why I waste my time digging those signals.:smile: JJ

    Silver

    Hello, i am new to tesoro's though i have read about them for years and nearly purchased a few different models on a few occasions. My 8 year old daughter was really showing interest in MD'ing towards the end of this last season and I think it may be about time to get her hunting next season...

    Finds from last couple of hunts

    Havent posted in a while but have had a little more time to hunt lately. Here are some finds from the last few hunts this week. I wanted to get my fix before winter sets in. The gun is an older Nichols Detective 250 cap gun (works). The token brought multiple offers while I was trying to ID it...

    Team ATC

    A sign my new spot may have been visited by.........the others :biggrin: Old park has given up a few wheaties already so I think there may be more. I checked them out on Youtube, very entertaining hunters! I sent them an email asking about the token and they said they bury them at places...

    Not much diggins', not real old, but its silver.

    I was excited to get out this morning and try some new settings. (Thanks LaDigger!) The first place I went was an old ball field across from a park. Went back to check it out today and apparently they built a new fire station right on top of the old ball field.:shrug: The old park across the...

    coin pattern vs. iron mask (exp II)

    I'm still fairly new to using the Exp II and have thoroughly read the manual and Andys Etrac/Exp book but cannot find any info on hunting in iron mask mode vs. the basic coin pattern. I have really only used the coin pattern since I got the machine. I mainly coin hunt. I have yet to dig a piece...

    They left a few....

    I planned to visit four small nearby towns that I have never hunted this AM. The first town on the trip has a small park that two of my buddies hunted a couple days ago and reported finding some older stuff. Soooo..... I thought i better check it out myself. :biggrin: It didn't take long to...

    nearly skunked, then Overland Whippet from the deep!

    Drove down to a small outta the way park in a small old town this AM. It was a little obvious that this park has been detected before as signals were very few and far between. Only had time to dig three targets before the heavy rain started, first being a 52' wheatie, then a small metal button...

    First and Second hunt with Exp. II

    I received my (new to me) explorer II w/ 1050 coil in the mail a few days ago. This is the first Minelab I have owned. I have spent a good amount of time downloading and reading the manual and reading Andy's Etrac/Exp book. The Etrac/Exp. emulators really helped familiarize as well as all the...

    Dads day hunt

    Haven't posted in a while, been busy with work and other stuff and not much time to hunt, but hopefully I can make more time to hunt soon. I was starting to feel like a deadbeat lurker so I thought I would throw this up there. Stopped out to see ol' dad on fathers day. He lives in an old...

    Tearing it up with my buddy IaSoldier today

    Had a good day out hunting with my buddy IaSoldier (Terry). Luckily he had a connection who owns a +100 plus year old farm house surrounded by virgin soil. There were not enough hours in the day today but a return trip is a given. No silver for me today but still the best day i've had in quite a...

    Some guys have all the luck......

    Just not me!...lol. My hunting buddy Eric "the treasure phenom" was on a leisurely stroll downtown the other day. One of the main streets through downtown is being torn up to redo some duct work below and the worksite is about 3 blocks long. When demolition first began, one of the first things...
