    Had some good years finding old class rings

    Been hunting the Chesapeake Bay since 2014 and one of the main gold rings I do find are Class rings, Most are dated from 1960 down. My favorites are from 1940 down. Details on the rings can be amazing. Few of my favorites

    Minelab Excalibur Pinpoint Modification

    You can do it either way, when I first started I hard wired them then found those switches/buttons don't last but a few years so I started putting/using a M-12 4 pin connector installed on the endcap. I even did a few where the cable came out of the endcap, held in place by a Heyco...

    Excalibur in the Water

    If the AQ is noisy try adjusting the delay up a couple clicks to 11 or 12, then back down after a few minutes. I rarely run delay below 10, if it gets noisy I adjust. Seems to work with both machines. And this is In semi rough brackish water. Im not sure if that will work on the slopes where the...

    BBS 800 Coil Compatibility

    Tip with epoxy, careful heating will break it down to where you can patiently pull it apart and remove. When I did repairs on Excaliburs and I got things in that were epoxied sealed.... the heat gun was my best friend. Recently, I got one of my AQ batteries I made several years ago back for...

    Unusual interaction while detecting today.

    I have a interesting story from 2017. Had a Honey Hole spot I was getting several gold rings near Annapolis. And wish I had my Go Pro for this one. So i'm hunting away and noticed some young adults on shore partying. About hour later I did my turn around and there was a young lady standing in...

    Unusual interaction while detecting today.

    Never had any the years I detected OC Md 2008 to 2014. Did have a few cute encounters with kids. One little girl 7 came up and asked what are you doing. I told her looking for coins and treasure, she walked away and came back about 5 minutes later and gave me some coins. Another a little boy the...

    I get to the beach with my AQ then this happens…

    Thanks TVR, so far no issues. I wonder if a plastic welder could fix the coil ears if they broke?

    I get to the beach with my AQ then this happens…

    You can fix that with some carbon fiber tube off amazon. .. Took out the bottom pin on the shaft leaving the top, seems to be the weak link area. Cut a 5.5 inch (14cm) piece of 25 x 23mm Carbon fiber, slid it over the weak area with about a 2mm space between the shaft and the carbon fiber...

    Metal Detector Rack

    Th Thanks TVR, a little two big .. Still have the same setup, and still thinking how to work this out. I need it to be moveable for some ramps are lefts n others are on the right. And the anchor area has to be open. Would like a bigger boat but this one I can unload myself at the ramp.

    APPLE I PHONES

    Funny story, when I got my new civic in 2022 I hid two airtags in my civic after removing the speakers and I did my boat and truck. 3 years late Im getting the low battery warnings from both in the civic. I remembered where did hide one but not the other. So make sure if you remove the speakers...

    What is the absolute best metal detector for metal detecting in freshwater? (lakes, creeks, and rivers)

    Lotta truth in that, been using a excalibur for 18 years now and a simple PI ... how much gold and silver I dig depends on my reconn-ing of my old and new spots to find those open areas in the water. And not to brag but this routine has found me way more gold and silver then any one in the...
