    Lone Star Detector

    The local pawn shop has a used BH Lone Star in the rack. They are asking $70 for it. I checked Fee-Bay completed sales and they sell for $80 to $100 range in used condition. If it works as it should do you think $60 is a good offer or should I just pony up the $70 and be happy? So far I have...

    Garrett Money Hunter

    Hi All, I recently bought a Garrett Money Hunter from a pawn shop, put new batteries (4-9v) in and went to the park playground to have some fun. The small Groundhog coil was the right size for getting around the swings and slide. Of course it found lots of pop tops and can slaw and a little...

    Garrett Ultra GTA 500 Detector

    Does anyone have some knowledge or experience with this detector that they could share? One is listed for sale in the local Shopper magazine for $175 - "in good condition" it says. Surely it's better than a Bounty Muffler? The only information that I have been able to find was an article from...

    My Front Yard Still Produces the Best Finds!

    I found this trade token last night in the front yard. It was near the location of an old soft maple stump I had ground out last year. It's the same diameter as a penny but thin as a dime. One side says: "Redeemable for United States Money 1/4 cent". The other side says: Jacksonville, ILL...

    More From The Tot Lot

    The wife suggested we go for a ride to the next town over from us to the park down by the river and swing the tot lot since it's easy digging sand. Pulled a little over $5 in clad change, mostly quarters and dimes. I x'ed the targets and she used the TinyTec Pinpointer to find it. Nothing over...

    Help! What Is This?

    The body looks like brass or bronze with some iron pins or rivets. I was relic hunting in a wheat field earlier this spring, near an old farm house that's falling down. Planning to go back once the wheat stubble is mowed down. Thought I would ask the experts what it might be. HH, twalton

    1901 Canadian Cent

    Found this Canadian 1901 cent with my Pioneer 202 while coin shooting around the local high school. It was about 7" deep but gave a good strong signal. Cut a 3" plug then dug slowly, probing with my TinyTec pin pointer trying to not damage what I hoped was a class ring. The school was built in...

    Is the BH 505 Same as a Sharp Shooter II

    I'm looking at buying a used BH Pioneer 505. The closest match that I can find is the Sharp Shooter II. Am I right on this match or off by a mile? Anybody swing a 505, likes / dislikes? Any help greatly appreciated. HH, twalton

    BH Coils

    Are there other brands of coils that use the same type connector as a BH? Has anyone tried another brand with success? Do they detect a deeper signal? Come on people, educate me! HH, twalton

    1st Tot Lot Hunt

    School's out so thought I would swing over the playground. Kept this spot in the back of mind for a long time waiting for an evening when no kids or mommies w/kids were there. Back in the day the area was all dirt but in the last ten years it was covered up with wood chips then a layer of tire...

    County Fairgrounds Hunt

    Haven't been to the county fairgrounds since March so had about an hour to swing over it before suppertime. Made three passes down the carnival midway area (it's empty pasture right now) and had a little luck. Found $1.11 in clad change(45 cents in one hole), two toy cars, a heavy metal ring and...

    Who uses a pinpointer and what brand do you like?

    Thinking it's about time to get a pinpointer. I can see the advantages but would like to hear some opinions, good and bad. Also what is your favorite brand and why. Who has the best deals, should I buy new or used? Thanks. HH, twalton :help: Tracker IV...

    Wet Ground

    Did a little coin shooting over lunch the hour today with my Pioneer 202. The ground is extremely saturated, over 6" of rain since Monday. Set the sens at 12 and the disc at 11. Every step I take squished water to the top. Had several strong repeating signals for nickels, all turned out to be...
