    Equinox finds Spanish treasure gold!

    Last week, my son and I went on another “Treasure Coast” trip, this time armed with our new Equinox 800’s. Our last trip to St. Augustine had me finding the only “old coin”, an 8 Reale, that I was sure was authentic, but my 21 yo son had the opposite opinion. For the last 6 months, I have been...

    Union hammer?

    My son Sam dug this yesterday at a Union camp. Just looking to those in the know if our appraisal was correct. Thanks!

    Whites Dual Field PI

    Got one coming from a forum member, looks to be in great shape. Just wanted to ask the folks that use them about settings. Are the factory pre-sets a "good" place to start, meaning enough depth and stability on south east coast beaches? Very little experience with a PI, but will be detecting the...

    ATX

    FYI, if anyone's looking for an ATX, NWI Detectors has a smoking deal on a "used" one, a week old, and never used! Plus the fact that Larry is a great guy to deal with...:)

    Grey Ghost or Minelab for waterproof headphones...?

    Just wanted a little input from users before I took the plunge. Neither are cheap, but which is preferred? Thanks in advance

    Tejon coils.....

    Does anyone have a good idea what the depth gain is when using the 10X12 DD vs. the stock coil. I have read it is a good bit, but others have said it is a depth wash, but you pick up the added coverage, thoughts? Thanks

    Tiger shark help...

    Have one coming for my son, and wanted advice on saltwater beach detecting. I have been told waves will make the TS erratic, but we plan on just doing the wet sand (low tide?) Our main use will be fresh water, but wanted advice on dealing with the salt (Maine/New hampshire) Any fresh water...

    Saltwater beach help....

    Going to be using the CTX at the beach for the first time ( Maine/New Hampshire salt water). Just wanted to get opinions on the "best" settings for dry and wet sand. Don't have any intention of submerging the detector, just wanted to go out on the wet sand at low tide, and check out the dry...

    Is this voter suppression.....

    because here are four native American votes that Elizabeth Warren is not getting in November. I'm going to keep them in a jar until after the election :rofl: Coin spill, all about 5 inches, 1900,1904.1906 and 1907. Loving the CTX 3030!

    Flowing hair large cent....kind of

    Took to a field today adjacent to where Revolutionary war soldiers camped out. The area is now a recreation area, and I stayed away from the soccer/ball fields, and kept to near the mosquito infested wetlands. Near the woods, and near the property line of the nearest home, the area had been used...

    Another trip to an old site

    This site was a tannery in about 1700/1710. Over the past few years, we have found dozens of buttons (some really good ones!), a few 1730-1780's coins and a bunch of shattered, VERY large cast iron pots. Of course there are tons of square nails, and other bits of 300 year old metal bits. Today...

    At the risk of being re-named " The Junk Man"....

    Just a quick post that demonstrates the amazing " see through" capability of the CTX 3030. Went back to a trashy 1780 house site that yielded little on many trips with the E Trac, the area is small, about 20x30. Today I got solid 12-35 from multiple directions, along with iron readings in...

    When a common find is a GREAT find

    First of all, I AM NOT the most experienced guy here, I didn't bring a camera, nor do I have witness's to the story I'm about to tell................... First trip out with the CTX today, 4.5 hours. This site has been hunted by both myself and my son (E-Trac,XT 705) to death. It was the site of...

    Been a long time coming, colonial silver....... 1/2 Reale (?)

    Have not been out in months, just too many non-fun things to take care of....... Got one final chance to go over a 1710 church site. A few buttons, some whatizit copper bits, and then a good, but jumpy signal at the bottom of the depth meter. It read a 10-32/34, was down about 8, maybe 10...

    Detecting in Warren,Ma................

    I saw a fellow E Trac owner detecting on Main street in Warren,Ma tonight. Momma was driving, and in a rush as always :) If you are on the forum, you should be, send me a PM, I live the next town over.

    ET is back home, found a new site under my nose.....

    Got the E Trac back home in short order from Minelab service (thanks guys!) There is an old farm site within a half mile of my house, I can actually see the fields from my deck. The oldest Beers map that I can find for my area has the farm there in 1854, but I think it was there a good while...

    Crap!

    Here it is the start of our short season in New England, and the E Trac goes kaput! My quick mask and pinpoint buttons are unresponsive. Did a soft reset,nothing. Went to do a hard reset and it wouldn't let me! The cursor (using the UP arrow) would not go up to confirm (YES) the reset. Has...
