    1907 IH w/ the V

    Took the V out today to another scraped lot that I've pounded to death. First dig was the IH. Came in at nickel range around 4" on disc. dial and was broken. Everything in this lot that repeats gets dug. The Jeff is a 1940. Nothing special about the little round rivet back, but it was...

    Took V out for first time

    The snow is melting and temp got up in upper 30's so I took my new V out for the first time. The manual ground balance is new to me, but I'm sure it will become second nature the more I use. I hunted a lot that I've pounded with two other detectors. It's full of nails and iron so I usually...

    Finally bought a V

    After mulling around for awhile having a deal fall thru on another TID, I bought a V this morning. It was between the golden Umax and the V, but I think I went the right way. I liked the 4 tone feature of the golden, but after using a borrowed Cibola, didn't think I could go wrong with the V...

    DD coil for 250

    Didn't know if anyone has seen this yet, but it caught my eye. The owner says it's a sunray prototype coil. If for some reason my link doesn't work, it's a dd coil for the 250. Good hunting, Eric...

    Went to church today.

    Hey everyone, I received permission today to hunt a church in here in town. The pastor said it's been a church since the 30's, but it's in one of the first neighborhoods here in town, so I'm pretty optomistic about it. The ring says STERLING on the inside and the wheat is a 1941. The padlock...

    Coil and Pinpoint Question for Bill or John

    I have the oppurtunity to acquire a 5 x 10 scorcher coil and was wanting to know if it would classify as a DD or a eliptical coil. Does it pinpoint like a DD coil or like the ace eliptical coil? I haven't heard much about using one, but heard one guy say he loved his for coinshooting. Any...

    Ace sniper coil

    Hey everyone, I got my sniper coil a few weeks ago and finally got a chance to get out and use it today. I had it out a few hours last week and dug some clad coins so today I took it to an older house here in town and worked the trashy parts of the yard where I haven't spent much time. The...

    Great Service

    I have heard several on this site remark about the great service Garrett puts behind all their machines and got a chance to find out for myself this week. I put the yellow one on the UPS truck monday afternoon to get the weak pinpoint fixed. Couldn't have been more surprised than I was when it...

    Doe Wah Jack

    Hello everyone, The weather here has continued to be nice and mild, so I made it out this morning. This little pin came out of the backyard of an old vacant lot here in town. I expected a penny to pop out, but was pleasantly surprised when Jack popped out of the ground. I think the pin was...

    1940S Walking Liberty

    Hey everybody, I went back to the old church I hit last week and bounced around it for a few more hours this morning. This is my first silver half. For a pounded church, I was REALLY surprised to dig this. I also got 4 more wheats, 2 memorials, and the usual trash. The ring is a baby's ring...

    First Barber

    Hey everyone, Made it out this morning to an older house here in town and got my first barber. I was pretty surprised when it popped out. My 1500 made that sweet belltone and was B sized at 6". I was hoping on a silver Washington, so this made it that much better. Got 4 wheats also and a...

    Four Wheats and a Military Button (long)

    Hello everyone, Made it back to the old house where I dug the tootsie car Tuesday nite and worked it for about 2 hours this morning. A couple memorials and some trash is all. When I was getting ready to leave, an older gentleman pulled up and asked if I'd had any luck. I told him how I did...

    Tootsie Car

    There's an older house (late 1800's) here in town that I've had my eye on for a while. Noticed a for sale sign hanging on the front door a couple days ago, so I contacted the owner and he gave me his permission to hunt the house. He said he was sure I wouldn't find anything but to go ahead...

    1921 French Coin

    Got my first foreign coin today. Was the last thing I expected to come out of Kansas dirt. Also got part of a pocked watch, a 1929 Wheat that was laying on top of the ground, and another wheat that is soaking. All of these came from the lot that gave up the 1939 Merc last weekend. I slowed...

    garrett detector

    Not my intention to start gossip or rumor, but was wondering if anything is in the works for a new Garrett machine. With the other 3 manufacturers introducing new models, was wondering what Garrett had in mind to offer. Hope life's good, Eric

    1939 Mercury Dime

    It got up to about 40 today with lots of sunshine so I got out this afternoon. There's a vacant lot where a house was demolished a couple years ago that I drive by everyday and I called the owner and he said I was welcome to hunt it. Most people are pretty cool about that. You can see the red...

    Last day

    Not to rub it in to my fellow Garrett users up north, but today the weatherman is calling for 60 degrees again, so I'll get one more hunt in. The rain, snow, and cold weather are moving in tonite though so we'll all be in the same boat. Got three more wheats yesterday and dug my deepest coin...

    Four Wheat Cents

    Hope everyone had a good Thanksgiving. Got out for a few hours today and tried to work off some pie and bird. Dug a few keys, some clad, and 4 wheats out of a front yard here in town. The wheats are 1916, 1917, 1929D, and 1941. Got up to almost 50 degrees today, so was a great day. Hope...

    Ironing my coins

    Made it back to the house where I dug the token last weekend and made it thru most of the front yard. Not a real trashy yard, but there was a few places where someone had hit a can with a lawnmower, and that wasn't much fun, but still popped a few keepers. The iron was a few feet from the...

    Kohler and Campbell Piano Token

    Had a couple of hours of daylight left today so I went to an old vacant house here in town. The lady who owns it told me it has been here forever and that her Grandma lived in it. Got a 56' Wheat,65'Rosy,67'Rosy, and 2 memorials. Also got my first token. I looked the company up and they were...
