    Question for any experimented TH,

    I have noticed that most detectors do discriminate but just 2 to 3 inches in the ground. Is this normal or am I wrong. I recently went w/ my ace 250 to an old hacienda and I got several good finds but I noticed that I was picking up tin bottle screwcaps and when they were on plain sight my...

    Question about long range locators?

    Is it true that they work? There are others that I recently read on a magazine that are called molecular frequency or something like that. They swear on those ads that you can find emeralds, diamonds, gold and silver up to half a mile away.They even detect a single coin 3 feet down. If someone...

    4th day vacs Cd. Victoria finds, Mexico

    Have you ever been pressured by family members to do something you don't want to do? I was most of the time on my vacs by myself on my own car metal detecting but this time my uncle came to pick me up to go to an old hacienda that I had gone before (last year). He told me that at the same time...

    3rd day vacs Don Benito's Hacienda Cd. Victoria Mx

    3rd day of my vacs: I went to this other old hacienda where last year I found a 1906 barber dime. This hacienda now belongs to an 89 years old named Don Benito. He had lived all his life here in these mountains and he knows beautifull places and caves where revolutionaries used to hide guns and...

    Oldest coin and best coin found on 2nd day of my vacs

    The 2nd day I went to pick up my cousin because I did not want to be by myself up in the mountains, but on the way there my cousin told me about a place that looks really old and that there is an old hacienda. We got there and I got a little bit embarrased because there were houses around the...

    Tesoro Compadre w/ 8 inch brown search coil is a thumbs up!

    Went yesterday to try my new 8 inch brown search coil on the compadre and I am amazed how it performed. I found seven coins in less than 30 minutes in a place where I had suppossedly dig out everything in all metal mode. I even found a nickel all covered with green patina which is hard to find...

    1st day on the mountains Cd. Victoria, Mexico

    1st day out 5 days of vacations: I went to an old real camino, where I had found before a 1910 cent and a gold molar. This old real camino used to connect Cd. Victoria to Tula and it was closed in the 1950's and a new road was builded up. This old camino road is up in the mountains and is hard...

    Best Beach Water Detector?

    I'm thinking on buying a submersible water detector later on. Which one would you all recommend? These are the qualifications: submersible, good in black sand at the beach and if possible good also in dry land for example beach combing. Any responses will be appreciated and thanks for your replies.

    Metal Detecting Irony

    It is so weird that my oldest find from Mexico came from the U.S. (5 big centavos coin from 1945) and my oldest find from the U.S. was found in Mexico (Barber Dime dated 1906).

    Please help on Compadre swapping

    What is it that I need to do in order to swap coils in Compadre. The connector is already installed but I don't have the extra coil. I don't want to buy an extra coil if it is not going to work since lately I have been dead broke. I don't have any friends with metal detectors close to my area...

    Old camino real finds from Cd. Victoria, Mexico.

    I found all these items on a camino real, where there is a caved- in mountain, in ciudad Victoria Mexico. There are two cartridges dated 1907 and 1913. The cent from MX is 1910 and the rock that is together in the photo with the cent I thought was a bullet and saved it. My uncle, who is a...

    Compadre with connector already done.

    Thank you for your advice but I have already put the connector on the Compadre. I'm stubborn and since I got it for free I decided to risk it. It is working perfectly but I was just wondering if the 8 inch coil would fit whitout doing any adjustments. I will send the picture next time of it...

    I just realized that you guys think I 'm a woman or "gay"

    The username belongs to my wife and I just realized that you were thinking I was a woman. Here is a picture of myself, my wife and my baby to clarify this situation. This is the first time that I'm in a forum and I 'm not computer knowledgeable like my wife. Sorry for being so retarded.

    I'm risking my compadre. (Please help)

    I am on the verge of up-grading (swapping coils) in my compadre. I found an ad on the internet where it shows how to do it. Whould you all agree that this will work. The compadre works really fine but I am still in doubt about how well it will perform with a 9 X 8 coil. What would you all...

    Old Mexican (Ciudad Victoria) finds

    I found all these relics in an old hacienda up in the mountains from Ciudad Victoria, Mexico. The weird thing about this trip is that I found a barber dime 1906 in a good state in the Sierra Madre from Mexico. This place, where I found the coin, is in the middle of nowhere and far away from...

    illegal land (favorite spot)

    Just to let you know that my favorite area for metal detecting is the border between the U.S. and Mexico.(Which is the backyard of my house). I got the longest swimming pool of the world. Illegal land is called because of the so many illegals from latin america. I have found hundreds of coins...
