    May 21/22 Hunt

    I spent all last year using mostly Magics setting on the Coin mode with 5.3. I had great success finding silver and gold. This past week I decided to try the Hi-Pro, and went to some of the same parks I have previously hunted. I was using the 5.3 and Magics setting, this time I bumped up the RX...

    Coin Cleaning

    Hi All, Find a V-Nickel this morning! I can barely make out the date, I think it's a 1897 or 87. Is there a way to clean the coin without doing any more damage? March has been good to me (7 Silvers and a V), I will post a picture after I finish detecting this weekend. Good luck. Ron in...

    January Finds

    believe it or not, but I was able to get 4 hours of detecting in early January in upstate New York. We had a few days of low 40's temp's and the snow had just about melted away. I went to a park that I usually hunt once a week because of its large size. I was using my 5.3 coil on Magic's...

    More Gold

    Over the weekend I had a few hours to detect before dark, so I hit the local middle school that has been good for Merc's, Wheaties, and Rings. I has my 5.3 and using Magic's settings. At first I was just searching for silver hits but was having no luck. After a while I started digging anything...

    My Trigger Switch Broke Off, Help

    Has anyone had this happen to them? Is it fixable at home or do I need to send it back to my retailer?

    Silver and Gold

    I hit the local school and local park for a little this past weekend. The ground is hard and we could use a little rain in upstate NY right now. The 1957 dime was from a new spot a started detecting on Sunday. I also found 5 Wheaties from 1936-1944. The funny thing is that I found no clad, this...

    First Gold Ring This Year

    My son wanted to go out detecting with me for a little bit after dinner. We went to a near by school that I've been hunting all year hoping for a Silver Merc to add to his collection. We were finding alot of clad a few inches down using the stock Coin settings. I decided to dig anything that hit...

    Last Weeks Finds

    The 1939D Merc and the Silver Ring are from the Gun Powder Mill that I found last weekend. The soil in the section that I hunted was pretty boggy, the dime as almost completely black and the .925 ring I cleaned up a little. The ring says .925 on one end and E-M on the other. I'm not to sure what...

I just started hunting this park and I have a lot of ground to cover, so these are my first finds from the first picnic area I hunted. I used the stock setting RX at 7, using the 5.3 coil,( many pull tabs). This is...

    First Big Silver

    I went to a local middle school in Macedon New York to give one of the grass fields a try. I had on the stock coil with the stock settings hoping to find a few coins to give me an idea of what years and depths are around the area. This was my first time at the school and I was not to sure if any...

    June Dime Finds

    I've been pounding the sane school for the past two months and each time I think I cant find any more, I find a area of Silver or Wheaties. I've been using the DD stock coil because the area is not to trashy even though the 5.3 coil works better for me in taller grass if it has not been cut in a...

    Hello all, this past weekend I was hunting a trashy park in upstate NY, and I was able to pull a 1932 Wheatie and a 1951 Rosie, also about 50 or so pull tabs (hoping for a ring). I was using the stock setting on coin mode with the RX 7 and Disc. 75. This was the second time using my new 5.3 coil...

    Advice, Surveillance Interference

    Hello all, I received permission to coin hunt around an old estate built in 1840-1850, and it is surrounded by live wire security fences among other surveillance devices. I started hunting in coin search and deep silver and I was chirping on almost every swing. I was receiving hits that were...

    V3 First Time Out

    I received my V3 in early December, and last week was its first test. I went to a local high school built in the late 40's. Among acres of snow covered fields I was able to find a small section showing green grass. I turned on my V3 and programed to Coin and got started. Within my first 10...
