    First RR Tag

    Went hunting with a few friends on Saturday to an 1880's ghost town. It was a hard hunt but tons of fun. We had three e-tracs swinging but only one coin was found, an 1891 V Nickle. There is so much iron, tin ect that even with Sun ray X-5 coils its hard to get good target separation. We found...

    Minelab GPX

    E-Track may not be the right venue for this post but wasn't sure where to put it. Why no GPX form? I'd love to see what the gold guys are up to. What do you all think, are you interested in seeing the gold diggers finds?

    Ghost town items

    I recently found these doodads in an old mining town that dates from around 1860-1920. The first 2 pics are, I think , a suspender buckle, but I really don't know. It is about 2 inches long and 1 and 3/4 inches tall. Has anyone seen anything like it? The third and forth pics are of an item that...

    Nice token

    I have been eyeballing this abandoned house just a block away from my own for some time. Its funny it seems all I do while I'm driving is evaluating likely detecting spots. In any case on my way home from work yesterday there was a woman mowing the lawn of the abandoned house. I quickly pulled...

    Has anyone used the Oregon Scientific atc9k? I was thinking of buying one but was wondering if anyone had a review on it. Thanks, Nathan

    Token or Medal

    A friend of mine just purchased a rental house built in the 40's. The first question I ask is of course, "Can I detect the yard?" So I took off from work early and went to swinging. I found a lot of clad a few Wheaties one 41 Merc and one medal or token. I think medal is the right work as a...

    First hunt with the E-Track

    Hey all, this is my first post to this section as I have been using mt Whites V3i for the last year. I have to say the e-track is a far More intuitive machine to use. I had been detecting with a friend who has an e-track and he consistently out performed my v3i on the deep coins. I had to get my...

    Best of August

    I want to share some of the better finds from August. The Barber half and the Chinese coins came from an old mining town in central Idaho. The Louie XVI 1784 Sen I found at a construction site in downtown Boise. I know, weird right. Someone lost this coin 100 years after it was minted and I dug...

    V3 and Prospecting

    Lately I have been trying to explore all of the programs on my v3. Myself and a friend went to an old dredge site to look for nuggets. I used the v3 in prospecting mode and came up with this beauty. The stone was at about 3 inches deed in a big pile of dredge tailings. In prospecting mode it hit...

    What to do about BRASS

    After careful research and talking with some of the old timers, I found a very promising site for detecting. The site is an old hot springs that was used from 1850 to around the mid 1950's. The spring dried up in the mid 50's after a well was drilled some miles down stream. Up until that time is...

    First Silver

    So these are my finds for my fist week of detecting. I purchased my v3 about 2 weeks ago and spent the first week practicing and reading the posts here. Sorry for the pic quality as I used my cell phone. I found: A spoon, 2 brass clasps, lots of clad, a 45 bullet, a bell of some kind, a gold...

    Gooey

    I recently purchased the V3 and I love it, great machine. However I can see room for improvement. 1. Why not make the user interface gooey. Get rid of the push buttons, make the screen a little larger and install a joystick across from the trigger switch. Use the trigger for a left right click...
