    Sure missed the XP

    After a couple year hiatus from detecting I have returned to XP products and picked up an ORX. My initial impressions of this detector (ie build, ease of use, etc...) exceed my expectations. I've literally had this detector in hand for less than two hours and have multiple coin targets marked in...

    Another ORX/Deus question

    Hello everyone. I've been away from detecting for a bit and getting back into the hobby. I've had both the 9 and 11" Coils (low freq) for the Deus before, and preferred the 9" coil as I primarily hunt farm field sites with heavy iron. My questions are these : #1. Is there that much of a...

    R2 hunts and review

    Finally able to post a few finds from the past couple of weeks with the Racer Pro pack. First off I would like to commend the Makro/Notka companies for (imo) single handedly changing the customer/company relations concept in our hobby. It truly is a welcomed sight to actually incorporate...

    T2 SE hunt in the iron

    My first run with the T2 se dst. A very quiet and DEEP detector. I was detecting at an old home/field site with the 5" shooter coil for a few hours tonight. Nothing crazy good, but alot of targets found in moderate to heavy iron. Still getting used to the tones but I'm impressed with the dst...

    First run with the G2+

    It's been a busy fall for me, but I finally made it out for a quick hunt after work. I've actually had this detector for a month, but other than put batteries in it and turn it on, today is the first day I've been able to run it in iron. I found that although I am personally not a fan of the...

    'Classic' T2

    Hey all. I'm in search of a decent detector for the upcoming fall field hunt and would appreciate any unbiased opinions of the original T2. I primarily hunt farm fields (long gone home sites) littered with iron, but in mild soil. I'm aware that these units haven't hit the shelves yet, but...

    G2+

    Hey all, I'm looking for any G2+ field reviews. I'm considering picking one up for this fall's field hunt. From what I've seen on YouTube it looks like a nice iron sifting detector with some great features. I especially like the adjustable iron audio and the red backlight. Any and all opinions...

    CZ20 questions

    Hey all, After my CZ3D fiasco, I ended up doing some horse trading and picked up a CZ20 with 8" coil and hard case. I owned one of these units a few years ago and loved it for water hunting, once chest mounted. I'd prefer to get the 10" coil, and may go that way eventually with an upgrade from...

    CZ3D revisited

    After a four year hiatus, I finally have another 3D coming! My last one was tuned, but only validated at just over 9". I loved how these units sniff out the nickels amongst the trash, but wanted a hot one. From what I gather, this is a newer unit, but certified at either 12.5 or 13.5" (previous...

    Daily finds with the Core

    I made it out today to an older estate as the fields are being planted. I only managed a couple of older coins, one 1887 IH and what I suspect is another Chinese coin from the 1700s. At least that's what the last one was. I'll look it up later. I was kind of bummed upon washing the Indian head...

    2nd run with the Core

    I made it out to a couple spots tonight to test the Core a bit. I ended up finding the other half of a trigger guard found earlier this spring at the button site. Only one button found, albeit a newer one. The trigger piece gave a soft, yet solid four way hit at a solid 10". The pic on it's side...

    First run with the Core

    Despite breaking a finger at work yesterday I was able to test the Core out at a field site for a few hours. This site has been hunted hard with another detector. In fact, my last hunt here produced one non-ferrous target. I focused on the house site itself as it is the hardest hit and the...

    Core on the way!

    In the search for a decent detector in iron that doesn't break the bank for extra coils, I've opted to give the Core pro pack a go. I've heard good things about this detector and look forward to trying it out at my field sites. It will be interesting to see if the the shooter coil can find...

    Core pro pack coils

    Hi all. I just sold my Frenchie machine and am looking hard at the Core pro pack. I'm thinking this would be a great package for an all around field and home site style of detecting. I know the shooter coil is superb at separation, but what are you folks thinking about the other two coils...

    A few hunts worth of finds

    Just some of the goodies I've been lucky enough to dig here in Michigan so far. Hoping to get a few more hunts in before crops are planted. I run the Deus with WS4 hp and 9" coil. Typically run 18kHz, sensitivity from 85-90, reactivity 2, disc at 10, silencer at +1. Pretty tame settings, but...

    Think I found my first Civil War button.

    Found these two buttons today at a school site no less here in Michigan! Looks like just a general service button, but I'll take it! I also found what looks like a wanna be dollar gold coin button. Any further help or confirmation on these two finds would be great! Thanks!

    Sundial, security badge, and some whatsits..

    Made it out to an early 1800s site for an hour tonight. Found an old pocket sundial, what's left of a security badge, what looks like a very old lipstick container, some type of ornate clip, and a female decorative piece.

    Two firsts this evening.

    I started this fall season with the hopes of digging my first shield nickel, half dime, and large cent. Well it's been accomplished! Found my half dime earlier in the season, along with two shield nickels, and tonight I dug my first large cent and my first V nickel, ( I had forgotten that I've...

    Buckle id

    Okay guys, being in Michigan the only CW related find I've ever dug was a McClellen token last year. But I seemed to have stumbled across something of the same time period and it looks to be possibly military. Any ideas? The letters AG or AC in fancy script with cannons, swords, muskets, and a...

    Field hunt in the mud.

    The temps soared into the upper 30s today here in MI so I had to get out and play in the mud. Found a skeleton key, a thimble, a couple of toe taps, one has a patent date of 1858, which was pretty cool to find, a couple of unknown clips, a 59' fattie, and my second shield nickel this year ( 1868...
