    Never found one of these before...

    My first seated quarter! It looks as though it may have been in a fire, thus the two tone look. Found the IHP under a sage brush bush and near a wooden fence post and lots of barbed wire and rusted tin. I was using my Nokta Fors Core with the 4.7x5.2 coil in Di3 with the sens at 97 disc at 20...

    Second time out with the Nox 800 and got some Silver!

    Today I was able to hit the same home that was demo'd were I found the toy .45 auto and hunted the curb strip and a small section of the front yard. Three silver dimes, a war nickle and a buffalo were the prizes of the day. We used some creative lighting and a second pair of eyes and think the...

    11" X35 coil

    I'm wondering how the 11" X35 coil is on coins and rings compared to the 9" X35 or either of the HF coils? I know there can be a difference when higher or lower frequencies are used as well as the conditions of the search site, therefore my question is both general and specific. General in the...

    How much Discrimination...

    I have read several different ideas on how much Disc (mininum) we can run before it starts affecting things like tones etc. I have used 3.1, 2.4 and don't seem to notice a difference. I want to use as little as possible but sometimes you just need to.

    An hour and a silver ring.

    I had an hour around 3 o'clock yesterday so I took the clean sweep and the Outlaw (because I don't have a Bandito micro max) to a ball field to do some surface cleaning and was rewarded at my second to last did with this silver, 925, infinity ring. As you can see I also found some kids rings and...

    What am I going to be missing out on...?

    For a while now i've been wanting to add a NOX to my detector arsenal. I have an XP Deus, which I really like, and some other specialty and loaner detectors and want to try out the NOX as a compliment to the Deus. I'm sure they do the same things, just a little differently and with thier...

    Civil War find!

    This buckle was found Monday in Meridian Idaho at a street tear out. I had no idea one of these could be found around here. It was about 7" deep and was found with a Nokta Racer 2 with the small elliptical coil in in 3 tone. This wasn't even on my bucket list! The other Anchor pin/broach type...

    Coin test garden

    I'm curious as to how long it could take to have our test garden react like it hasn't been dug up and planted? I understand that soil, moisture and mineralization can and will affect the outcome. So, I'm just looking for general information. By the way, I live near Boise, Idaho so its semi high...

    Used Deus or New ORX?

    I have the opportunity to purchase a slightly used Deus with the 9 in coil, for $700 with head phones, etc. I have no real intention of using the notch feature and perhaps some of the other features that come with the Deus. So, I was wondering if for the price the Deus makes the most sense here...

    Coils and inter usability

    I am wondering if since they are made by the same company, if the Multi Kruzer and Impact coils are interchangeable? I think the Kruzer coils are sealed better than the Impact but I don't know that for sure. Does anyone have any first hand knowledge one way or the other? Thanks, Dan

    Tot lot and fence lines etc.

    I like to hunt some of the 'not so easy' places that others avoid due to the metal support posts, like benches, tot lot supports, fences and any other area with similar structures. What I normally use is my MXT Pro with the 5.3" or 4X6 coil with the gain tuned just so it doesn't get overloaded...

    First of three for me

    The V nickle came from the dirt below the wood chips in a tot lot. Found with a V3i with the 8x6 whites coil. The flip phone from around a fire pit in a park. Found with a Tesoro Tejon Black with the stock coil. The Indian Head penny from a side walk tear out. It has 1__0 visible for the date...

    Looking to add a new detector...

    I have had the XL PRO and now have the MXT PRO which I like allot - more than the XL PRO?, maybe. That being said, I'm looking to add a new machine so I can have a back up and anther machine to give me more versatility and enjoyment. I live in the Boise area, frequent Utah and Oregon, somewhat...

    Interesting day

    I came across a new home owner in my neighborhood that had some top soil brought in and had spread it around the front yard. It varied from a couple of inches to 6 or 7" deep. I obtained permission to search and this is what I came up with in about and hour and a half. Yes, that is a live...

    To "upgrade" or not?

    I have an MXT PRO with the 950 and the 4x6 coil. I have used this in Indiana and now in Idaho. I have made a few decent finds on coins as deep as 8" but most have been in the 4-5" range. I like to get the most out of each hunt because about half the time I only get one chance at a property...

    Help getting back in the game...

    I've been out of the game for about y years now and will shortly have the time to 'get back in'. I ran a 6000 Xl pro or pro xl for about 2 years and really liked it. I live in Utah now and know there's a fair amount of mineralization in the soil and was wondering which used machines would be...

    Headphone preference for the Xl Pro

    I'm on a tight budget for my hobbies this year, unless I can find more silver or even some nice gold pieces soon, so I'm looking a really good/great pair of headphones to be used with my Xl Pro. Any suggestions? By the way, I bought a pair last year that cost me $50, on sale, but they are...

    Back up / second detector

    I got into this exciting hobby last year. After much research and budget chrunching I picked up a barely used 6000 Pro XL with the standard 9", a Blue Max 1500 and a 5.3 coil. I coupled that with a Harder Pro pointer and a set of headphones. I have been coin hunting mostly, which is...

    My apologies...

    I'm afraid I may have offended some of you. In my last post my fiirst silver and more, I referred to a 1943 nickel as silver. My bad! Thanks to a true gentleman My ignorance was rewarded with knowledge. You know you are thanks again. And thanks to everyone else for your understanding of...
