    I am getting a V3i!! Coils?

    Yikes, looks like I would be just as well off to buy a new Whites 10x12 SEF coil to reduce the confusion.

    I am getting a V3i!! Coils?

    Hi all! After about a week of research, I have found my next detector! I am getting a V3i! Before I order though, I would like to know what 2 or 3 coils I should add to my arsenal with this detector. Which coils have been proven time and time again for you and under what conditions? I am mainly...

    Just cant decide what detector to purchase...

    Im really having trouble discriminating between hype and the real deal with online investigation. I have looked into the GPX 5000 but it seems it's just not enough bang for the buck plus there's not much discrimination for trashy areas. It seems like a great detector for gold prospecting but I...

    Seriously considering a GPX 5000

    Hey everyone! Im really debating on purchasing a GPX 5000. I really need the depth advantage to detect those coins and relics in my area. There are a lot of detectorists that have lived in my area over the past 30 years or so. Most areas have been wiped clean near the surface. I have realized...

    old flat button. ID please!

    Hey all! I have a flat button that I found in a horse pasture along side a small musket ball (or some type of ball). These were found in Pendleton County, WV. I would like to know if someone could ID this button and possibly be able to tell me how old the button is. I have a picture of the back...

    Need to rent or borrow an MXT Pro

    Where can I rent or borrow a MXT Pro? I used to own one and detected with it for over a year. I knew the detector pretty well and, I have a friend who has lost a gold class ring many years ago. The only other detector I have is a Bounty Hunter QD2 and it doesnt do the trick because it's shorted...

    Knife found in woods

    Hey all, my dad is a fire fighter and yesterday he was fighting a fire in the middle of no where and they had to use a rope just to climb the side of the mountain to fight the fire. Anyway, in the middle of all of that was this knife. It's hard to believe that a knife could be out in the middle...

    Ultrasonic coin cleaning

    Has anyone tried these and how do they work? I've been looking at them pretty seriously but im not sure what frequency would work best on the coins. Im just wanting to clean clad for now however, it seems like this method of cleaning wouldnt be very harsh on the coins as long as they were kept...

    Gold with the MXT Pro?

    I was curious how many of you all have prospected for gold using the MXT Pro? How small of a piece could it find? I have yet to see any youtube videos of anyone legitimately prospecting with one and showing the gold afterwards. Im not doubting that the MXT Pro can get gold. Im just curious how...

    Getting a Whites MXT Pro!!!:yo:

    Im picking it up this Friday! While I'm waiting, I was curious if some of you, who know this detector well, could give me some good pointers on techniques that the instruction booklets dont teach you. I was also curious if any of you have searched for gold nuggets and found them with the MXT...

    Bounty Hunter's 4 inch coil for gold

    I was looking on ebay the other day for a smaller coil and happen to see there was a coil for bounty hunter detectors that worked for gold nuggets. Has any of you tried using one of these? How do they work out in highly mineralized ground...

    A picture of a hunt and some questions about the Bounty Hunter 2

    Hey everyone, I posted a bunch of links to pictures on flickr that I posted yesterday in the "Whatzit" forum under the thread "Nice hunt by a old late 1700's log cabin" I also have a video of the hunt as well. However, just for reference here's an overview...

    Nice hunt by a old late 1700's log cabin

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F--Gf150Hgw There are a couple things I would like information on. The most important would be the bullets. They are lead. If you would like some close up pictures of them let me know and i'll see what I can do. The thing I call a belt buckle... What is it really...

    Anyone near Morgantown, WV?

    Hey all, Is there anyone who is from around the Morgantown, WV area and would like a MD partner? I just have a Bounty Hunter 2 but i've had pretty good luck with it so far. I also have a Treasure Mate for a pin-pointer. Thanks!

    Anyone looking for company in Morgantown, WV?

    Hey all, I was looking for someone who wants to tag along with me or let me tag along with them on metal detecting trips in the Morgantown area. I have some experience and am pretty good at finding coins. I have a Bounty Hunter II, and a Treasure Mate pinpointer. I would like some company!! I...

    Bounty Hunter II

    Hey guys, I was wondering if any of you found a way to distinguish between cans and coins. For some reason when I go over a can that's underground I get the same tone consistently and the depth doesnt change. I'm fine with everything else but cans....Why wont this thing consider a can junk...

    Youtube video of finds

    Hey guys. I cleaned up the school yard the other week with a Bounty Hunter 2. As long as you know how to use it for coins you got yourself a good metal detector. I found a 1700's button there as well!!!!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G7Yq30lacK8 There are some pretty nice ads there for...

    Need help determining what, and how old this is

    Hey all, I found this thing that looks like a VERY old button yesterday while metal detecting. As you may be able to tell, only half of the button is in recognizable shape while the other side is worn severely. If you look closely on the side that's recognizable you can see what maybe a wing...
