    This Week Started Well

    Hey folks, went to a spot that has really been difficult. Super high trash, mixed layers, etc. I have found a few silvers here in the past, with the oldest being from the 40s. I was looking in the trash and happened upon a nice silver turtle ring. Next I found a Union Made overall button...

    Back in the Saddle

    My falls and springs are eaten up with coaching my kids' soccer. Not complaining, I love it. Just is. So, now that is done, it is time for me to get back being eaten up metal detecting :yo: Got out for a short hunt Saturday morning to a small, out of the way park. I love those kinds, as they...

    Distracted By Silver, I found Gold Teeth!

    Hey everyone. Spent early morning and evening out detecting and what a day! I've been wanting to get on the gold recently. So, I decided to head out at first light to a school sports field that is old. It was a no go as they are constructing a new bldg. Booooooo. So, I had a backup to go to...

    Hunting the Mid Tones

    Hey all, went out today to finally try to get on the gold. I decided to hunt with zero discrim, full tones, 12khz. Was hunting an older ball diamond. Definitely got the knack of hitting on the nickels. Not shown was some foil too. The Nike ring is copper I think. Was a little more jumpy...

    1877 S Seated Quarter & Silver Ring

    Howdy folks. Got out this morning. It was hot by 8:30, bleh. Hit a school that was not doing anything. Bleh. On the way home, I decided to hit a buddy's old place that I have pounded with 3 other detectors. Found the 1877 S seated quarter among a bunch of iron. A smooth, angled rock...

    I love trash!

    I have loved the Deus for deep targets, but boy oh boy - I really love trash now! I think I have figured hunting in trash. I get to go back and clean up all the things other detectorists couldnt. Really impressed. First hunt was farmhouse with lots of EMI, trash, iron, etc. Second was...

    Found 1840s School in the Woods

    Found some older maps of my area and scoped some new locations that I didn't know about before. One of them seemed to indicate an old school, which is now all woods. Sure enough, it was right. Lots of buttons in this small spot - hopefully a lot more to come. I'll pound this area.

    18 Wheat Pennies and a Silver Washington Quarter

    Went back to my new site. Can't find the old homesite, but I'll keep trying. Have gotten over 50 wheats out of this spot so far! I think we are up to 7 silvers too.

    Got a New Decent Site

    Hello all. Found a good new site that I hunted with a buddy. Here are the spoils. Two days, 1 1/2 hours the first, 1 hour second. Deus did great in the trash! First day: [attachment 327922 IMG_1224.JPG] Second day with dirt, then cleaned: [attachment 327923 IMG_1229.JPG] [attachment...

    Double Silver

    Went back to a place I have hunted many times. Got a signal literally 3 minutes after starting. Got a 54 rosie from out under a rock, pretty deep. Again, I have been over this area so many times. The signal was odd sounding, but had enough of a good tone to make me dig. Impressive. I...

    Deep Wheats and Shotgun shell

    Only had an hour, so I put my deep settings on and went back to the ballfield to try my luck. Got some deep, iffy signals. Dug em and got the wheats. Got a strong signal and kept digging and digging. Another Winchester Repeater shell. Snapped a pic of the hole I pulled the 1934 wheat out...

    Deus Finds Silver Broach

    With temps being crazy nice, I decided to hit another place I had hunted with the ATP. Got a higher signal with some lower tones mixed in. Dug it and out pops this cool silver broach. Well, i still have to test it, but no discoloration. Backing was broken off.

    The Deus is a Beast

    So, I feel like I'm getting the hang of the Deus. I definitely can find targets at depth now. What I mean is that I am doing well honing in settings wise. I went out on a hunt today that would allow me to test various hunting styles: deep old targets, targets among trash, and targets with...

    Thanksgiving Big Silver

    Hey everyone, even though I am a Deus noob, I was able to pull this 1943 Silver half out of the ground this morning. I was hunting at a family member's house that I have hit before. It was build in 1827. Unfortunately, the ground has been bulldozed in almost all areas during a rehab in the...

    Deeper Targets

    Went back to a park that I have absolutely pounded with the AT Pro. I am in awe of the Deus. I read more and decided to go with a deep setup. First target was a deep, 1938 wheat. That got me stoked. So, I decided to hit an outfield that I just couldn't get targets with the ATP. I had a...

    New XP Deus Owner

    I'm happy to say that I recently acquired a Deus. I have been out a few times and am really enjoying it. I have found 3 wheat pennies in areas that I have absolutely pounded. I just can't get over how light and responsive it is. Being wireless is so nice too. I've been sitting on the GM...
