    Here is a token I found last week. I found it in South Dakota. It is brass and measures 24mm. The reverse appears to be blank unless its worn off. Thanks.

    Coins on edge. Concentric or Double-D coils ??

    I mainly search fields after harvest that are plowed before winter. These fields are old picnic grounds. The coins lay at every angle possible. From experience what coils work best for coins at angles or on edge. The detectors I have now are all DD coiled detectors.

    Go-pro camera mounted to Pro-Swing 45

    This is probably the craziest question I have ever asked on Findmall. I would like to attach my Go-pro camera to the Pro-Swing harness. Has anyone had any success at this. If so how did you do it. Thanks

    Pick Axe For Frozen Ground ???

    Looking for suggestions for digging frozen ground. I hunt farm fields mainly. We recently had a cold spell when a new record was set at below zero for 78 hours straight. Some of that was close to -30 degrees. There is no snow on the ground but it is rock hard. We do get above freezing often so...

    Backpack For XP Deus ???

    I was curious what would work good for a backpack that will hold the 9 and 11 inch coils, WS4 and remote, pin-pointer etc. It does not need to be a XP Deus brand.

    Which HF Coil Should I Get

    I bought my first XP this spring and strictly hunt farm fields probably 80% of the time. These fields are tilled so the coins lay at every angle possible. My finds went up dramatically from my other detectors in the same fields. I believe it is because the XP is better at finding these coins...

    Fast on/off Deep on/off ??. Freshly ripped bean stubble.

    I hunt a farm field that was once a picnic grove. He just ripped it this week. Every 5 or so years the farmer rips it to 16" deep. This brings up old coins and buries more also. The majority are on edge or at an angle. Is it best to run fast on or off and deep on or off. Auto or manual...

    For those of you using the armband remote.

    I just started using my new XP. I was curious if those of you using the armband for the remote instead of leaving it on the shaft see an advantage. I do not have the armband now.

    Question on ground balance?

    I went out for the first time today with my new Xp Deus. Several programs use 90 as a preset for ground balance. When I use pumping or tracking my Deus runs between 75-77. Is this low to medium mineralization. Am I better off setting it in manual and running 90. I noticed when I would get to...

    First coin after reading Andy's book

    I received Andy's book last week and have been looking forward to experimenting with some of the ideas in the book. I had the patterns already loaded from page 135 which are very similar to Andy's popular program for the Etrac. I did not have the #2 pattern set up but copied it from the book. I...

    Barber half dollar from plowed cornstalks

    I researched some old newspapers this last winter and located an old picnic grounds used from 1897 to the mid 1920's. It has been farmland since then and recently plowed under with a moldboard plow. I had about an hour to search today. I also found 1886 and 1888 Indian head pennies. They were...

    Deep coin settings for 13x17" coil.???

    I have had the 13x17" coil for my CTX for a year now. I did not use it a lot last year. Maybe close to 20 hours. I also have a 13" Ultimate for my Etrac which I have had for 3 years. I have a couple of 'secret' places that I had a good amount of deep finds with the Ultimate coil. I can honestly...

    Are coins shallower in heavy woods ???

    I recently returned to a picnic grove that was active from about 1900-1940. I tried hunting it in 1978 when I bought my first detector. I found nothing but junk and never went back. I went back a couple of weeks ago for the first time since 1978. The grove is almost impossible to search because...

    A day in the life at a 1860's military post.

    During the 1860's there were several military posts or forts that sprung up in the west and Midwest. I know of a couple of these locations that are nothing more than cornfields now. They saw no battles or skirmishes at all. What was everyday life like. How often were the soldiers paid. Was is...
