    tejon hits it big..

    first hunt of the year..I was thrilled to dig the 1901o Morgan dollar and shocked to dig the 1903 one peso but when I dug the two 1oz .999 silver pandas I smelled a rat..I think I stumbled upon the leftovers of a seeded hunt. good finds none the less and a nice way to start the year..

    Tesoro service:detecting::clapping:

    Okay...we recently saw a scorching review of Tesoro service and now it's time to tell a real and typical story of how the wheels normally turn. Sent my Tejon and two coils back for repair. About three weeks later it was in my hands with broken wires repaired, new speaker, headphone jack, and...

    Garrett pro pointer

    Purchased a pro pointer in june of this year and had to send it back for warranty repair. I just want to say that they fixed it quickly and sent it back with a new shell and charged me nothing and even paid for the return shipping. My thanks to them for the excellent turnaround time and full...

    First seated dime:detecting:

    Got out this past weekend and did a bit of digging on an old farm in upstate NY. Three firsts for me. 1875 seated dime with Carson City mint mark, a badly worn 1893 Barber quarter, and a 1908 french 50 cent piece. Also dug a nice 1905 Indian head in excellent shape from the same hole as the 50...

    Second barber

    Went to a local park I have been working and got my second Barber dime at about 3"... but wouldn't you know I gouged it. Much to my relief it had no mint mark so I didn't ruin a key date. Also got three different dollar coins and the weird thing is that I have never found a dollar coin before...

    dangerous digging

    Went to a local park with the stock coil on my Tejon and was going after deep silver. I didn't want to damage any coins so I was starting with the shovel and finishing with my hands and the propointer. Good thing because I dug 5 live rounds. One was a little .22long but 4 were .25-35 rifle...

    First Barber dime this year!:detecting:

    This is my silver from the last couple of hunts. The 1906 Barber was beat up but I was thrilled to dig it. The Barber and the '40 wash came from a private yard and the others came from a local park. The Barber was my 35th silver since June 6th and my oldest coin found so far here in NYC. Got a...

    shallow silver

    Finally got out again for a short hunt. Dry ground and small coil makes for poor depth but the great discrimination of the Tejon picked these out of the trash. '36 merc with lots of tarnish and a nice clean '61 roosie from about a foot apart. The sterling ring with the turquoise came from an...

    last two hunts.

    Went to a nearby park and worked a spot for about six hours. It is a small area recently cleared of vegetation and I don't expect much from the next hunt or two. I have gotten 10 silvers so far there and worked it pretty good but I think I can pull a few more. Got a 1913 wheatie there also. In...
