    Another Silver and Gold Day!! Maybe a Diamond Too!

    I got into our county fairgrounds ampitheater today and it paid off!! It's usually locked up but I caught one of the workers inside and he let me have at it. I ended up with a nice butterfly sterling ring and a little 14K ring with what I hope is a real rock. It's the best looking one I've ever...

    Deus Scores Silver and Gold!

    Went to a local High School with a friend today and had a blast!! Found a 54 Washington Quarter at 6", 3 Wheat Cents, the deepest at an honest 8+" and 5.5 gr of 14K at about 4"!! I've had my Deus for about a month and I'm liking it better all the time.

    AT-Pro Screen Question

    I'm sure this question has been asked before but I'll ask it again. Has anyone ever got moisture under the decal on the screen of the receiver housing and had it make a line across the screen or something to that effect? I didn't know that there was a decal on it in the first place. It cost me a...

    Productive Couple of Days at 1860's Church

    I have been hunting this church since I started detecting and it always seems to give something up. I ended up with 2 silver dimes, a 1907 S Barber and a 1960 D Rosie a ring with some interesting history and a bunch of toasted Wheaties. The ring is inscribed with OB STER 1/30 14K RGP, it was...

    Rosie and a Ring with Interesting History

    I got my second silver coin for 2014 and a really cool ring. It's inscription reads OB STER 1/30 14K RGP. The ring was made by the Otsby Barton Company established in 1879 in Providence Rhode Island. Engelhart Otsby (one of the founders) was killed in the sinking of the Titanic. This seems to...

    Coil Cable Question

    The cable on my 6X8 sef coil is all stretched out and I have a heck of a time getting it inside the shafts. I ended up with this loop in the cable trying to adjust everything shorter. Is the loop a bad thing or does it affect the way it works at all. I have found some fairly deep junk with it...

    New Etrac user

    Hello Everyone, I have just become the proud owner of a Etrac! I have been hanging around on here off and on since August. Most recently I've been swinging a MXT Pro primarily and a AT-Pro as my foul weather and water machine. I also have a Sovereign Elite that's at Minelab at the moment and a...

    I didn't know if I should laugh or cry!!

    I recieved my Sovereign Elite from Ron today and couldn't wait to get it out in the field to see what would happen. I got her put together and went to a baseball field complex that I got permision to hunt. It was started in the mid 30's with 1 field and has grown to 8 over the years. I have some...

    Testing Bottle caps with my AT-PRO

    I'm trying to test my 3 month old AT-PRO that I just got. I put a bottle cap on a piece of clean ground to try and get the low high low tone and all I get is a garbled mess. I have swept the area with my Ace 350 and the AT-PRO and it's clean. I have also tried air testing the bottle cap with the...

    My Sovereign Elite needs help

    Hello Minelab fans, I have posted about my Elite before and the problems that I have had with it. Basically the problem is that when I try to detect it will kind of make a snap then go to a siren type sound and then shut down. Sometimes I can take the battery pack out the put it back in and it...

    Waiting For AT-PRO

    I'm sitting around waiting to go to the post office to see if my new PRO has arrived. I usually go hunting in the morning but today I didn't want to get to far away. Hopefully I'll be hunting with a new detector today!!!

    And yet another question about my troublesome Sovereign Elite

    So I decided that I couldn't iron out the problems with my Elite so I was going to send it back to my Dad. As I was getting ready to get it going my Dad calls and gives it to me free of charge. Now I think I want to put some money into it and get it working right. My question is, what is the...

    A rookie mistake?

    Well here I go again. Is it common when learning on my Sovereign Elite to get what I think is a really good sounding high tone to dig a 3" piece of iron? I'm running in disc and thought that I wasn't supposed to hear iron. This seems to be the bulk of the deeper targets that I dig. After...

    Another Sovereign Elite Question

    I hope I'm not being a pain in the neck with all the questions but I'm still having doubts that my machine is working right. Last night I was out hunting and my machine would act like it went dead. I have been having this problem and when it does I remove the battery pack and replace it and it...

    My new (to me) Sovereign Elite

    Hello, I'm new to this forum and fairly new to detecting although I'm totally hooked! I bought a Elite with the 10" Tornado coil because I wanted a deeper detecting machine than my Ace 350. I had some problems getting started but got some help from another member of this forum and got going on...
