    Deus II 13x11 coil

    Looks like they are slowly hitting the market. I found a few sites but they will not ship to the US.

    WSA II XL and 9 Inch Coil

    For those who have the WSA II XL's what do you think about them? For those who have used both coils how do you like the 9 compared to the 11? I decided it was time to grab them both and was wondering how others liked them Thanks

    People Planting Finds

    fairly big YouTuber was just busted buying a love token off eBay and planting it for his most recent video (which he has now deleted). I know why people do this but it's insane how many do it. The fun is researching and finding those great finds not buying stuff and pretending you found it. It's...

    Engraved Silver Spoon and Barber Quarter

    Took the Deus 2 back to the field of make up compacts, chicken advertising buttons, and flatware and pulled out a silver spoon with the name HARRY engraved on it and a 1909o Barber Quarter. HH

    Another 2 center and a SLQ

    2nd 2 cent piece this week and a dateless SLQ. The 2 cent was totally unexpected it was in a field where a barn supposedly burned down 70ish years ago (didn't find any iron patches so haven't found the barn yet). The SLQ was in a field where fill was brought in at some point. There is broken...

    2 Cent, Shield, and Liberty Cap Largie

    I haven't been finding much even though I've been out a ton this year. It took me until last week to find my first coin (Barber Dime). The 2 hunts after that made up for it and then some! The site has produced some old Tombac buttons as well. It is littered with dozens and dozens of what looks...

    First Couple Deus 2 Hunts

    My initial review is it's a way over hyped, over priced, average detector. It is definitely fast and very light. It LOVES can slaw and makes it sound like large copper/silver. Using the XY axis and had at least 6 or 7 targets with solid diagonal lines, no hook, and ID of 90 +/-1 with it ending...

    Distance of Colonial Homes From Rivers

    I've been trying to find a handful of colonial sites along the river in a bunch of my fields. In your experience how far were most colonial homes from the river? I know rivers change all the time but I'm just trying to get an idea. The field closest to the river I think is a lost cause because...

    Went Back to the 18 Musketball Hole... And Got Kicked Out

    Been busy with work so didn't get to post my return visit to where I found 18 musket balls in the same hole. I had a little trouble finding where the hole was (that's how good I cut and fill my holes). I find it and find a bunch of small buck shot and another musket ball making it 19! After the...

    18 Musket Balls in 1 Hole!

    I haven't been finding much to write home about the last few months but today made up for it. Went to one of my fields where the farmer said they tilled up 2 Revolutionary War cannon balls decades ago. It's a massive field and I've been slowly covering it and digging everything. Got a signal...

    Last Couple Hunts

    I haven't done much hunting the last month+ because of how short we are at work and water being high so no water hunts. I had someone back out of letting me hunt a spot I've wanted to hit for a long time but such is life. I went to a spot that had Rev. Troops march and the house there is late...

    Finally Found a Nox Coiltek 10x5

    Doing some research on new spots since the ground is too hard to dig (it's like dust). For some weird reason I take a break and cruise some sites just to see if a 10x5 is in stock and low and beyond BAM I find one! I'm like a kid on Christmas having to wait now!

    First Seated Quarter

    I haven't been out too much since my fields have been planted and when I have gotten out I didn't find anything to write home about. I said wtf and stopped at buddy's house (built in 1789 and there was rumored to be a trading post there) where I pulled a Morgan and a few other older silvers last...

    Merc, 2 Euchred Coppers, and Some Junk

    Hit a field I've hit a bunch and found the coins in area I've went over a handful of times. Large cent (#19 FTY) is first one I've found in this field and she's toast. The holed copper is too euchred to ID, Merc is 1927 and #18 silver FTY

    Bone Handle Knife and Large Cent #18 FTY

    Probably done hitting this spot until fall when the overgrowth is dead. So many weeds, prickles, small trees, and nails it's tough to swing. Did sniff out a knife with what looks like a bone handle still on it in decent shape and a large cent. The large cent was ringing all over and had a couple...

    Seeking Excalibur II Manual

    Does anyone have an Excalibur II manual they don't need and want to sell it? I think my old lady's kid threw mine out by mistake.

    Hour Hunt Lands 1 Maybe 2 Largies

    Went out early this AM before it got hot (lasted an hour) and found some goodies! Axe head, part of a kettle, religious pendant, and maybe 2 large cents. The one is really slick but looks like it might have lettered edging

    Large Cent #14 FTY

    Went looking for a house on a 1853 map of my area. There was not a lot of flat area for it to be (maybe 15 feet of flat land then it drops down to a creek) and no sight of a foundation or well (maybe used creek for well since it's right there) but I think I found 'er. #14 FTY don't know what...

    KG3?

    Went back to where I've found the 10 largies, trime, and flying eagle and sniffed this out of the heavy iron. I didn't see any details at all until I got back to my truck and the rain soaked the coin. Looks like Britannia on the back?
