    Great day to be out

    I love to go to the old spots I am told is cleaned out by others. I tell them that is good to hear as they got rid of the trash and the new and I can get the good stuff now, it is mostly true if the area is old. Rick

    Just a reminder to folks posting on the Garrett Forum about the VX9 issues.

    It sounds like the upgrade is where the problem is, never heard of any real problems with the ones that didnt do the upgrades. I have had mine since the they first came out and wanted to do the upgrades, but havent yet and will wait until Garrett has a chance to fix the last upgrade. I know...

    Five Dollar Token, Silver Quarters, Dimes, Jewelry and others

    lookin good Dave, very nice find to start off this year. Shows you must have done some research while waiting for spring. I have a few people asking about the Manicore, but not seen one in action yet, but you are showing it does work great. Rick

    Deeptech Vista Smart Plus ??

    I picked this detector up used from a dealer and I dont think this wont work for me as I am mainly a coin hunter and need a threshold for me to detect and wonder if this is made for more relic hunting than coin hunting. If someone has one and use it for coin hunting I would like to hear what...

    Quattro Question

    Man did I make a mistake as I looked at a Quattro I have here and forgot the Explorer series has a different shaft that use round washers that are made for the Quattro that are made just for the Explorer series. These round washers snap into the shaft and usually fit tight, dont know if plain...

    Could use some help here

    Nice find, like the look of it. It is of someone that had some money from the looks of it and my first impression looks like it has on one edge a stopper of some sort, is there rubber or something on what looks like a plug. If it is that my impression is a stopper for a bottle of some some...

    Sovereign battery pack swollen?

    Ted if it has a drop in pack for the XS2 or XS2a I believe you need the AA packs and the bar that connect the 2 packs that make contact with the 2 springs on the battery housing also and the cover holds it tight. Now the XS and the original Sovereign is connected by a wire and the ones I like...

    Sovereign battery pack swollen?

    I think the battery pack for the Sovereign is bad if it is swelled up, but I myself woulnt leave it in the Sovereign when not in use as it may start leaking. I have a extra Sovereign XS2 for a spare or maybe see if I can do some mod to make it lighter. The person I got it has a different...

    Quattro Question

    The Washers on the Quattro is the tear drop rubber washers that many of the Minelabs use. Most good Minelab dealer should have them in stock or the auction site. These wear out with moving the coil so they are probably wore out and wont hold tight. now if you are using the factory bolt with new...

    Fail to Pinpoint On End Coins

    I think that any coin at a angle will read off center and will not pinpoint correctly, so since I used the Sovereign plus any of the Minelabs I use the tip of the coil to go around my target to see if it reads in the same spot in disc then go to pinpoint all metal and double check and see if...

    Garrett Metal Detectors Love Coins And Jewelry!

    Lookin good with your VX9 you have, I also have one and going to get out soon with it as our ground is still froze. I can see it is going to be different but what I have seen it maybe not that hard to learn, but like any detector can fool you. One thing I wonder about as I want to update it and...

    Official Red Book of US Coin Values

    My opinion is that this was a reg half that someone may have carried it in their pockets long time as a good luck piece as it is wore out. as you see it is thinner on the edges and there is a lot of scratches on it as it is wore out and you can check the weight and see what the weight is and see...

    Needing a new Shovel

    Looks like a great shovel and would do the trick for many of us that do farm fields. The only thing is using these in parks and lawns as some say the shovels do a great job digging plugs and able to make it look good. I know many use these in parks and such and seen some videos that look great...

    Question

    If I read this right when you use the X1 probe after you locate the signal with the Explorer then go to pinpoint and use the X1 probe it is not too stable if the detector is set on manual, but in semi auto it sounds OK. The reason for this is in manual it sees more including interference if...

    Just Curious.

    Del I seem to always have a positive attitude when talking detecting and a lot of detecting, but when working I am like many and have a negative attitude as I want to be out detecting or at least talking about it. Rick
