    Another Rosie day

    I got in a couple of hunts this week. I went to a sports complex and hunted around the outside of the ball fields and picked up a pretty good clad count. Then yesterday I went back to the old home sites where I found another Rosie and some wheat pennies. I hunted in coin and high trash programs...

    First Silver! Finally.

    Silver sure makes for a good hunt. 1947 was a great year too that's the date stamp on my birth certificate.:rofl:

    Second copper tonight!

    I hope the coin will show some details after a good soak. I can't believe you have snow today, here in the south the sun came out after the rain stopped and we had a nice evening.:clapping:

    Pretty good day with my first silver coin spill

    Very nice pocket full of silver. I bet that would have bought a nice meal back in the 40's, or at least a few beers.:cheers:

    Class Ring returned after 24 years

    Thanks Guys, This is the second class ring I have been able to return and two Sterling ID bracelets as well. Each time it has been a real thrill to connect with people this way. This was the first time I was able to recover one that I was asked to find so that makes it even more rewarding to me...

    Class Ring returned after 24 years

    I was talking about my new V3i to a friend of mine last Friday. He told me that his daughter was playing dress up when she was 12 years old and got her moms class ring out of her jewelery box. She went outside and lost it in the yard. That was 24 years ago. On Saturday I went to his house and...

    VCO needs to be turned on? I guess I need to read the manual again?? This machine is way smarter than Me.:usmc:

    Coin program

    Question....When I got my new V3i a few weeks ago the instruction DVD was not in the box so I e-mailed Whites and they sent me one. I was watching it today and they showed the first preset program on the list as "Coin" program. I don't have a "Coin Program on mine. I have Coin/ Jewelry but not...

    Hi Trash program vs coin/jewelry

    I'll have to try that tip on e-mailing myself the pictures, thanks. I just got a $100 cupon from Whites for a story about an ID bracelet I found and returned in the lake with my Beach Hunter ID. It had been in the water over 60 years. The owner passed away in 2000 but his brother was thrilled to...

    Hi Trash program vs coin/jewelry

    Thanks Bob, There is such a mind game going on when hunting trying to keep up with it all gets a little crazy sometimes. Just like trying to remember the vid numbers of a target when I dig it. After an hour and many targets while I'm digging a target I have toask myself is this a dime ot a...

    Hi Trash program vs coin/jewelry

    This is along the line of thought I was reffering to when I used my XLT over the same area I hunted with the V3i in High Trash mode and found a war nickel last week.It is exciting to know the options this machine has to offer but it sure will make you second guess yourself. My guess is the more...

    Same place more silver

    I have been hunting for about 5 years now and the phrase " a place is never hunted out" is what I have read on many forums. I guess it is a combination of things like new hi tech machines but the fact of the matter is if the coil doesn't pass over the dime you won't find it. If you look at a...

    Hi Trash program vs coin/jewelry

    I have only had my V3i for a few weeks and I got hooked on the High Trash program with out really giving the coin/jewelry program a chance because it was noisey. Well yesterday I was searching a grass strip about 12 feet wide and 30 feet long looking for a lost class ring. The ring was lost over...

    Heart stopper

    I went by a old park today for the first time. Back in the 20's it was a swimming pool and dance hall but now it was re-done and has basket ball courts and picnic shelters. I don't know where the old park was so I just scouted around for a little while to see if I coild find any old coins. The...

    Andriod and iphone apps can help.

    I wish I had one of those high tech gizzmos but cell phones were on the market for several years before I was convinced I really needed one. I have to admit I was tempted to get one last year when my old cell phone died but the wife said I didn't need one, we don't text or tweet. I guess us old...

    Same place more silver

    Thanks Mick, I also bought a Whites Dual Field PI last fall. It is deep for sure and another learning curve. I think I have everything I need now and the nice thing is, I have been lucky enough to pay for everyone of them with gold and silver I have found over the last 3 years. It's the hobby...

    Same place more silver

    I went back to the same site I hunted Sunday for a few hours. I took my XLT out to start with and went over the same area I worked with the V3i. My first target was a 1943 war nickel at 4 inches. It was a few feet from where I was digging wheaties the other day. I only used the XLT to see how...

    10 Wheaties and 2 silver

    I am still so new to this machine that I read advice on changing settings ect and it doesn't mean a thing to me. I am sure in time it will all come together but for now I'm having fun with my new toy and feel lucky to have found some old coins. I have used my XLT for years in preset programs...
