Some Of My First Finds In Northern Canada.
geof_junk replied to fogrider's topic in Metal Detecting For Coins & Relics
Some nice finds there, well done. How would you like to have had the Equinox 600 back in the early 1980s. -
Gold Price Expected To Rise Significantly Soon
geof_junk replied to Aureous's topic in Detector Prospector Forum
The stuff (Fiat Money) you get for selling it is doing no better. -
As Simon said not much you can do but check all cable, earphone and batteries connections. Let hope that is all it is.

Looks like an USA military cap badge going by it shape W x H and size.

On my kayak paddle I use a Self-adhesive Silicone Tape, Waterproof Silicone Rubber Adhesive Repair Tape, Bonding Rescue Wire Hose Silicone Self Fusing Tape. It is very durable and provides a good gripping surface.

The Australian Threepence (or three pence) is a small silver coin which was used in the Commonwealth of Australia prior to decimalisation. It is also the same size as UK old Threepence, Coin Type from Australia - detailed information. Country Australia Size 16.000 mm So at 15mm could be OK for most coins but for jewellery have a look at some small ear rings that may occur in you location. Hope this helps you decide the best size to have for your use.

The old timers would be happy with that source over 30 ounces to the ton. ๐ค

New Coins For Australia And New Zealand
geof_junk replied to phrunt's topic in Metal Detecting For Coins & Relics
Simon I just got some NZ cash yesterday, I did not get any coins so what does the new NZ coins look like. ๐ -
Wow nearly ยฝ ounce in a day from those teeny, weeny NZ nuggets. I think they weigh more than Simon pesky little bastard pellets... ๐

Back in the days of Whites 6000 and Garrett ADS you did not know how to detect on the gold fields unless you could detect one of those pesky little bastard pellet. Once you could you did not waste your time on them and concentrate on ounce plus nuggets. ๐คฃ

What Is Your Backup Detector?
geof_junk replied to bigtim1973's topic in Metal Detector Advice & Comparisons
My backup is the wife detector when I can get away with it. Some times I have to pick a spot that she dislikes to get her detector, or wait till she had enough exercise with it. ๐ -
Well the next step for you Luke is get the rest of the false teeth. The ones in the photo were found by my wife's deceased brother at a beach in Queensland Australia where he got over 300 gold rings but he did leave me over 50 gold rings to find at the site.

Need Help With My Whites Eagle Spectrum
geof_junk replied to Josh's topic in White's Metal Detectors
Just take "NOTE" in RUBBISH AREAS depth is not importance but ID is the name of the game. When you get a signal lift your coil till you get a sound that is distinct at a low volume that is not iffy (this will reduce/remove ground effect and allow more accurate reading). Take note of the ID reading and dig the target, doing this will build up a human data base (yours) of the signals that are the ones you want. Hope this helps and don't think the best detector wins it's the best user that does. -

She did come up quite pretty after she got her warm tender bath in Hydrochloric acid. ๐

Well your favourite nugget is like your favourite child but here goes. It's not my biggest specimen 3ยฝ Kilo rock that yielded ยฝ Kilo of gold when dollied. It's not my biggest solid nugget that was about 6 Ounces that was sunbaking. It's not my first nugget over an ounce weighing 4 ounces but he came close as the wife was well past her 1 ounce plus for some time, and that stop the ragging I got for that. If I had to pick one it would be this dual Gold and Tungsten specimen about the size of an Aus. 10ยข piece.

Pre-summer & During Summer Prospecting For Gold Nuggets
geof_junk replied to Rob Allison's topic in Detector Prospector Forum
Good to see your dirty gold before they get a respectable wash. Well done and those new to the game should take note of the size of them and concentrate on a suitable coil size to find them.
