LOL.... After reading this I can see why the V3i would get a little tedious for you Steve...

Goldmonster 45 kHz White's GMT 48 kHz Be interesting to see a head to head comparison.

Those are some great finds. Do you have a caliper to measure the diameter of the bullet? That will give you the caliber. That and a scale can give you what you need to know, with the weight info it may even narrow it down to the rifle type. Bullet weight is measured in grains by the way.

yup..... Remember this one?.... https://stoutstandards.wordpress.com/2017/04/13/is-it-the-detector-or-is-it-you/ At this point I have probably got the last detectors I will buy ..... I have an Eagle Spectrum that I bought new in 93 ... I have an MXT and a V3i. I have been thinking about selling my Eagle Spectrum though I have 4 coils with it one of which is an 18" Big Foot.......

Another issue with the constant bombardment of EMI is regarding the health risks associated with it. We live in a society that is awash in EMI some benign and some potentially hazardous. As to the level of risk and exactly what levels produce these risks I don't know but it is something to think about. Or not...... We're all gonna end up worm food at some point. Remember the old saying..... Eat right, stay fit.... Die anyway. Have a great day

Always happy to help......

I have to admit, I would not have reported the find......

The V3i can set an individual tone to each VDI # or to blocks of numbers. I open the discrimination and accept everything on the V3i. I use the tones to set my discrimination, in other words I give the range I want to discriminate a 0 tone. I can do the same with the visual discrimination as well. There are advantages to this in that the machine doesn't have to do as much recalculating a target when it simply accepts it compared to the algos of discriminating it out. Here is a post by Rob on findmall ... Zero tones for discrimination.

Aw.... Now your just showing off.......... That's a beauty.... congrats.

You could also go around mumbling about "My Precious" in your best golum impression.....

I love my MXT... even though I seldom get to use it anymore.... The wife has pretty well taken it over... So I just use my V3i..... love it too by the way.

Maybe things are looking up.... Just a slow start to the new year..

I like that.... They buy the cheap detectors and get soon discouraged.... However the only problem I see is this.... These rank amateurs are lacking the digging ethics we have adopted and are probably leaveing unfilled holes.....

Was the ST Chris gold? I found one a couple years ago that was 14k and weighed 7.5 dwt.

The wife and I got out for a little detecting today..... Pretty bleak. She found a dime and a quarter, both clad and I got skunked. So I console myself in that I did my good deed for the day in helping to clean up the little park we detected.....

We had a pretty good start for the year as far as finds quantity but no jewelry or silver coinage. Found a pendant that had me going there for a minute but turned out to be junk. Of course where I live isn't exactly a beach hot spot buy any means and the parks and schools are pretty much what I got.

Still.... A very nice find.

Nice ring... do you know what the stones are?

I always enjoy following the guy on the left in you illustration...... The golfer......

You guys ae makin my head hurt.......

I got a bridge for sale.....................

"Turning beginners into experts"..... That's a pretty tall claim and a bit of a stretch don't ya think?...

UNREAL................. I am speechless.

I can save you a lot of trouble if you just go ahead and send me a TRX........

Here's a site I like for the metal values of coins .... They also have a phone app. And scrap gold and silver prices on the phone app.. Coinflation.com
