Equinox On The Treasure Coast
afreakofnature replied to afreakofnature's topic in Minelab Equinox Forum
It’s funny I really want to find a reale because it was what got me detecting to begin with. I only get to try 2 weeks out of the year and have tried over the last 8 years! What is funny is finding nuggets is way more lucrative for me then that roughly $30 reale but I just want one and then I’m gonna make a necklace with it surrounded with a bunch of my nuggets 😂. Might have to add the tack now to that necklace 😂😂 -
Equinox On The Treasure Coast
afreakofnature replied to afreakofnature's topic in Minelab Equinox Forum
I went friday and saturday and made the blog with my tack find LOL http://treasurebeachesreport.blogspot.com/2020/02/22320-report-treasure-coin-finds-and.html?m=1 I had to giggle when i found it. It was square with other copper bits around but I giggled cause i find tacks all the time nugget hunting! Just not 1715 wreck tacks 🤣🤣 -
How do people set up their stuff? I have an SPO1 that I used to use with my SDC. I tried it once with my GPZ and still did not like having all the extra gear and wires. The whole point of going wireless is to have just one speaker clipped. When I tried to hook it up I had to go from the WM 12 with a cord to the SP01 plus more cords for an external speaker or headphones. It’s like gearing up with even more stuff when I’m trying to be more minimal and reduce weight and gear to carry. If we all want a lighter detector, we should also ask for a wireless booster with external speaker, and have like the WM 12 in size.

Thanks Floridason! I follow that blog daily! -
The first thing that I noticed was that all of the Nuggets were on the west side of that main wash. I would have to believe that there should be some good nuggets in that wash too. Maybe it was just to deep for the detector. Awesome mapping! (And of course....nugget finding)

Floating Screens / Sieves
afreakofnature replied to Steve Herschbach's topic in Metal Detecting For Jewelry
I’m thinking combine the two concepts. Use the mining sieves but use the foam and zips for the floatation! -

Show Your Expected Gold Targets
afreakofnature replied to MannyScoot's topic in Detector Prospector Forum
The one thing that I don’t like about lead is that sometimes it looks like gold that has quicksilver all over it -

Woozers did you just heat up a coffee can and dump it all in LOL -
Nice to see some reviews coming in!

Nuggetfinder Z Coils For GPZ 7000
afreakofnature replied to Northeast's topic in Minelab Metal Detectors
New pic! Looks like it is a 12" Fingers crossed for the hope of other sizes, like 10 or 8! With that pressure valve I am now wondering if they might not be waterproof. -
I’m curious how many people are willing to spend $8000 again? Unless minelab is offering some type of trade-in program LOL

Has Anyone Else Been Harassed Whilst Prospecting?
afreakofnature replied to Erik Oostra's topic in Detector Prospector Forum
I had a lady come up to me and asked me what I was doing when I was on the beach a couple years ago. I told her I was metal detecting and then she got up tight and asked me if that would hurt all of us at the beach. 🤦♂️ I had an LOL moment -
That’s hilarious! And pretty awesome LOL

The announcement was also on their Facebook page. I have also emailed them and asked to be put on a mailing list for updates on this if they have one. -

Perhaps they actually worked with Minelab so no dongle needed. -
Gold Is Not Worth A $2 Bill.
afreakofnature replied to geof_junk's topic in Detector Prospector Forum
2 dollar bills are rarely used. We tried coins multiple times, just hasn't taken off. Nobody wants to carry a change purse since dollars still have some value here. -
Opinions On Performance: Xqed, Xzed, Xgpx
afreakofnature replied to mn90403's topic in Detector Prospector Forum
2300 x coil would be interesting if it was waterproof -
That is super helpful to know! Thanks for sharing this knowledge and experiences!

We need more Mitchels! 🤣. Just teasing. I think you might need to do more research and computation of that research. Just to give an idea, i probably have 10-15 references for one small area, put them together, delineate the information, pre mark my maps (GPS) and then pound out the area. I worked one area all summer. Probably no bigger than a 1/4 section. If you take Gerry’s lessons you learn that pretty quickly. I watched and learned. People were wandering all over the place. The folks who stayed low and went slow found the gold in areas that were surely hit before, even bulldozed.

Its Russia, Minelab is not going to go after him. He could offer it for free and jack up the cost of the coil 😆 Minelab is not going to put anything out or it would have done so already. Time to just make it.
