If a refiner would take just $1000.00 at atime, we would not need to pay tax on it. I wounder if they keep a running total for the year? That is what can get you. I have a oz. of about 22k, and one of 14k, and one mixed of 10,14,and 18k. I think i will just keep it till gold gose to $3000.00 an oz.

Hi Jack, That looks like a good idea. I sometimes use a coin vibberater to work mine down but it is slow. That thing could save alot of time. You might be able to sell some. That is a good toy. Thanks for posting. Flintstone

Hi roustabout, If you want a all around detector to hunt gold and coins, I don,t think you could beat the MXT or MXT PRO, I took steve,s advice and got the MXT when they first came out, and am very happy with it. I only get to hunt gold now and then, and it will do very good on small gold. When i am home, away from any gold, i can take it to the parks and do just as well as the guys that payed over $1000.00,s for there detector. Good luck with what ever you choose, there is alot of good detectors, and some not so good. Flintstone

Thanks Steve, When i use the MXT i lock the ground and about ever 15 mins. i flip back to track and then back to lock. I though the MX5 was like that. I will read the manual. Thanks for the info. Dean

Hi Steve, I know when the MXT first came out, i read your post on how you liked it and you are the one that made up my mind. I still have the MXT and use it most. I get to go to AZ. once a year and hunt for gold, but most of the time i coin hunt. Now you were talking about the 4.some # of the MXT. Whites has come out with the MX5, that is like the MXT PRO, but at about 3.some lb. Have you tryed it yet? I to would like a MXT a little lighter. I have found lots of rings and coins with the MXT but only one small nugget. But still love to be in the hunt. If you have tryed the MX5, and it is like the MXT, let me know and i will get a new detector,but untill i find something as good to me as the MXT i will never change. Thanks Dean

Hi Steve, glad you got a forum that we can talk about thing that our detectors do, without making someone mad. I don,t think anyone don,t like most detectors, but you just get to love the one that you use the most. If we can,t compear them how do we know what we would like to try. I have 7 detectors now and need to sell some but witch one , i like them all. I use my MXT the most. Ok Ok i need to stop, and just say i hope this ends up being the best forum on the net. Dean
