Prospectors Guide To Beach Detecting
devilsrenegade replied to Steve Herschbach's topic in Metal Detecting For Jewelry
that gold nugget specimen ring is beautiful ! what a nice find. ? -
Nenad @ phase technical left a comment on my utube channel . He said the audio sounds normal for this detector. thanks to everyone for helping me on this.
-
I live in missoula, don't remember the name, I think he was from Kalispell also, that's where we made the exchange.
-
thank you for uploading that. I'm a newbie at computers and have no skills lol
-
I uploaded a video on utube of the audio on a large aluminum target. I can't figure out how to attach the link, but if you search sd2100 audio signal you will find it. thanks
-
thank you, terrific idea but I have no external speaker yet and it might be hard to record the audio from the headphones with my cell phone.
-
Thanks for the info hard to find videos of the SD 2100 in operation where you can hear the signal what I meant by Clips is the audio tone gets low then turns to a clicking as the coil approaches a large Target then goes back to normal as the coil is moved away. it detects Targets in air and ground testing. I picked it up late this summer and didn't get to play with it much. the guy I got it from said he had found some nuggets with it in Libby Montana. I guess it's probably okay

I recently picked up a used SD 2100 on craigslist for next to nothing. When I power it on, the audio clips then settles down to a stable threshold . It also clips on a strong signal response. Is this normal ? Thank's to all who reply

.23 grams after melting, seems to heavy to be aluminum. It was found in a bedrock crack where the river gets pinched at a place called natural pier. there is a tremendous amount of water flow during high water. also found lots lead. brass. nails, heavy iron etc...

Show Us Your Favorite Ring Find From 2018
devilsrenegade replied to Gerry in Idaho's topic in Metal Detecting For Jewelry
Thank you Gerry, I used your gold ring settings for the xterra 705 and found my first gold ring with a detector in 2017 park hunting in Missoula Mt. -
I had no method to measure the temp, but from my welding experience I'd guess above 1000 degrees
-
thanks for the info, when I tried to flatten it with a hammer again it broke into small fragments. one of those showed a small attraction to the super magnet. all the other fragments had no effect . it's not malleable like lead, it is brittle with sharp edges where it fractured. I'm still not sure what it is.

I guess my first assumption that it was lead was correct. thank you to everyone that replied !
-
I tried the super magnet and could not notice any magnetism. Heated to a low temp and it started to precipitate tiny silvery droplets, let cool and flattened with hammer, it became brittle and broke into 3 pieces. Heated again to melting temp cooled down and this is what I got. Maybe platinum?
-
I'll try it right now, thank you Steve.

I found this nugget in the clark fork river in some exposed bedrock with one of my gold detectors. I always assumed it was lead, but after taking close up photographs, I'm not so sure. Any help identifying it would be appreciated. Thank you

Seeing other people making great finds really motivates me to get out there and do more detecting. Thank's for posting your story on a truly amazing hunt !
