Hello I'm A Newbie Just Picked Up My First Detector A Equinox 800
jim tn replied to saboken's topic in Meet & Greet
Welcome to a great hobby and treasure forum. I have the Nox 600 and simply hunting in the factory preset modes after a noise cancel and sensitivity of 20 or so will find you plenty of treasure. Practice on coins of various sizes and commonly found trash items and listen to the various tones and what the target I d readings show. Most importantly, simply have fun. Good luck! HH Jim Tn -
Nice Little 14k Ring With The Manticore...
jim tn replied to cuniagau's topic in Metal Detecting For Jewelry
Gold is good, nice find. Yep, with 14 total golds in the last couple of months, I'd say you and the Manticore are learning each other just fine. Good hunting! HH jim tn -
Anytime you get a "piece" of silver, its a good day in my book. And a large cent is a great added bonus. Good hunting! HH Jim Tn

I Had To Take A Few Bullets For What I Got
jim tn replied to F350Platinum's topic in Metal Detecting For Coins & Relics
Some nice finds! Probably not, but at first glance your oval piece looked like a lever to a carbine rifle. HH jim tn- 35 replies

Welcome to a great forum and hobby. After 50+ years with it, I still get a thrill upon seeing silver and gold in the dirt. I, too, swing a Nox 600. Learn it and it will treat you well. Good luck! HH jim tn

Welcome from Tn. Good luck to you and your sons. It's a great hobby and even better with family members. HH jim tn

Good on the Rosie and the compass pedant is still a cool find. For places to hunt, you might check your surrounding towns for golf courses being renovated. I am hunting on my 3rd one in the last four years and all have been good for silver coinage and good jewelry. Anyway, good luck on finding new spots. HH jim tn

Good on the 18k and silvers. My buddy dug a 16 on his 800 the other day and popped a nice 14k band turf hunting. Good hunting! HH jim tn

My Very First Indian Head - Should I Clean It?
jim tn replied to nebulanoodle's topic in Metal Detecting For Coins & Relics
Personally, I like to leave old coins in their natural state, un-cleaned. And never clean a "key date" coin,,,,,period. But a gentle cleaning of the older types of coins is really a personal thing. HH jim tn -
Nice hunting on the 2 golds. Gotta love those tot lots for jewelry of all kinds. HH Jim Tn

Went 2 The Barbers At The Old Farm

Nice batch of finds. 2 Barbers are a nice bonus for a good day to be out hunting. HH jim tn -
Seated is 'Seated, well, worn or not. I like those low number silver surprises. Typically, they are very worn. Good find. HH Jim Tn
