  1. 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
  2. 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
  3. 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
  4. Good to see you are back at it and have a pretty neat spot nearby to get back at it on. As you know, there is still more goodies to be had. Good luck! HH jim tn
  5. Two really nice recoveries. Good hunting! My buddy dug a 16 reading the other day and was rewarded with a nice 18k band. HH jim tn
  6. That Barber is a pretty one. Nice batch of old coins over all. You've got one of those old spots that while it may get or be frugal, it will never be hunted out. Good luck! HH jim tn
  7. Some nice finds! Probably not, but at first glance your oval piece looked like a lever to a carbine rifle. HH jim tn
  8. 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
  9. Welcome from Tn. Good luck to you and your sons. It's a great hobby and even better with family members. HH jim tn
  10. 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
  11. Yeah, that would give the ole ticker a extra pitter pat. At least you are part way there! HH jim tn
  12. Welcome from Tennessee. You are now part of a great hobby that's rewards can be measured in many different ways. Enjoy and good luck! HH Jim Tn
  13. 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
  14. That's a nice hunt for sure. The Barber and Largie both look good. Good hunting! HH jim tn
  15. 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
  16. Nice hunting on the 2 golds. Gotta love those tot lots for jewelry of all kinds. HH Jim Tn
  17. Predator Tools, I happen to be using the Little Eagle model currently. Great diggers! HH jim tn
  18. Welcome from W Tn. Back in my working days had business that brought me to Pensacola, a lot. Very nice area. HH jim tn
  19. Nice batch of finds. 2 Barbers are a nice bonus for a good day to be out hunting. HH jim tn
  20. Seated is 'Seated, well, worn or not. I like those low number silver surprises. Typically, they are very worn. Good find. HH Jim Tn
  21. I'm on my 2nd one, and have been hunting with a pace maker for the last 12 years and I hunt almost daily for 3-4 hours. Doc says the exercise and vitamin d is good for me. HH jim tn
