Bob Ross!!!!!!!!! Loved that guy as a kid, I think that's where I got my inspiration for art and drawing. Don't forget the clouds Ha Ha . That's an awesome find Kac!!! Man does that bring back a lot of memories!!! Thanks for posting that awesome find.

I befriend a lot machine operators and detect right along side of the dozers. most think its pretty cool when you find something. Sad part is, That this is the third large track of property (100+ Acres) to be converted into housing developments in the last year and a half, within 3 miles of my house. History is very important, please pass this on to everyone you know.

The more I hold it the more magical it seems, No wonder why gold has fascinated us humans for thousands of years.  It truly is a strange feeling when finding something like that, It kinda takes you back to your childhood dreams of finding pirate treasure. Your heart starts pounding and hands shaking like you kissed your first girl. It really is a fantastic whirlwind of emotion. To answer your question Rick I was using my multi kruzer in 19 khz with a 9 inch concentric. 

Shout out to Kac thanks for the lucky detector charm, I think it worked Ha Ha

Hey nice Zincolns Ha Ha. Great ring and the diamonds are a big plus. going slow pays off, most guys are looking to cash out quickly. You might think about moving, Your going to have that state picked clean in no time 🤔😂😂

Looks like a worlds fair bracelet charm. You guy's had one in 1895. (An International Exhibition in Hobart). Maybe some visitors brought it over as a gift from New York. I might be wrong but it's my best guess without better detail. Cool find, I love the stuff that makes you wonder and your brain hurt.

I didn't think I would find coin like that in my entire life and at that site. Sadly the old place is slated for demo and will be replace with the typical modern  crap houses. I was surprised at the price of the coin also, seems to be worth only gold weight. But man it sure is a pretty little coin. Maybe today I'll find its big brother Ha Ha Ha.

Hard to tell but looks like you found some window sash chain, Possibly brass? Gold ring is cool too Ha Ha. Man I hate the heat, God bless you for the dedication!!!

Kac, Glad to hear you got a few orders for the digger. I'm pretty sure those people will be very impressed with it. It's not very often you find a great product. Good luck in the future!!! I'll be contacting you with an order for a taller version.

Great job GB, I don't find to many nickles these days, but I find plenty of the trash Zincolns. It's been a bunch of years since my last buffalo. Digging the beaver tails makes you hate yourself until you find something golden, Then you forget all the crappy targets you dig. On a bad day I dig two pounds of aluminum. Overall I think you had a great day out.

You won't be up sh**s creek here Canoe. Glad you joined in with us. Can't wait to see some of your finds and help you with your questions.

Welcome Optix, You dropped in on the best minelab site on the old interweb. If you need advice or answers your in the right spot. I'm looking forward to hearing about your adventures. Good luck !!!

 Cricket Tape works really well.

Try using some pet grade window screen (larger holes than normal), Cut to size and tape on. Works like a charm. Or get yourself an aviators helmet Ha Ha

Welcome Java, You have found a great place to be, Filled with great people and great information. We all here at DP love to share tricks, techniques and our finds. I wish you great luck on your detecting adventures.

Great to have you here on DP Mike, I hope to see some of your dirt treasure posted soon. Oh and the girls will out detect all of us, so be prepared to take some heat. Glad your here my friend.

Welcome Caretaker, Glad you can share some of your knowledge with us DP members. I might have a few bottle questions for you in the future.

I'm not a line guy so I usually let other guys do the research, and make my decision after the smoke clears. But I always find myself drifting back to my older stuff and wondering why I bought some of the impulse buys ( bad thing to do). Bottom line is we all think that something might be better, when its really not. Fancy racing stripes do not make a race car. 9 times out of 10 its the place your are hunting and not the machine. No silver, No gold, No stuff, No find with any machine!!   I do wish Garret well with the apex and hope its a home run. Any Mfg that's still competing in the market is a great thing for all of us. Multiple detector choices are a wonderful option for us new toy driven enthusiast.

I dig at least 3 or 4 flattened beer and soda cans at 12 inches every time I go out. Don't get discouraged, its part of the excitement!!!. If you want a really great hand digger PM our member Kac, He makes one of the best I have ever come across. It's tempered steel and almost as light as plastic. Please show us the good and the bad, its all part of the game. Good luck on your future hunts!!!!

Welcome back to the fun Rick. Its just like riding a bike, you  never forget. Glad you joined in with us, you won't be disappointed. 

There's a hole in my pocket dear Liza, dear Liza a hole. I believe you have come across the Pirate booty of the 20th century. I'm thinking you might be in a good spot to find the jewelry. Do your hips hurt from all the coin weight???? Good for you my friend!!!!

your collection looks like mine, If I could just fill one with rings I'd be in business.

Quarters I love Quarters!!!! They help pay for the adventure. I have snagged about 6 to 10 every trip out. When the days get rough you will wish you could find some George coinage Ha Ha 

Damn I hate mosquitoes, Horrible blood suckers🤕

Glad you have jumped on the  DP train. There are lots and lots of great people and information here. Just shoot out some questions and everyone here will point you in the right direction, whether coin hunting or prospecting you will get some great ideas on how to pursue the tools of the trade. 

I haven't been to Yuma in a long time and imagine its still hot and dry, nice place to live though.
