  1. If you look at the finds , you can tell it was a sports field, football helmet screws, aluminum bandage things, spent blanks for the start gun, and i was on the sidlines,
  2. This time I was using my ORX metal detector with the 9" round HF coil and had it set to 50 khz and the VDI I got on the earing was 74and it was on edge. The earing is marked 925
  3. I use the 8" concentric, I dont know if the 10 is deeper what do you think?
  4. I plan on retiring at 62 and I am 59 now cant find work , I am like the old detectors , out dated , now as far as nails go the tracker in this soil gets them 6-7 and bigger ones 8 and pop cans 12 -to 13 inches tell ya I would like to get a nexus over the spot
  5. I do like the old tech, its doing all I need to find Gold and silver and its easy and fast , not to mention its a good pinpointer
  6. found an old shell on the 1862 homestead , I have hunted out this spot until no more signals will come out , so I have resorted to using the all metal mode on the tracker 4 and after digging out some cut nails I got a good target , Now I bet more awaits, the removal of the iron so I will take it to that level.dig every nail out. a coin could be in that mess .
  7. Went out for a short hunt with the cheep bounty Hunter Tracker 4 and found a nice 925 chain& 925 pendant I was going along in all metal and checking in tone and I said this has got to be some junk foil but up comes that glimmering chain, which i cut thru with my digger , it was silver and about 2" deep . I was also impressed with the depth i was getting on the dimes and quarters 4 to 6" inches they have sat in the ground a wile
  8. as dirty as my hands get I was concerned that dirt would work its way into the switch and destroy it . Then I seen my Ear plugs, and got an idea, cut off the part thats like a mushroom and slide it over the switch , and low and behold it worked great , now I can relax
  9. I figured if i found even one nickle i would have done good , but went above my expectations, and found 6 quarters two dimes,and one nickle, and a ring, that I think is stainless and it spins, Not shown are the 5 pop cans i dug out from the depths and some iron , I like to clean out the parks I hunt , I will keep removing the cans until they are gone , then everything will be right on the top when lost I was using the Bounty hunter Tracker 4 a good park detector
  10. O,K todays scrap price of tungsten carbide is 5.50$ to 8.00$ a pound or 34 cent an ounce and i have less that one ounce so 30.cents, Ya I dont like the idea of tungsten rings, I do not find them beutifull , and its a let down when you find them , but most americans are so poor they need to buy tungsten, so sad
  11. Found another Tungsten Ring today ,was using the Bounty hunter Tracker 4 seems like my finds are in 2,s I found two gold teeth, two silver chains, and now two tungsten rings, so I hope when i find Gold I find two
  12. The Bounty Hunter, Tracker 4 did good today, found 2 rings One says 925, But is clearly plated so a bling, and the other is Tungsten Carbide and very heavy, and some nice clad , the bounty hunter is a terrific park machine Hitting coin size targets with authority, to 4 and 5 inches deep and 6" with faint signals , and it makes sure those VDI numbers wont mislead you so you dig what you should
  13. just found this today using the bounty hunter Tracker 4 , its 1st good find a 925 chain, this is now number two but the other was found by sight wile detecting found another Italy 925 necklace and its marked in three places, and this time it was not visible, but buried 2" deep and my bounty hunter Tracker 4 hit this good, Probly because the khz is set at 6.6khz a good silver frequency so it does not take a 1600.00 metal detector to find some good finds, even a 130,00$ detector can find some real good things. I was using its tone mode,with the dial just left of 9 ocklock dang nice detector for the price Attachments

  15. I just got this machine , and Love it , I take it out to look for gold rings in the park, I am amazed at how good it is , its very light weight, it has 3 search modes by using the toggle switch , the all metal in the middle, the all metal can find bread ties like a champ , It also has the disc mode like the compadre but starts out discing iron . I dont use it so much because if a light foil is disced out you will not hear a coin under the foil , or a ring , but its the tone mode that is the cats meow, in tone mode if you have a small foil on the surface or over a good target you will see thru that small foil and hit the target, Kinda like my 1600.00$ tarsacci, I think the 6.6khz is making it do this , but it makes smooth tones, the toggle is very smooth, and it ignors iron very well and small junk foils , and it pinpoints spot on , I feel like I am using a 1000.00 machine , I have to say I really like it .pictures are of my last hunt in a park , I was using tone mode and had the tone dial set just back from 9 oclock, so most things where high tones, the iron you see i dug in all metal , save the bottle cap ,
  16. also in the tot lots it is king,
  17. Mike the old ring pull is before 1965and was in black dirt under an old oak tree, so i think the soil was nutral, I have found aluminum cans almost completly disolved in some acid soils , I think its all in the PH of the soil some of my best coins are from woodsand fields that do not get fertilizer on them
  18. God helped me today . today I found a very nice silver necklace, I was using my XP ORX and going along and was digging out a zinc penny, wich has a VDI number of 86 most of the time but it can range between 79 to 88 and most junk foils like gatorade bottle tops range in the high 30,s to mid 40,s and somtimes i just will not dig them , so after digging the zinc penny, I looked a few feet ahead and seen a glimmer so i looked closer, it looked like a chain and it was. A silver one and very heavy , I I never swung the search coil over it , but when iI Got home I did and the VDI numbers where 42-43-45 its a very strong chance i would have never found it because alot of times I will not dig those numbers because I would just think it was junk , so God made sure I seen it rather than swing over it with the detector . and i did pray he would help me today , and I think he did
  19. I really liked my tarsacci , but had to pay my car inshurance, I miss the detector and want another , but am so broke , I may get the new simplex, just so i can get in the water , but I miss the way it could ignor and see thru small foils , I hope they can find a way to get the price down , I would love to have another
  20. Dirtman, so thats what that thing is , I thought it was a strange battery conector , It was all by itself, not connected to any wire
  21. I was afraid to go to a certain spot , because i was told all who ventured into that spot where met by an angry hag, who kicked them out . but it was raining , and I figured I would try it , and I said if that is true , its going to be loaded, so I turned on the detector. And on my 1st swing a quarter , then another and then a dime , just in a small spot , and this went on thru the hole spot , then the grounds keepers showed up , and they Ignored me , No hag, I was waiting for the hag to show up ,and order me to leave, but somthing kept her away , maybe the rain maybe she was not working that day , so I kept nervously swinging, and the coins kept showing up . for me it was an all time record for one day 19 quarters, and some dimes and nickles all in 6.60$ very good hunt glad i went , cuzz the hag never showed up
  22. Found a nice 925 GS with what looks like a sapphire in it , It still has some dirt packed under the back of the stone , It rang up 80--81 on my ORX also found a 1$ coin and lots of quarters Good hunt .
