Thank YOU Steve !

I'm relatively new here but it is starting to feel like "family" .

Anything I can do to help anytime..... 

It's funny , after posting that last night I got 3 live ones this early am. 

 All had the same email provider (not .ru ) and tried to insert sales links in their profile , might have been only one spammer trying 3 times ? LOL  

 Those are awesome looking rings. Silver one is interesting .

Too bad I don't clean up that well ! 🤪

Thx , I'll check it out  ! 🥸

🖖

The depositors are kinda scarce right now uptah camp .

There will be more with the hotter weather coming soon.👍 

Very impressive work for a newb !

You might be a "natural" ?

What would you be spending that propane money on if you weren't having fun doing these ? 

Steve

They're getting trickier !🤔

Links to a couple of sites we use on my forums to weed out the scammers.

(which is down to almost none now that we took your lead and deleted the zero posters.

THX for the idea ! )

We now require 1 post within a month and 10 posts before allowing links.  

All newbs have to be approved before posting access is granted.

(I think the 10 post minimum was the most effective part of our effort.) 

Also , The vast majority of our spammers have (had) an email ending in .ru  

I have a member that was traveling in Russia and I kept allowing them in , thinking he was recruiting new members........not anymore..I  purged their sorry butts.     I just had a thought that their internet  might be restricted right now too ?

The first is an IP lookup that gives several locations . I found that I developed a feel for this after seeing patterns and repeated providers over the first few months.

This one my IT girl found and uses. I used it only once but she said she liked it.

That's a lot of beaches .

Too bad about the ring , it's a honker.🥸

Just looking at your hunt finds posts wears me out !🤔

Keep posting though , I can use the exercise and the workouts are building up my scrolling finger. 🥸 

But seriously , It's hard to tell the difference between your Manti-hunt and a GPX one.  It seems you have the new box figured out pretty good.  👍 

Nice first yellah !👍

So now....When are you going back ?

Live long and prospect .🖖

Welcome aboard !

You just hit the mother lode of info on detecting/prospecting.

Here are a lot of answers before you ask them......Guideland

Time for the spaghetti harvest and it's early again !

Must be April Fool's Day

Thx for the chuckle geof.😏

Nice spot for a permission.👍

You're adding to the owner's collection in a way not soon forgotten..

Which could easily turn into permissions for half a county like 350 has 🤩

If you feel it does not cost a lot and are willing to risk losing it on a possible scam, you are certainly welcome to do so , and we all would love to see it perform as advertised ! Can you get a live demonstration of one before you buy or is a video and the advertising literature all that's available?  Claims of detecting depths over a meter appear with some regularity here on the forums but have never turned out to be true.   

The cautionary buyer beware responses you have received here are from some of the best detectorists in the world.  I'm sure the major detector companies have Steve's cell number on speed dial .   

I came here three years ago hoping to learn from the best there is and I am not disappointed  .  

Good luck in whatever path you choose.

There are some great deals on a GPX right now..... 

👍 Nice haul . I like the twisted design on the band .

I never met Monte but I could tell a lot about him from the posts he made.

Sorry I won't get a chance to meet him now and will miss his input .

RIP Monte and you will still live here through your posts.

An interesting group of finds no doubt !🧐

I'd definitely be checking that spot again , and more than once .

That looks right geof !

A counterfeit clad quarter , a very rare find  !  

Possibly a forum first ?

I give it two thumbs up !👍👍

Your detective work gets three 👍👍👍

I nominate Gold Seeker as our go to expert on personal hygiene items !👍

I didn't have a clue.....😳

The white stuff is almost gone here. Raining as I type.

I've had thawed ground here for a couple of weeks.

So far 48 cents and a sterling pendant ~1 gram and a lot of junk with an 800.

👍   It's a ring ! Broken or not.

Nice batch of finds . And a half dollar that had your name on it .

That was a good day .

Nice  925 WTG ! 

Well , that's a familiar sight ! 🥸

👍

Sorry for the late response., just saw your reply,. Had a mercury 50 on a 16' Boston Whaler to fish out of till a few years ago.

The different merc reference was about dimes ..

Live long and prospect....🖖

Welcome to the forums . You chose wisely.

Nice ring.  That Xterra is treating you well....
