Yaaaahoooooooo ! Ya Got it !👍 Now get back out there and find your gold coin !🍀

bklein So , what did that big lab puppy get named ? maxxkatt Looks like he thinks you should take the next left. The MilkBone warehouse is there.😏

What RR said ^ , that ain't easy work at all . But IF you enjoy it...and you're not too old. It is ! 🖖

That place is a hardware store ! 😳 Now you always have a good spot to detect. 🖖

Welcome aboard Daniel ! Congrats on yer first gold !👍 You can count this forum as your second nugget. Ask questions as you get them.... Did Gerry show you where he gets all those "jawbreakers" ?😉

Nice goin' Toad !👍

Good location , nice finds , clean up with the D2 and do it all again with the Nox1000 and the D3 later ! Arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr show no mercy. !

I found a 4 hole brass button several years ago that I didn't think was very old but have since used it to replace a lost button. I think if I found any that old that were still whole I would want to re use them on a shirt or jacket . I realize I could lose one ,,,but then I could look for it again !!!! Wondering if anyone else has done this? Did the thread break up when you checked it out or was it still strong ? I do leather stitching by hand sometimes and thread that lasted that long would be something that I'd be interested in learning about as much as the button itself !

Energy savings of 4 holes. mighty efficient hunting !!!🍀

Those look very old ! It must be very hard to find a source for them . Do you have a link ? I couldn't find 'em on Amazon , must be an underground source ..... Are there any special holstering requirements? I'm worried it could be problematic having one ready for an emergency . 🤔

Bookmatked ! Nice find ! THX for posting !👍

Nothing like a tiny beach that keeps producing targets ! 👍 I'd put it in weekly rotation.

Customizing a tool to work better in your application 👍 The bottom of my T Rex has smaller holes like that built in ! I've seen some scoops with huge holes too . Variety = everybody happy....well , most everybody anyway...

I love it when a plan comes together..

Good beach ! May I have another !

My friend has one of those for his garden that he brings sometimes and now I use a bigger version. (link below) The notched tip is also sharpened. (The Hori is much lighter on the "Batman Accessory" belt though . But mine is easier to find...) 🙃 GREAT for most lawns , but dry hard clay or rocky soil , not so much. I love it for digging under roots too ! Zero (almost) trace dig holes for targets ~6"/15cm or less on manicured lawn permissions. I use it to make a slit in the turf that I spread apart and excavate with a small plastic trowel onto a piece of heavy plastic . The knife can be used to dig as well. Yes there is pinpointing involved🥸 Easy to dump it all back in the hole by folding the plastic in half push the slit back together. Maybe pack it down with my boot . I have trouble finding where I dug most of the time.🧐 Fiskars https://www.homedepot.com/p/Fiskars-14-in-Big-Grip-Garden-Knife-70796935J/202681617

Welcome aboard poco ! You already struck a rich vein when you chose this forum to join😏

Outback Yank Hmmmmm , sounds like a name someone might adopt after moving there.......... Well , good luck on the hunt no matter how long you stay. Hope ya can post a pic that would make Gerry's jaw hurt just lookin' at it !

C'mon aboard Jeff ! Do you have a primary target or looking for anything the detector finds ?

Hell Yeah !

O. M. G. THAT'S a Cut !😮 (Kinda looks like the homeowners down the beach are probably getting nervous ....)

Nice little piece of engineering. 👍 I'll chance a prediction.... 🤔 That set of diamond earrings it catches will buy you a new Equinox 1000....🤩

I've used them all except for the lavender . Including the net suits . The permethrin dip is awesome. They all work , sort of. Repel40 is my go to , but I have a bottle of the tick spray too , Like I said I use them all,,, Anything is better than nothing in bug war. I swell up like crazy with insect bites. Ticks , not so much but have a tick spoon for easy removal (of the bigger ones),,,agree the tiny deer ticks are the worst , and they are the ones carrying Lyme.... The DEET will definitely melt plastic , I remember the Estwing hammer handles that got slick when I was doing construction back in the 90s. I also found out the hard way it will dissolve the rubber lining in my Grunden$ rain gear ! I wore it over a shirt and pants that was sprayed with deet a few hours earlier , so not just the liquid...😢 You have been warned....arrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgh ! .. I've also found the lack of ticks at the beaches a nice bonus !

If a picture really is worth a thousand words,,,,that one must be ten thousand words , minimum !👍

So , you're saying a typical day out prospecting ! 😉 Lucky calf too , you saved it .....🤕
