  1. Old stock 800 HPs was a cheap price for those 1sts in one hunt ! I can grid the whole place There's even an old foundation under some of it.Much of it is kinda jungled out , will look at that closer in the spring but the plants +trees there are keepers . 😩 No regrets coyote.
  2. OOOOOOOIE ! So , there was a coin and stamp show in the exhibition hall uptah camp at spinach central . I called an old friend that collects whose dad owned a coin and stamp shop to see if he was going and yup yup he was. I geared up and went over early to detect while waiting . He shows up right on time and told me he was taking me to his house on a tidal lake it was an old parcel (1700s?)with an early local stage road running through it. 😳 So there I am with my detector. He mentions that his brother found a buffalo in the woods there once . Good enough for me ! Where ? and within an hour we dug a 1883 V nickel , a ???? buffalo , an ???? indian head and a 1941 wheatie . No zincs , no pulltabs and just one old canslaw . All firsts for me. Letting them dry before touching/cleaning . I couldn't tell they weren't modern but he could ID and even see some date #s invisible to me ! Born with "the gift" I guess....well he did work in the coin shop on saturdays for many years. I did manage to misplace my headphones , shut it off so he could hear the detector. We went back over our trail through the woods as well as we could but no luck. They were the ML stock ones over 3 years old and the vinyl was all peeling off so boo hoo.πŸ€— Have another BTLL pair anyhoo......and YES I'll be going back ! Might even ask neighbors permission. arrrrrrr ! πŸ΄β€β˜ οΈ I offered all coins to him but he wasn't hearing it. So I bought him a half pound of crab and a pound of haddock to take home and got another half pound of crab to make us each monster super sized 1/4 pounder crab rolls toasted in coconut oil for suppah chummy ! So wicked good yessuh. Dang nice day uptah camp . OH ayuh ! 😎 Sorry folks no pics yet . πŸ€₯ 87* all orb and winds<10 , but in the woods next to a "salt" lake was very nice.
  3. There ya go toad , gettin' froggy in the tubln' river . Not too shabby !πŸ‘
  4. Shrink tubing comes in a version with sealer inside . Might be all you need to seal it back up. Locktite makes a liquid vinyl in a squeeze tube that could work well under the shrink if not using the sealing type or even all by itself ! Good luck with the fix. Those coils aren't cheap ! 😎
  5. I'm a little late to this thread...the view from my porthole. Every ship has to scrape off the barnacles or they hold it back. πŸ₯Έ And to all not barnacles . May the finds be with you.πŸ––

If she's around , watchk out for her goonsk on that spotsk! Some areas here are getting pretty hard too Dr.B . My elbows hate that stuff !πŸ™„
  11. I just read 14 pages . Garrett sure got their publicity money out of that model release statement ! Interest is building to tsunami levels and some are already on the buy list....πŸ‘ WTG ! I think the upgrade part is a great path. I look forward to reading the posts about the rest of it after it's in our dirty little hands. Don't judge a book by the cover. Let's see how she fights in the wild arrrrrrrrrr ! πŸ΄β€β˜ οΈ
  12. Welcome aboard T Living on your own permission is awesome !

  15. They even look comfortable. πŸ‘ THX mn. And the price looks very comfortable too .πŸ€”
  16. I was glad it was the big one that was real !😎 All would still look good on a finger.πŸ––
  17. Wow Dave !🀯 You can post hunts like those anytime ! πŸ‘ If you have pics to go with it , post 'em up ! πŸ₯Έ Thanks for your service , and WTG on being able to do it with a detector !
  18. Way better than thinking it will be trash and then it is trash. πŸ₯Έ If you don't dig , it might as well be trash . Maybe we should post adverts for a psychic detecting partner?πŸ§™β€β™‚οΈ
  19. It cooled off with a front coming through 78* so. Late day hunt just wandering around here up tah camp . Walking too fast and swinging that 6" coil faster (it was getting dark) I found 2 coin spills and a few straggler in 2 hours. 3 quarters , 5 memorials and 10 zincs. 2 bottle caps. 1 scrap piece of aluminum roof all folded up. (Just had to know what sounded so weird and rang up a zincoln # .) Sorry no pics of the gold ring but it should be in the next hole.........πŸ™„But I'll take another quarter if it isn't.
  20. Welcome aboard Saker ! What arrr ya swingin' ?πŸ₯Έ
  21. Welcome aboard O Amazing Oracle ! Before you get started , could you tell me where I will find big (any?) gold ? Hey , I had to ask.🀩 I'll give you a few clues about getting started in return. Lots here already for you to read (but asking questions as they come up will help you learn faster.) The best place to start is Steve's Guides ! Beware though , diggin' up treasure might turn ya into a dirt pirate arrrrrrrrrrr ! 😏
  22. GP925 is still silvarrrrrr and so is the spoon . 2 massive silvers totaling over an ounce on any hunt is not too shabby , yessuh ! A goose that old would probably be way too tough to eat anyway....πŸ€” I'd keep the tag .
