They go in the junk bucket. I hope to one day find a silver spoon , I will of course put it in my mouth. It won't help but I'll give it a try,,,maybe a year😎

YES ! Nice one, I predict real...

Well done ! 👍 Great ending, ! well , almost. (She'll probably turn out to be a princess 'er something and reward you with a bag of gold.) Major karma points.🖖

14 grams of gold rings is totally major plunder , but just a normal day on your technique. You got your system down Joe ! 👌 Asking us what to do is probably not nearly as good as just going with your first decision. Keeping a "fresh read" going on your beaches is an important part of this game. Gearing fully up on a double header day would be an issue with me too. But 54 is a long way from 40 no matter what yer a wearin' too...🥶 (I would have said "flip a coin"! ,,,,a gold one would make it an official final answer.) Your "bad" days sound pretty good to me !🤔 Livin' the dream.....

Thimble beats nickel , I'd go "all in" .................

So soon ? You're a "natural" ! 😏

Whuuuuuuuuuuuuuuut ! Gerry would need the Channel Lock jaw upgrade for that one !!

I can't remember the # on the beach or anywhere unless I write it down ,and I don't.... I write down GB #s on my next beach trip. If I remember 🤗 (I'll probably be thinking a lot about keeping warm. LOL .) Maybe I should write down, to write it down........arrrrrrrrrgh

Mannnn , that last page was a hell of a time to run outta likes ! like like like like like like.........good thread ! Gerry Not deciding to sell it until now........you ARE a KING ! Or at least will live like one ! 🖖

You may have not purchased it from me, but maybe the Equinox 1000, you will? It IS a convincing argument !!!! 👌 But only if I can come pick it up in the patch I call Nuggetland .

Talk about MORE COWBELL !!!!! 😳

I like it ! Very handmade looking .

KOD---Keep on digging🖖

Welcome aboard !

Another one.....😳 ARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR ! You're makin' me look bad again. Those must be the best publicity pics you could ever get for a detector dealer ! Now I'm going back in the corner and cry.......🤣 (I didn't get my nox from you !!!! wahhhhhhhhhh)

Rob , no need to respect it.. I call them "Reality My Ass" TV shows. Plot generated by writers that never held a detector....meh ! The actual finds seem less contrived but if planting one is easier for the production it will happen too. The actual treasure is in the advertising .... Yup yup on the "pinch digger" skuh kuh kuh kuh Basically just a roadie. (A senior cast member gets an understudy as a job perk) Later , that guy is swinging the 3030 and giving scripted "detector guru advise" lines Gary fed him... It was funny seeing one of the brothers doing the digging though... "talent" has a shovel only for the camera . But he WAS digging LOL.

Golden Fleece . 🤔

Wool sweater under the raincoat for damp + cold here.. Yup , also wearing one now.

Grundens are just about universal out in the fleet. I'm wearing some now , it's been heavy rain with winds gusting to 30kts here since 9am ....

Nice pirate ring ! Nicer cameo... yup yup.👍

Ya knowwww.I was thinking about what Gary probably gets paid on that show..... If I (or most of us) was him.......🤔 Probably spend a good chunk of it on new gear !!!!Arrrrrrrrrr I bet wherever he hangs his detectors is quite a sight to see ! 😜

Yeah , that was it ! I must not have seen the detector body and just assumed it was his 3030. That coil was a Bobby Dazzler .......all I was looking at LOL😳

I haven't been watching that show regularly but when I first did the few shows I did watch , Gary WAS using an Equinox . The first time I saw the 3030 , he had a GIANT coil on it. And the last show I saw , it was still the 3030. .... clips of the actual detectors are going by quick. The rest of the show,,,,,,,meh. Gary IS the star ,,,,,,isn't he ??????? well , to us anyway. And yes , I agree . There are many here that could probably teach him a thing or two. But he might be portrayed differently on the screen than he is in person. Not putting down his previous finds either . Location location location ,,,,really makes a difference. His relic knowledge seems pretty extensive though so I'm guessing he has some serious years under his detector harness..........possibly some archaeology (sp?) background ? The Nox and 3030 are said to be complimentary , would be nice to see the best of both in just one or the other IMO.

Welcome aboard momokahn ! Your decision will be hard , lots of machines (from vapor ware to new and old(er) to pick from . Reading others postings on the different models here should help narrow it down. Then it will be down to getting a coil over something good.....and good luck to ya ! On detector choice AND targets.

Exactly . Of course it COULD have been a "too late to change it now , over budget" thing ,,but I bet we all remember that name..! Now watch , he's gonna find a giant treasure with it. And later we'll find out the design engineer found something that was left behind by ,,,advanced intelligence.😏 May the force be with him .
