What detector were you using? Good getting that coin out with the iron.

Nice hunt with AT. Double sided tape won't work. I tried. You can use plastic zip ties. On mine use stainless steel wire woven and stainless steel wire to attach it. That's a great job on you 3d print. You have something you could market.

There are different tests you can do. You can find the tests on the internet. It does look unusual. There are universities you can send photos to and they can help identify it, if it's a meteorite or not.

Dilek has a video that said there isn't a release date yet. It could be a little while. She did say there is something new coming in the update. We don't what it is.

I would say it could catch on stuff if you hunt in the woods.

The Legend is working really well. I'm looking forward to the the next update. In my mild ground I am running sensitivity max. I'm using field mode and Gold mode. I'm surprised how smooth gold mode runs. I'm going to have to sell or trade my Equinox 800. I try and make my detectors as light as I can. With the Legend I'm using an Anderson carbon fiber shaft with the the controller in a fanny pack with a hole in the bottom for the cable. I like it. It is much lighter.

Good job! Looks comfortable.

Perfect protection from ticks and other things.

Ok, I haven't heard of Picardin. I looked it up and it better than deet. I'll have to get some of that too.

Don't use permethrin on your skin? It's only for outside of clothes. Use deet on skin.

Nice video. Lots of pull tabs. I'm looking forward to your relic hunt. Have you taken it in the water yet? The water is still cold. Temps have been going up & down in Michigan. I'm trying to talk myself into getting a Deus 2 but am waiting to see what Minelab, Garrett and maybe Fisher comes out with.

I ordered Sawyer permethrin so I'll be all set. Thank you everybody.

I want to know if "Deep Woods Off V Ticks", keep ticks off of you. Permethrin kills ticks but is Deep Woods Off V good enough to keep ticks off of you. There never use to be many ticks in northern Michigan. Now there everywhere.

It comes down to where you live and what you can find.

Great hunt and nice finds.

I have a couple scoops with 5/8" holes and I put a wire screen in them with smaller holes to catch everything.

Dan, a great water hunt. It's nice getting in the water when it's hot out and even nicer getting gold & silver too.

Wood handle is light and cheap. Floats in the water too. Stainless steel handle is heavy. I've never had a carbon fiber handle. I'm sure they are nice. A lot of choice in a sand scoops. I find 3/8" holes is big enough. I have a 6" wide and an 8" wide sand scoop. I don't think I would want an 11" wide scoop.

Great hunt. Nice coins. You are great story teller with great photos.

Nice find. There's probably more there.

Great hunt. The LC looks in great shape.

I know there are some who never want to dig any iron. True there not worth much.

I've dug a lot of iron relics with a Tejon I use to have. It gave a high tone on iron larger than a nail. With the Tejon you can usually tell by the tone that it's iron and can dig it or not. I was complaining awhile back about digital detectors not giving a high tone on iron relics smaller than a horseshoe. I have a degree in Electronic Engineering Technology and have now figured out these digital detectors how to get the iron relics. Take the Legend for example. Nails disc out at 6-7. Bigger iron than a nail has a lower iron id. Large iron like a horseshoe has a higher id. So if I want to dig iron relics with a digital detectors, just dig the iron signals that don't id as a nail lol. So having an Engineering degree I just figured out how to dig iron relics with a digital detector lol. The Equinox and Orx work the same way. Imagine that. So if you're not finding much, dig some iron. You never know what you will find.

Being in n. MI I have to take what I can get lol. I do come up with some old coins but seat coins and large cents are very rare.

A derringer cap gun maybe. It has a small hammer on it. To bad the barrel isn't there. I'll check the hole again for it.
