  1. Stopped lurking and joined. I've done a smattering of detecting for a while. A few small nuggets and interesting trash. Life was always pushing me in other directions. BUT then my fiance said " you've mentioned metal detecting in Nevada. Why don't we go down there while the snow finishes melting here?" "Umm, ok. I get if you don't like it. We can always break off and go do something else. Not everyone is into swinging a stick over the desert." I repeated this several times. And ended up having a great ten days of not finding anything! Well, trash and and a good quartz crystal. But she really enjoyed it. So I bought her an Equinox 800 for her birthday. Then a week later I bought one for myself ( I was impressed. ) To round out my " tools needed". For the last four weeks we have been learning the machine and hunting our yard ( house built in 29 ) and locale lake beach and boat launch on the Salmon river. Didn't mean to be this long winded. And I only type with one thumb. A few of our finds. The axe head was a few years ago. Gb2 and blew my ears out. Any way this is cool site.
  2. Hi my name is pete. I live in cumbria uk . I use a equinox 600 and been metal detecting for just over two years . I have found two hoards among lots of awsome finds look forward to exploring this forum.
  3. After visiting this terrific forum regularly and gaining some valuable insights into all things detecting, I’ve just become a proud new member. I hail from Down Under in South Australia and have been detecting around our local goldfields and across state lines for around 10 years now. Lately though I’ve been mainly relic and coin hunting locally as Covid has severely restricted our ability to freely travel interstate. As a result I have sold my main gold detector (GPX5000) and upgraded my relic arsenal. Currently using the new Nokta Legend. Anyhow I hope to be posting up some Aussie finds when they start rolling in. Cheers all.
  4. Just a howdy, I am new to the forum. I use to detect a lot (since the 70's) but back problems and age slowed me down. I think I will be able to get back into the game this Summer. We had a blizzard here in Sturgis South Dakota, but I had three days prior that I was able to do some detecting in the parks. I cannot stoop up and down as many times as I used to be able to do, so I don't dig iffy signals so much (where the good stuff is!). I will include photos of my finds so far this year from those three days. You can laugh, hey I am 73 and can no longer be offended!
  5. hello I'm Italian, I recently bought a deus2 and I also own a ctx3030, my research is done exclusively in the sea and a bit of beach
  6. No clue what I'm doing here, hope you will excuse my ignorance. I ran a White's proto type UW detector for some years, I gave it back to the friend that loaned it to me, he then loaned me a Nokta simplex that I used for a few months. Well he called that back to raise funds for a 15" coil for his Nox 800 So I got somewhat familiar with Simplex and wound up getting a Nokta Legend pro pack so here I am in a brave new world. I ran the Legend for about a haft an hour at a small park with the 6" coil mostly in park mode, a,g,f and C with the 1.06 update.
  7. Hello! I am just starting out metal detecting. My detector is the Nokta Makro Legend, my first real detector. I live in Southern NH. So far I have done a little detecting on a farm but that permission isn't working out. So I have been going to parks, local hiking trails, the woods. Best find so far was an OX Knob and an Indian Head penny. I will be at BONE 29 in April. Biggest challenge is of course, getting permissions. It seems like I am going to have to do some door knocking. Anyway, shout out to all my NH diggers. Nothing better than digging a hole in NH. lol Anyone want to share a sweet permission, let me know! 🙂
  8. hello everyone, I discovered this beautiful forum I could not resist signing up, I hope to have a good stay😅
  9. I was last here back in 2014 I think . Hope to share some of my adventures scoring gold in the desert . Cheers & Beers Jack
  10. Hi everyone. my name is Ian and I’m from Scotland.I have recently took an interest in gold panning on my local burns,well I say local but they are an hour away. I have some equipment to get me started,but mostly crevice tools.The burns of the area I have interest in have been well panned and sluiced,but mainly the deeper pools. Greed gets the better of folk and they leave big piles of gravel high up on the bank,which is so unnecessary considering There are fish and invertebrates the fish eat,just plain lazy. i have joined this forum to hopefully gain some knowledge and correspondence with like minded folk. ian.
  11. I'm new to the forum - I just joined yesterday. I stumbled in from a Google search about XP pin pointers. I've been using an Equinox 800 for the last 3 years, and just picked up a Deus 2 with a 9" coil. I haven't been out with the Deus 2 yet. I plan on devoting some time to learning the machine in my test garden and then hit some of my favorite sites once the temperature stays above freezing for several days. I hunt mainly old house/former settlement sites along with the occasional park for a change of scenery. You'd be surprised how many small villages there used to be along the railroads and rivers in mid and southern Michigan. Once the forests were all logged off, many faded away or were absorbed by a neighboring larger town, leaving lots of nails, iron junk, and when I'm lucky, the occasional relic or old coin. So far the posts and discussions I've read here appear to be conducted on a more cordial and helpful basis than some other sites I have frequented in the past. Thanks for having me - Regards, Bill
  12. So I came here to register an account today and it said my username was already registered. Apparently I registered here back in 2017 but never got around to posting. I see a lot of familiar names and I really like the technical oriented atmosphere, so been meaning to start participating for a while. Anyway, here I am! Better late than never. 😄
  13. Hello all !! My name is Tony. Been in this great hobby of metal detecting since 1976. Love hunting old coins, tokens, jewelry!!! Currently using a CZ5 and an XP ORX .
  14. Hello, am a metal detectorist / amateur historian for about 15 years. I have used Whites, Nokta Makros and Fisher metal detectors. Main reason I signed on was to share and learn what settings and hints others may have. Will visit those forums here...I wont post pictures of finds here, I do that over on Treasurenet.com on occasion. Good luck fellow hobbyists !
  15. Currently living in Sonora Ca. I’ve been chasing the yellow metal for about 45 years. Now, at 70 it’s getting a little harder but I’ll be at it till the end. I’m more than happy to share what I can and believe it or not, I’m still learning…. (I’m a short bus candidate) currently have a nox 800 that’s testing my patience and a monster 1000 that I’m falling in love with… Tom T

  17. For any "Wheel of Fortune" fans out there - I will be a contestant on tonight's show. During my audition video I spoke about my many hobbies including my 50 years of metal detecting but Pat never asked me about it during my introduction. However, it might have helped get their attention when they were screening applications. I made a lot of mistakes on the show but it was still a lot of fun.
  18. I finally signed up after years of following this forum, I enjoy reading what Steve and the rest of you have to say about this hobby. I look forward to contributing anything that I think may be helpful. I live in Northern California and mostly coin hunt I've recently purchased the Deus 2 after years of using the E Trac and Deus 1. Happy Hunting to all.
  19. Hope to learn from you fellow members. Here you can show of your greatest treasure you had been lucky to find, pls!
  20. Our weather here, at least in Southern BC, Canada has taken a turn for the worse, but I am hoping it is short lived and we can yet again get out for all our detecting and panning adventures!! Anyone else in Central BC on this forum interested in detecting or panning?? Please reply. Regards Brett
