    Re: 10 x 14 SEF coil

    Thank you Jack for the 10 X 12 SEF answer.

    I am sure that eventually I will understand what 'Best Data' and 'Correlate' means as I get to using the V3i more. As of today I have just used two...

  5. Re: Melvin Cogsworth 'Private Detectorist' - Metal detecting fiction for rainy days

    No. I did not write. But I do think they are pretty neat. Whoever does needs a bit of notoriety.

    I have to share something with this forum since I have been only a 'taker' so far. I sure don't...

    Re: Seated Half Dime...

    That was a looong time ago - 7/8/1982. My friend and I had permission to metal detect the property of a long gone girl's college - St. Xavier Academy. Many acres. We were pulling seated and barber...

    Re: Seated Half Dime...

    jkress,

    I remember the first one I found years ago. It was not that deep and when uncovered and the small size was seen I actually thought it was a play coin from some board game. What a great...
  10. Re: Someone in St. Louis Lost wedding band and offers $40.00

    I have no idea. Just the contents of the listing.

  11. Re: Just a ring on your finger will extend the Pro Pointer range

    I also tried it with only the 'thumb portion' of a latex glove. Just slipped the dime into the 'thumb glove' and stuck my thumb in it.

    It works also but when I tried the wedding band method I...

    Re: we need a find of the month contest

    It would have to be something found with a metal detector. That's a given I assume?
    It can't be something found while detecting but where the detector is not the finder.

    The only reason I say...
  14. Re: Someone in St. Louis Lost wedding band and offers $40.00

    That's why I added the part about just looking for the guy's ring yourself. Rent him a detector for half an hour and he'll have holes everywhere. He'll give up for sure :white:usaflag::
