Howdy Folks! You have a board for coinshooting. You have a board for relic hunting. How about a board for jewelry items. Silver and gold jewelry. Maybe even platinum too. How's that idea strike your fancy? Blessings, M-Taliesin

Howdy Folks! My love for metal detecting is pretty high, but not nearly so high as the Rocky Mountains of my Colorado home! The beauty of this place can easily steal a grown man's breath away, and stun the mind with awe. I've been in many a church, temple or other places of worship, but nowhere...

Howdy 2Old! I noticed your post welcoming Indy to the forum and was delighted to see you've arrived. Welcome to the best darn forum anywhere! Welcome to the American Detectorist forum good buddy! Mighty glad to see you! Blessings, M-Taliesin

Howdy Folks! Contrary to anything resembling common sense, I set about on my first snow hunt of 2011 today. I made a video of my outing, and even ventured into Mordachai territory. The temperature was around 23 degrees with a 12 mph wind, making for a windchill somewhere around 10 to 15 degrees...

Howdy Folks! While I'm looking at the snow coming down outside my window, I got to wondering what I'll do with my day. Then I wondered what everybody else does when they can't get out to hunt. I'd go hunting regardless of snow, but can't afford to catch cold or anything before my surgical date...

Howdy Folks! Let's all come together as One! For those members of the American Detectorist forum who have been here before the deluge, and those of us recently arrived, I'd like to put up a few posts to bring everybody together so we are just one big happy family of AD'ers. In that spirit...

Howdy Folks! I got out for about 4 hours today and got my first century hunt of the new year. Along the way, I found 3 rings (one 10k gold!), 1 necklace that I believe to be silver, 110 coins and a variety of oddities. After spending the morning on the forum, my wife and I went to Petco to...

Howdy Folks! Here are a few indications that you may have the detecting bug! ---------------- Is it right for the moderator of a metal detecting forum to caution members to “keep it clean” when they’ve spent the whole day in the dirt? Should introducing a newcomer to metal detecting...

Howdy Folks! I just got word that Ken White, C.E.O. of White's Electronics has posted on the White's forum. Evidently, they're going to put the Misc section back up! Several of us (myself included) wrote directly to Mr. White to complain about changes to that forum. Looks like it had an...

Howdy Folks! I wanted to get out for some serious hunting but got saddled with unexpected errands. Not that I'm complaining considering I received a check I wasn't expecting today. So I ran around paying bills before I could get my coil to the soil. Anyhow, I only hit a couple of places...

Howdy Folks! I posted my latest video offering in the video section of the forum, and I think it is one of the very best I've ever done. I'd be gratified if you'd have a look, and enjoy the tune I put with the video. It speaks of the turmoil of recent weeks that led so many of us here...

Howdy Folks! Here is my very first video offering for the new year. It shows off some of the gold and silver (by no means all) that I was blessed to find in 2010! In addition, you'll see a whole flock of old coins I got along the way. This video covers the period from mid-August 2010 to...

Howdy Folks! For everybody now enjoying geezerdom (over 60 crowd) please step front and center to be recognized! I'll start off... M-Taliesin, 61, detecting for 3 & 1/2 years now. Blessings, M-Taliesin Those under 60 are geezers in training!

Howdy Folks! As you probably know by now, the surgery I was to have on Dec 31st didn't happen. Things went badly askew when they couldn't seem to find a vein to start an I.V. I visited with the surgeon yesterday and he has rescheduled my next surgery attempt for January 25th. It is my hope...

Howdy Mods! Just a quick note to thank you folks for having a really great forum and for being so welcoming to a whole herd of new arrivals. We surely do appreciate your warmth and hospitality. One word of caution might be in order. Many of us, myself included, have a remarkably warped sense...

Howdy Guys and Gals! Now that we are getting settled into these new digs, I just want to remind everybody that these folks who were already here ain't aware how warped our humor is. We might need to break 'em in gradual like. But that ain't what I wanted to tell ya about. Did you know that...

Howdy Folks! I have always been an avid White's user. I've actually bought quite a few machines in less than 4 years I've been doing this hobby. I started with the XLT, then before a year had passed, found enough to afford a new MXT 300. When the brand new V3 came along, why I was the first guy...

Howdy Folks! Here is an oldie but a goodie from back in July of 2009! I started out to scout the Virginia Dale station up north of Fort Collins. It was an old stage stop along the Overland Trail. It serviced stage coaches, wagon trains, and others travelling west toward California. Folks were...
