    Where To Get Whites Coils

    Looks like I might need to get a new D2 coil for my V3i. The darn plastic casing wire by the connector has cracked & I fear my coil may be going. Very glad I still have the 6x10 Eclipse as a backup. I reached out to Centerville Electronics, but they do not repair the connectors. Any ideas who...

    3 Little Indians & Other Goodies

    Got out yesterday to an old virgin site of mine I've pounded on and off for years. Used my 6x10 DD to see what I might have missed. Spent several hrs there re-gridding the site & was rewarded with the Flintlock hammer, pc of a shoe buckle and an odd pc that looks like a shell casing, and a...

    Big Button Saturday

    Got out with Frank yesterday for an all-day hunt. Was up & 4am and on the road to Frank's by 5:15am. Think I got home about 6:30pm & out like a light by 8:30 thanks to Advil PM. Lots of ground was covered but the 1st site of the day was the only one that produced. Found these 3 big cloakers...

    other hobbies

    Those are cool hobbies guys. I like the down the barrel shots. I've had a ton of different hobbies in my life. One of my favorites was being a Confederate CW Re-Enactor for 12 years before kids. I'd say this pic was taken about 1996. I'm the 1st one kneeling on the left by our flag. This...

    Got A Copper Today!

    Went back to the site where I found the Pres. Adams cufflinks. I gridded the entire site & was rewarded with what looks like a CT as well as this beautiful ball button. Luckily did not see any bears today or any porcupines. Any ideas on the ball button for age? Was this a military button?

    Whites Metal Detectors

    Anyone know where to buy Whites Accessories other than thru Centreville Electronics? Garrett's website does not even list anything from Whites. Seems Garrett bought Whites & then has let that Brand die off.

    Hurricane Henri

    Whelp looks like I'm in for a direct hit. Glad I got my 2-100gal tanks topped off 2 weeks ago. Power is likely to be out for at least a week. Property is all secured down, now the wait begins. Stay safe folks!

    Porcupine In Goshen

    Was out with Frank last Friday in Goshen on the side of a dirt road drinking from a puddle after the rains. Frank went to get a picture as it climbed a tree for safety. Frank did not get hit, lol. Anyone else see them?

    Nabbed A Few Coins Today

    Got out for a bit this afternoon. Was a beautiful day to be out in the woods. Ground is kind of dry & the ticks are out and hungry. I've hit this site on and off for the past 9 years. The past few years it's been a bust but today the site gave up a few goodies, which I attribute to all the...
