    Tired Of Being Abused

    After being abused about the color ( Flo Pink ) of my trusty Pro Pointer I changed it to Flo Orange. I only had the pink when I first got the Pro Pointer and didn't want to lose it so I used what I had. They could laugh all they want, at least I didn't lose it in the woods like one of my buddies.

    It Just Isn't My Thing....

    I'm new to MDing and have a great spot for clad but it just doesn't do it for me. It was good to get pratice with my detector and it does have some potential to find jewelry but I much rather hunt a cellar hole for 5 hours or more and find an old coin or two than find a hundred clad coins. Am I...

    Ticks

    I enjoy hunting cellar holes but the bugs and ticks are eating me alive. :hairpulling: I can use bug spray to deter the flying bugs but the ticks are awful, I have to deal with them during hunting season as well but when the foliage has fallen it isn't as bad as it is now with all the new...

    1786 Copper,Mailed Bust Facing Left

    I found one today and like the 1723 Woods Halfpenny I found a couple weeks ago it is in terrible condition. The only way I identified it was to place a sheet of paper over it and rub it with graphite pencil. I did both the front and back and got a good enough impression to make a positive ID...

    A Lot Of Work But It Was Worth It

    I have been pulling some nice finds from an old night spot that has been knocked down and fill in many years ago and is grown over badly. I have been doing well ( with my MXT Pro ) on a couple slopes and noticed when I got a signal, if I scraped the leaves off with my foot I got a clearer...

    Anyone Else Using Them ?

    Does anyone take pruning shears with them when MDing woods and homesteads ? I started to take a small pair of pruning shears with me because it's a pain cutting the roots of trees and plants with my digging tool. Although my digging tool has a sharp serrated cutting edge, I find it a lot easier...

    We All Look At Things Differently

    A friend stopped by to check out some of my recent finds and commented that I shouldn't clean my coins as it diminishes the value. Well he may be correct, BUT, I am not concerned about the value at all as I'm not going to get rich selling any coins. However, what I do want is to enjoy the...

    1723 Woods Half Penny

    I know it's in terrible shape but I am thrilled to find it and able to identify it considering it's poor condition. A gentleman on another site originally headed me in the right direction, but a guy in the UK by the name of Tony Clayton who is an expert in this field was the one that told me it...

    Not Valuable But Interesting Find None the Less

    I found this today in the same place I found the 3 cent piece last week. It's not valuable but an interesting find none the less. It's a Franklin Pierce President coin, found in Cracker Jack boxes in the mid 1930s.

    Three Cent Piece

    I found a silver three cent piece today and was hoping someone can shed some light on what I have without a picture. I took a couple pictures but they are no help. It is 9/16 in diameter with a star on the back ( I think ) . The other side has the three roman numerals with the C around it...

    My MD Stand

    I seen a similar stand on ebay but wanted extra height. I made this stand out of 1/2 CPVC tubing. The MD sits 5off the ground at the lowest point and is what I was looking for....not to high, but high enough to keep it out of the wet grass.

    Just A Few Of My Other Interests

    Carving gunstocks and walking sticks when I have the time. Although I also do checkering , the basket weave pattern is my favorite to work on. Enjoy carving gourds too. Did I mention that I make some wine.... Definitely better make some soupy to go with the wine.

    64 Year Old Newbie From Connecticut

    I got my MXT Pro with DX-1 Pinpointer a couple months ago but with all the snow it doesn't look like it's going to be anytime soon that I will be using it. :frozen: However, I have been doing a lot of reading and research on the unit and upgrading accessories. I did get the Garrett Pro Pointer...
