Thought I'd try a little dry sand hunting at the beach today . There were no cuts and the sand was pretty high so I didn't expect much . The targets were very few and far between . I pretty much dug everything . There was a Park Ranger on the beach and he put a couple of signs up closing off a...

Here's a photo E-mailed to me by a friend that's taken off another forum . The hunter and the beach are not known . Just a little reminder that the sea is not always friendly .

It didn't rain Sunday so I took the dog and my detector and off we went to one of my old standby places . This place has been hit hard , I only had 1 nickel and a few pulltabs and trash after the first 3 hrs. and was feeling quite discouraged . I was actually leaving when I saw this little grove...

Had some errands to run so being as I was going to be burning up that $4.29 a gallon gas I figured I'd better throw the M6 in the van and look for somewhere new to hunt out of the area . I found a school and I spent about 4hrs. there . No grass just a gopher infested , tree lined , dirt area...

:thumbsdown: :barf:

I've been extremely busy lately but I managed to get out for 3 hrs. today . <: Took the Dog and hit one of the neaby spots I've been pounding to death . I decided I'd try a hillside that I really hadn't hunted too much before . I figured it had to be good for at least a silver Rosie . Nope , no...

Here's a cheap way to protect the battery box , off/on switch/stand assembly from getting dirty or scratched up in fair weather .......... take an old sock and put a hole in it so you can plug your phones in . After a few times you will get used to turning the off/on/volume switch without having...

Any chance on adding the Teknetics , Bounty Hunter names to the Fisher name ? Seems like we are starting to get a few more T2 users around here . Possibly First Texas/Fisher in parentheses? I have a hunch we are going to see a lot more members who are going to be swinging the T2's and The Greek...

Accompanied by my Grandson and the family dog I hit this very pounded field behind an old school . This place will never be worked out although it gets tougher and tougher to find anything there .The penny is just a memorial .

Got out today for a 5hr. hunt , the weather was gorgeous . No luck in the silver coin department today but I managed to bag a silver ring , a Wheat and $4.15 in clad . :grin:

Went out for an afternoon hunt yesterday and bagged a 45s Merc , 47s wheat , rabies tag , $3.51 in clad and some sort of tray looking object which may be pewter . It was a pleasant day with a couple of really short showers which only lasted a couple of minutes each .Both the SE and I wore our...

Today I took the M6 with the 6x10 for a four hour spin . I hit an old school that had given me a two silvers and 5 wheats last year but today was just junk , a car and a portion of another . In desperation I drove to a heavily hit park and repounded an area of old trees I had hunted a few times...

I wasn't even going to go out today but I pushed myself to go out for a 2hr. end of the day hunt .I put the 11 DD back on the T2 and the pooch and I headed out for a bit of fetch and dig at an old Baseball field behind a School that is one of my last resort places . At first all I could dig up...

Thought I would sneak away for a couple of hrs. today and run the T2 with the 5 coil once again thru the trashy area where I found my last piece of 2011 silver . Here are the results . ( well we can't all be successfull ) . lol

Probably one of my worst years as far as finds but it was still great to get out when I could . Even though I was a bit under the weather with some kind of stomach bug I was able to get out for 1 3/4 hrs. yesterday to pick up a very few coins and my last piece of silver for the year , not a coin...

Don't you hate it when you get a decent signal under a tree root and you bust your butt getting at it and it turns out to be either junk or a Memorial cent ? >:/ Oh well , at least I've done this so many times I've gotten pretty good at repairing the holes ( repair shown in second picture ) ...

Today we where out there for about 3 hrs. The targets are really getting scarce but I managed to find a few . The pooch had a stellar day of stick fetching and dropping loads lol . I ended up with a 52D Rosie ,56D Wheat , 4 Memorials , 4 Zincolns , 3 screwcaps and a couple of other pieces of...

Anyone checking those Coinstar coin returns ? I always make it a point to whenever I go shopping . I haven't had any luck for awhile but today I got a silver Rosie and a newer Asian coin . :grin:

I was Dog tired after a five hour hunt yesterday at the scraped lot I've been hitting lately . They had scraped the entire lot since my last hunt there and I figured it should be good for at least a couple of silvers WRONG !! All I managed was two wheats , 6 memorials 2 modern tokens , a few...

After a very dissapointing silverless 3 hr. afternoon hunt at Golden Gate Park yesterday , I hit a local pounded spot for 2hrs. today . I needed a silver fix VERY badly . The Explorer SE got in my good graces again by giving me a faint , tingly chirp on a 7 deep , on edge 61D Rosie . <: Not a...
