    Coil cover...?

    I've got a 3 year old Safari with the stock 10" coil on it. I didn't even know it had a stock coil cover until it fell off yesterday. Any ideas on how to reattach it?

    Gold & Ice!

    I've had a really long streak of unproductive hunts lately. My go to beaches are all sanded it so I went to a spot that has given up a couple of silver coins and one gold ring to me in the past. Long story short, dug a few nickels and lots and lots of pull tabs and screws but hiding among them...

    D.I.N.E. finds

    I got out to the D.I.N.E. hunt this past weekend and had a top 3 of all time hunt for myself. The hunt was at a 1790 farm with 74 acres of land and about 130 or so hunters. It seemed that everybody rushed to the middle of the field at the start of the hunt so I worked the edges and got myself...

    CW Token

    This find is from a couple of weeks ago when we were in the midst of a major heat wave here in RI. It was so hot that I refused to leave the shade of large trees in this well-known and well-hunted, very trashy park. This left me not much area to hunt so I decided to work really slow in the...

    Need Help in RI!

    This is a very long shot. Around noon today, I left my month old Minelab Safari on the side of the road on Vernon St in Warwick, RI. Hard to believe but true. I needed to leave quickly and was thinking about how I needed to get out asap to pick up my son from daycare and leaned the machine up...

    Which Fisher to get?

    Hi folks, I need some help here. I have an F2 which has been great to me but the time is soon coming for an upgrade. The problem is that the F2 cannot handle the mineralization of low tide. I live in RI, by the water and a friend is pulling seated coins like crazy out of the muck at low...

    Need help with an ID on this button.

    This is not a metal detecting find! The benchmark cannot be seen as it is covered up by the cloth still in the shank. I do need help with the ID though. It's Civil War period, I just don't know what it is. Any and all help appreciated!

    My 2 cents worth: ears open, do research, follow hunches

    If you don't want the long-winded story, just drop down to the pic ;) About a year ago my grandfather (now 91 years old) was telling me a family story about how after the Stock Market crash in 1929, my great-grandfather and all the other workers showed up at the mill the next day to find the...
