Just went out for a walk with the dog around the sports oval before anything special happens and I have a great score. $4 in change and two rings. This is the best one though with engravings inside.

Very easy question, 'Should I go?" I have been invited to go west central QLD to a private property that has an old gold mine onsite for a weekend. I asked what they are doing and the invite is to take a detector or a pan as its a few hundred acres and has 3 creeks running in it and lots of...

Well talk about skipityspliyipitywahoo for me. I have been counting down the days for the markets to come back on and yesterday, they were not just on, but FULL. Needless to say I woke up at the crack of dawn to go down and swing away....... to be met by the local council :( But he was very...

Hey gang am at Cypress / Gold coast highway for a week. Have my gear ny tips where to go ?

Hey all, I had a spare hour or two today so I went to a local park just to coin shoot around. I wasn't hoping for much as I know this park gets fished by another person but I went anyways. After being there, two mums and kids asking for a demo and me swinging, I finally found some coins. Then on...

Hey gang, found my first 3 pence - nothing fancy but can anyone id the other coin in the pics for me ? Was 10 inches in hard dirt so was a odd find for myself and my G250 to ping on.

Well tomorrow I go coin shooting to a spot I love and dread. Its a market place beside the beach so I get to do a nice early beach walk followed by a walk in the grassy area where the stalls were. Downside is the grass is some mutant crab grass and so thick and evil that I swear the council or...

Well took the little boy (5yr) out for a walk through the local marina where there is a grassy knoll stage area for everyone to sit on etc. Just setup and showed the little guy how to pro pointer works as he was in charge of it. He was fired up like a cracker in a Chinese new year and to top it...

Thanks to those who pointed me in the right direction for online shopping detector sites. I have just had this morning a new package arrive (YAY - so excited I almost wee'd myself) from Detect a Den. Was a bit worried I may not get it as its a bit common for my things to go walking off in the...

Hey gang. Like the advice, but can anyone advise a good online store that I can use a credit card over the phone or web. I just want to grab a coil cover and a good wide sand scooper bucket shovel thing for my beach walks. I have hit the coil on the odd rock or wire in the sand and it has me...

Hi gang, I tried to do some park coin / anything shooting today and found that the earth here is insanely hard. To the point I bent the tip of my little spade and on a separate dig, bent the handle. (Cheap bunnings job) Whats worse is I have to put a lot of effort into digging holes for things...

Easy Qs for the morning; I am using a Garrett Ace 250 MD to run around beaches and so far been great, no one has complained and the sunshine is always good. Friends have asked me to join them on a trip to the local Boyne River to check out around the mouth of the Awoonga damn and downstream...

Hi, Was flicking through Google and came across this forum on my search for metal detecting. I am just tinkering with a garret ace 250 at the local beach and parks as I never see any one here doing it. Saw a lot in Gold Coast and bne when I lived down there and never thought of doing it until I...
