    One ring to rule them all!

    Picked up a few coins this arvo on the beach and at mid tide mark out popped this... Thought it was a junker... But when I got home I got the loupe out and it's stamped 9 carat! Weighs in at 6.0grams.

    Anzac test.

    Best of luck to both teams but I have to support the motherland....Aotearoa, It's all trans Tasman rivalry and kiwis and Aussies love to hate each other, but in the Anzac spirit we are all brothers when it comes down to it, good luck kiwis and kangaroos, may we always remember the sacrifice our...

    Tonight's 1 hour hunt

    Popped down to a beach that has a caravan park backing onto it (always full) and thought it would have defiantly been worked over, well I was spot on with my guess, pretty sure they had hit it with a VLF machine with iron discriminator. I took "goldagettin's" whites PI out for a rip, sh1t this...

    On the gold

    Picked up this nice white gold ring with 1 diamond at a highschool I've been hunting, cruising around the seating area near the canteen with the pin pointer as it was too close to the metal seat supports for the detector. Pretty happy with it so as it stands the MD and the pro pointer are well...

By best haul of modern...

    MD-3010ii

    So I got this MD 3010 ii for cheap and am cruising the parks digging up everything I detect (using until I can afford a decent detector). I got tired of the bottle caps and pull tabs so I decided to use the discriminate function. Here the problem, I can eliminate the pull tabs and bottle tops...
