That's a good effort mate, what sort of detector do you use? I love finding pre decimals.

 

[Pilsner]

Great haul, congrats!
I like the pre-decimals, still need to find them...

 

[axeman]

Buggar me, that's a good haul

[Still Looking]

looks like you both had a great time..makes you wonder how many millions are laying around just waiting for someone to swing a detector over it.?...good haul of pre decimals as well..

I take it you guys are digging plugs to get these?

 

[ANGRE7]

Nah majority were playground finds and/or dirt with no grass. Its almost impossible to cut plugs in SA this time of year

 

[Tassie Daz]

Hey Angre7, what are you swinging? Good haul mate. Keep it up

 

[Tassie Daz]

I'm hoping my new ATX might help me find some of that kind of stuff too.

 

[ANGRE7]

i got a old Xterra 70 with a 3khz coil and garrett pro pointer. My main aim is pre's but thinking i should whack the 18khz DD back on to help me with some moderns and not go so deep!

Hi Angre, Never mind making or taking plugs mate. I went out this afternoon and fairdinkum, the ground up here on the Yorke Peninsula is as hard as. No way I'd get a plug out without about 3" of rain on the ground I was at. Its ok for the fossickers from the wetter states but here???????? Anyway as long as we fill our holes, alls good. Keep swingin' mate.
Oh and by the way, my new ATX has arrived so that's what I've been using. Really happy with it. Its a bit heavier than the Scorpian and the sling that comes with the detector isn't much chop so I went back to my purpose built and sewn sling I made for the Scorpian.
