How did you go with this?

Hi, I been out there, around the back of the tailings piles along the river very difficult unless you have a good machine and know how to use it. I plan to pan there when it heats up

Hi there, what area are you in?

I'm very confident with my 705 and have found other diamond rings and silver chains buried deep, I'd be happy to travel that far to do a good deed if somebody flew me down, I could pay my accommodation and find a place to stay for a week or so.. But surely there is somebody closer?

Hrmmmmm, mother has some large opals in really old silver. Have to get her to check them out, she didn't like the item as it was so large it looked fake..

No point anyone stealing it cause the second it's activated your details are going to come up and I'd imagine there would be hefty penalties for removeing or tampering with an epirb

Awesome budget or light weight machine

I think the best way to cut out most of the disruptions is to use your sensitivity setting kind of like a depth gauge and this has made me so much better/happier when shooting coins. With my XTERRA 705 If you are in a park you can't dig deep so it is of no use to me to know what is any deeper...

Keep chatting guys, I got some crap stones at lowmead yesterday and want work out if there Trash or Treasure :)

Oh ok, I don't know anything about coins or gems, they are all new to me at the moment

Yeah copper wouldn't put up much of a fight but that 50c looks pretty serious, if it has no bent or rolled edges maybe it was ground?

A coin is very hard.. I know this from witnessing a 5 10 20 50 $1 and $2 coins being drilled with about a 2mm drill and where tied along a 100lb mono fishing line then buried as a test patch in a garden, I thought it would go nicely through the $1 and $2 like brass but no it was very hard to my...

Not sure, maybe a way to stop 2 kids fighting over it lol! but to this day almost every sprint car and midget in Australian speedway has a 10c coin ground down and welded in as an end cap on the rear crash bar..

I reckon there would be a hell lot of 505's still in store boxes, Good thing about them they take all 3 coil frequencies. I nearly got one at time of buying the 705 but paid the $200 more to get Prospecting and Auto Balance feature's.

There's a cavity for the speaker and normally they are magnetic and grit jams up some speakers
