    ⭐ Treasure Hunting Show & Tell - Show us your favourite, oldest, best finds.

    Favourite find has been this gun powder flask 2&1/2 down near diggings with the missus using SDC. Thought it was an old VB can at first due to the green that was on it. Cleaned up ok but missing top bit. I would still like to get the piece I have restored so if anybody knows where I could get...

    1st Time Out

    Hi Geeza, Patience is definitely the key. I tend to be a bit methodical in my approach. I would rather do 400 metres in a day properly than 4 km in a rushed way. I tend to use setting 4 or 5 these days and my unit runs fairly quiet. My mate bought his at the same time and can't get his above...

    1st Time Out

    Hi Geeza, All above comments so true. Keep at it - it will come. The missus and I started with the SDC - had it paid off within the first 12 mths with the gold finds. Awesome simple unit to use. What settings are you using??? Just remember - low and slow is the go!!!

    Not what you want to find digging for colour

    Hi LC, Dug plenty of shell cases but never a live round, was a bit hesitant swinging the pick after finding it. Not sure if a decent swing of the pick on the sweet spot would set it off. I imagine it would????
