The last weeks I travelled a lot and will soon head back to Melbourne. We stayed one week on Fraser Island and it was absolutely great! I tried to clean some of my last finds, but they need some more soaking in olive oil. I saw one guy deep frying his coins in olive oil? :o Thanks GP for your...

Hey there, thanks for your response. I didnt meet any other metal detectors in Cairns or isnt your son in metal detecting Ramjet? Yes I run my detector in the Jewelry mode, do you think I miss some important targets? Of course iron targets could also be very interesting, but I am afraid of...

Hey, I flew last week to Cairns and travelled at Cape Tribulation. The last days I had some time in Cairns and covered a small beach and a playground. The beach and the playground was quite clean, so every third target was a coin. A good feeling! I think the ring is trash, but hey it's my...

Yesterday I went for a swing to Port Melbourne Beach. At first I tried to find something at the low tide mark, but without success. Later when the water level raised again, I detected the at the beach accesses and really found some coins. After this I headed to a park near the beach for another...

Hey, just a short question to some experienced owners of the ACE 250/350. When should I change the batteries of the detector and have you made any bad experience with low battery status?

Another swing out at the beach. This time Brigthon Beach ... I found more or less the same stuff as the first time, just trash. The coins appeared at the end of the beach where I least expected them. So where do you search for coins at the beach? Of course, coins which you pic up after a hot...

G'Day guys, Finally I got my new second hand detector some days ago. I bought a Garrett Euro ACE near Cairns ... maybe from someone of this forum? Anyway at the moment I am staying in Melbourne and will try out some playgrounds and beaches around. I know it's not the best choice for the...

Hey guys, I am also in Melbourne and have some time left in here. Maybe we could meet up sometime. I can't find any button for a private message, so I hope you guys will see this post. Cheers

Thanks for your welcome! I got a second hand detector from gumtree and I hope it will arive soon. Due to my bugdet is limited I got a Garrett Euro ACE, which is the same like the 350. If It is here I will tell you how it is going ... For the start do you have any recommendations where I can...

Hey guys, My name is Roman and I am a German exchange student, studying at Swinburne in Melbourne. Back in Germany I started detecting before two years with a MD 3009. So just some beginner equipment to try what it is like. I did some beach hunting and searched for military stuff form the...
