Good luck mate! Looking forward to reading your report on all those nuggies that you find! :Y:

I am also hoping to get up there for the AGM & stay for three or four nights! :)

Oh Diggit, you're wicked you are! LOL

As a few have mentioned, On the occasions when I hunt at Soccer grounds, i will only detect around the side lines & where spectators watch from & never on the playing surfaces. I have honed my retrieval skills to cause almost no noticeable evidence that i had dug there. I do however pick my...

That chain looks rather weak! a strong wind and that would come straight off I reckon! ;)

Welcome Boydy! I'm up in the Southern Highlands and keen to head out to Tuena again soon so if your organizing a trip up there be sure to post it here on the forum. I think you will be surprised how many folk will want to tag along! :) :cool:

Hi Guys, Well it's been on my bucket list of things that I wanted to find & today finally got one! A trading token namely a: R.Parker Ironmonger penny token (circa 1857) from Geelong Victoria! Amazingly it was found in a tiny park in the Southern Highlands NSW. As you can see its a bit rough...

I use an AT Pro and love it. Have found some great stuff with it! Its fully waterproof so you can keep on hunting when it starts raining, good on the beach as it ground balances pretty well. If your keen you can go underwater up to 10 feet providing you upgrade the headphones. See my other...

G'day Chuky boy & welcome. I think the wife will be just fine with the GPX when you start bringing her home some of the Yella stuff! :cool:

Welcome SC75, Good luck with the hunt for the gold stuff. If you feel like your son is losing interest get down to a local soccer field and run the detector along the side line, he'll be sure to pick up a couple of goldies ($1 & $2 coins).

Welcome AussieFarmer, you'll fit right in here with those interests mate!

I use the Garrett camo finds pouch. It has its own light weight belt, the main pocket for the junk & I carry the Garrett digging tool wedged in there. It also has a smaller inner pocket for the good stuff. My pro pointer attaches to the front of the pouch on the webbing provided. I've had it 2...

I found this beauty along with 35 other pennies in one hole (12 were cartwheels) the others being later George III & George IV examples. Most were pretty roached but I managed to clean a couple up. I can tell you, I was doing the "happy dance" after these came out of the ground!! 8) Found late...

Thanks for the warm welcome, I will throw a couple of pics of my oldest coin find to date.

As one old f..t to another.. Welcome Upanaway! ;)

Hi all, I've been lurking for only a short while (honest!) and thought this forum looks like a great resource for someone like myself who is just starting out in the prospecting/gemstone hunting hobby. I've been involved for a couple of years with metal detecting where the target has been...
