Golddiggerart - Detector finds...

[golddiggerart]

Thought I'd update my finds since I've not posted anything for a while.
Beach has been ever changing, lots of quick scouting detects produced some nice finds, still alot of oldies popping up, gold, silver and loads of coinage.
My honey hole opened up today which saw me popping up rings and coins all in a 3x3metre patch.
Wasn't happy to be leaving deeper targets but the waves were starting to get up to my chest and I didn't feel like getting soaked and having my waders wet.
Lots of eye candy to look over

Todays haul

Until next time happy detecting
Cheers Gda :Y:

That is fantastic mate, great finds and those pennies are getting closer to the 1930.
Well done and nice shots.

Thanks Mackka, the only known 1930 penny was found in today's spot back in the 90s, it was auctioned off for around $10k give or take..
The old bloke who found it used to have to empty his bag of pennies in the car before heading back to detect more.
Can only imagine hauls like that, but I'm happy when I get a good haul.

 

[Mackka]

Never Give Up, there has to be at least one more there surely.

Got out this morning with my mate Greg to clean up what I missed yesterday..
Greg got a bucket lister Gold buckle Ring which made me sooo Jelly.. He did a section that I never got to as I stayed in my patch.
A few coins popped up but I didn't miss much, I headed for the shallows in ankle deep water and got a scratchy 1 - 2 tid and thought meh..
I started digging it and while lifting the scoop I saw a chain drop out so I reached into the hole to pull it out and saw that golden luster.. Mmmm gold 10k
It was a very enjoyable dig, Yulia showed up for a swing and then two other blokes showed up but they kept their distance.

Until next time happy detecting
Cheers Gda :Y:

 

[Jaros]

[Mackka]

A quick swing this morning in a cut I knew would be full of iron targets, the Nox 600 sorts that out good.
Managed to track down an old Silver ring and an 18k gold Italian Ring..

Until next time happy detecting
Cheers Gda :Y:

 

[Goldpick]

Nice pick up on the italian gold, looks like you are walking on water on the pics.

I live in the water, my waders keep me warm. :Y:

 

[golddiggerart]

Back to the cut today and literally the first target was an 18k gold ring..
Picked out the squeaks in between the iron targets and managed a Snake ring, then once I had cleaned up alot of the trash I moved on to a nice gutter.
A few spendies popped up and then a 9k gold.
I'm on a mission to find my number 1 bucket Lister, once I find that I'll more than likely buy a new detector and head to the Gold fields.

Until next time happy detecting
Cheers Gda :Y:

Great finds mate. I am puzzled as to how you locate the treasure, not the tector side but the scoop side. Does the detector have like a screen with a small camera on the skid plate so you know where to put your scoop?

Mackka

That's a good question Mackka
Once I locate a target I find the loudest tone which is the very center of the coil.
I then dig from the edge of the detectors coil down and repeat if the target is deeper.
