Free Metal Detecting Tips

How Deep Will The Minelab Sovereign Go?
Author: Internet Tip
Although I know the Sov will do 10" on a dime and I have no doubt that you are telling it exactly the way you see it, two things about your story make me a little dubious. 1.If it's certain that the ground had never been disturbed, then it's highly unlikely that a '67 could have been that deep, especially when it's nearby companions were at 3-4". 2.You say it sounded the same as the others before you dug. It shouldn't have. The pitch should have been the same, but the strength of the signal should have been much lower. There are several phenomena you have to be careful of when extracting a coin from a hole to determine it's exact depth. I've had many a coin's dissapear after breaking the ground. There are two major reasons thishappens. The coin, of course, doesn't really disappear. What happens is, it either sticks to the side of the hole on edge, drastically reducing or eliminating the signal, or it drops deep enough into the hole to be out of range. When it disappears, remove ALL loose dirt from the hole plus just a tad more at the bottom (if the hole isn't deep enough for this problem, then it's stuck in the side). If that doesn't get it, scrape the sides of the hole all the way around a couple of times to get it off the side. On fainter, repeatable good signals, I generally dig very carefully to keep either of these things from happening. I like to know how deep my machine is going for good coins. My depth test for the Sov was on an island park where the soil was always saturated near the shore. This kept the topsoil-like pudding at times, allowing coins to sink faster than normal. I got pulltabs there at 6 and 7 inches. When I finally found the very faint repeatable signal I was looking for, I carefully dug to expose the coin. I wanted to see its imprint in the undisturbed soil underneath it when I removed it (I've seen this lots of times, but usually in the plug or the edge of the hole). When I got to the '37 Merc, I was up to my elbow in the hole. I didn't have a ruler, but it measures 14-15" from my elbow to the second joint of my fingers. That's where the dime was. At the very least, IKNOW it was over 12". Remember, there was also very good soil moisture on this dig. That's important for good depth, too. For signals that still read good after digging 12 inches and not finding it, WIDEN THE HOLE. There are several phenomena that can cause you to be off center enough to miss the target.

I'll never forget the first time I swung a metal detector and it BEEPED! I dug up my treasure and I held that shiny circle of metal in my hand--a quarter!! Wow! A whole twenty-five cents! Since then I have treasured hunted all over the world. This site has info on treasure hunting southeast and hopefully anything else you need to know about metal detecting, treasure hunting, and finding gold!

Good luck!

The Ley Lines of a Semi-Retired Drainage System
Author: Holmes Charnley
There seems to be at times, a fine line between enthusiasm and frenzied delight, and with Miranda Krestovnikoff, who presents BBC 2’s Hidden Treasure, that line is all too frequently blurred.

Still, perhaps I’m being a little too hard on the poor girl. After all, it’s her enthusiasm that caused me to go out the other day and buy a metal detector. I’d like to think that I’m the only one to have done this, at least in my town, but regrettably, I suspect I’m in the majority…

After all, I went into one of the local shops on the day of purchase, asking if they did indeed sell metal detectors, and this young man serving behind the counter immediately asked if I’d been watching BBC 2 recently. I didn’t know how to take this. Now obviously, he’d sussed me but … well, was that good manners on his part, or just cheeky perception?

I mean, had I gone into my local branch of M & S and been caught perusing the boxer shorts, I think I’d have taken umbrage, had a shop assistant inquired if I’d recently had a case of the runs. I digress. Suffice to say, I felt uncomfortable, embarrassed, found out, with my BBC 2 viewing detected so instantly.

Anyway, my fiancée and I finally located one of these machines in one of the nearby catalogue stores…which meant that once we had got it home, we needed to drive off out to one of the nearby catalogue stores to buy some batteries, amidst much muttering.

Still, once this thing was up and running, the fun we had around the house was fantastic. The brass fireplace was indeed metal, so was a 2p casually dropped on the carpet, then hunted down, with much squealing from both man and machine.

And then there was the garden of course. I expertly discovered the ley lines that relate to the drainage system. This should have been done privately.

However, we live in a quiet, semi-retired, semi-detached area, and my tracking the drainage caused the district net curtains to act as if there was a tornado approaching.

We rent the house we currently live in and our landlord is slow when it comes to getting things done, so, in a way, the metal detector really came into its own when I decided to phone our landlord. There’s a ladder on our roof that has been there all year and it’s been annoying me, so I thought I’d have him on toast. The phone call went like this.

“Hello, Bob, it’s Holmes here. I bought a metal detector today and discovered there’s a ladder on the roof. This could attract burglars, surely.”

There was such a pause at the other end of the line. I could hear confused steam coming from his ears as he got this mental image of my scaling the house with a metal detector.

The ladder is still there. All that’s changed is the landlord now seems incredibly wary of me when he collects the rent each month…

Now, where did I put the washing machine?
