Mr turtle is happy. Barber dime and ring 15 feet from each other. Ring did not sound good either, was deep. 3 scoops...almost one you give up on. Iffy signal. At first, when it hit I could barely hear it. Thanks to Skullies, I heard it!!! When I dumped scoop out, and swung coil over it, it sounded like a bottle top. I think the sand mixed in there made it sound like that. But, wow, first diamond band. Thanks for looking.

Did some research. I believe it to be only worth 300 bucks. Keepsake, .28 14k. Scrap alone is like 130-150. Still a nice find though. Just not the big one. lol thanks for looking. hh an gl -Joe

Two posters asked what machine. I have been using sov GT lately. I use WOT coil, and Skullies for headphones. Google hipstick. I made one out of parts at local hardware store. Otherwise, I can only hunt for an hour. With that...can hunt no problem 4 hours.
