Hi T-Netters !


This might be the most sensational find that I ever made !?

It is a bronze mould for viking age pendants, most likely of gold or silver.




Enjoy !

Kind of random question:

Did you use the tesoro Vaquero to find this...?

I have the Vaquero narrowed down to one of my 2 or 3 choices for my first detector...have heard nothing but outstanding things about it....

congrats on the find

excellent..only confirms that me being non-impulsive and taking time to research my first detector paid off...can't way to get my 'V' !
Congrats again on the great find...

BTW I hear all the signals sound the same on the Cowboy....
or at least similar...once you learn the machine are you able to tell when the target is something greater than tabs/trash...or is it truly a ding and dig?
