MOJO in your MOJAVE

[tucando]

I have found the Mojave with the 4" coil is deadly in trashed out areas under bleachers or along play areas where the pavement meets the turf. Working along the edge of basketball courts right along the edge is amazing on how much good stuff you can pull out.

The normal is lots of tin foil and other trashy targets, but the little 4" really does a great job on coins and best of all is the small jewelry and rings!
Good Hunting!

Shoot I've been having a ball picking out good targets using the 7 inch search coil on the Mojave, I bet the 4 inch search coil does a really great job!

I wonder how the 7" Precision coil would work on the DeLeon?

I'd bet it's a perfect coil for DeLeon.

Today my Tesoro Mojave Injun tracked down a nice size silver coin spill, some more silver coins and a 1892 5 dollar gold coin. I love my Mojave! It has more than paid for itself and it's super fun to use. It hits really hard on gold and nickels. I will be posting pictures later on today in the 'Today Finds' forum.

Just amazing..! Too much treasure near you...

Congratulation Tabman! You are probable the first gold coin finder with a MOJAVE. There is a lot more out there and the 12KHZ is a great frequency on the Yellow stuff !

I am wondering how deep this detector will go. Good hunting and good luck.

I'll be talking with Allen at Tesoro, Monday. I am very disappointed with my 5.75 coil. Worked one day for about an hour. I've tried everything, all it does is buzz and all over the place. I wanna talk trade, with me taking a little loss. Worth a try.

 

[Vern2]

Tabman!!!! Absolutely amazing report.

Do you think it has a lot to do with the precision coil, or more the Mojave?

I bought the new RSD coil. I hung the cable first time out. They fixed it no questions asked. I paid shipping to them and they paid shipping back. No worries....

Be nice......lol

Edit: I see you said trade. Dunno......good luck.

Steve, what do you mean by, "I hung the cable".

On a good size man's gold wedding band, probably around 8+ inches in good soil. The Mojave is super hot on gold and nickels.

Caught the cable on a piece of bush, messed it up inside the connector I guess, solder joint? I had just bought the coil new from a Tesoro dealer. Got a business card and note back from Rusty.

silver too...

Makes silver sound sweet, too!
Mine found me both, a Barber dime and quarter today - on its very first outing!

Sensitivity at the halfway mark (straight up) most of the time, but had to run it lower ('bout 3) after some storm clouds darkened overhead. Seems like it was sensitive to the clouds and it got chirpy... Then it started to rain.
Started off with GB on the "low" but in many spots it got too chatty, so switched to high and then back to low a few times. There was gravel around with small hot rocks, and muddy sand in some other places.
Disc was just barely past "i" in iron the whole time, so it was telling me about a few bottlecaps (getting scratchy) but not fully ignoring them; it was knocking out nails there, making them click.
I did dig some foil, nuts & bolts, screwcaps, tabs...

As Service Manager for Tesoro, Rusty really takes good care of Tesoro's customers! I always buy from Rusty when I buy a new Tesoro detector. He will bend over backwards if need be to tell you how best to use the detector that he sells you. Other brands of detectors, I always buy from forum sponsors.
