Last week, my ctx 3030 with 6" and 11" coil and aa battery pack was stolen. The main unit's Serial#40446609632. It was pretty scuffed up, and there's a line in the screen, and silicon grease under the USB cap. Minelab has been alerted and they have the serial #. If this machine comes on your...
i've rarely, if ever, posted in garage sales before, and quit posting my md finds a couple years ago, but with beachkid23, one of my favorite posters caring for his dad for the nonce, I thought it would be a nice tribute to post something now. I usually have nowhere near the same quality finds...

sorry, got the wrong title on this, should be "eyeballed gold in the parking lot."
This gold earring I found next to my car in the parking garage. It's 18k (tested), and weighs .134 grams. I always keep an eyeball peeled for gold in parking lots.
Sunday morning I found this narrow 2mm, size 9 band in the water. It has illegible hallmarks on the outside of the band. It's inscribed on the inside with a foreign language first name. There is no legible fineness (karat) mark. The ring is quite beat up.
It weighs 5.22 grams, which seems to me...
Whit Hill is a wonderful songwriter/singer who is also a passionate metal detectorist. She's also a dancer, but that's not part of this story.
She just issued a cd of all Metal Detecting songs. It's a gas.
To sample the cd and maybe buy one this is her website:

By the way, she was...
this is an English live action serial, 2 poor schnooks have been digging crap for years and we know, but they don't, that they have just missed a spectacular Saxon hoard. It's a pleasant show, and funny, and these guys so rarely find anything good it makes me feel better.
Dont' know which...
14k, 2.2 grams, the 2 side stones are diamonds, the center is aquamarine
Wednesday I was really looking forward to hunting this field again. I felt optimistic. I could have considered the fact that i had already removed 6 gold rings from the field to be a crippling handicap, that the field...
I finally found the Great White Whale that I'd been pursuing for the last year or so, on this Labor Day weekend, when I scooped up a 3 diamond engagement ring with a nearly 1 carat center diamond in a 14k white gold setting. I'd committed myself to finding a big diamond over a year ago, and...
The ring has no hallmarks nor maker marks, but it streak tested as sterling or coin silver. A sheet of gold covers one corner, and the inset is mother of pearl.
Found at the back of the beach in a traffic lane while I was returning to the car park, the sand was more in the nature of hardpan...
Tuesday, I recovered a diamond solitaire ring and a Pandora bead.
The ring gave a very solid, quite low frequency signal on my excalibur 1000. I saw it when I dumped the sand out of my scoop for just a second and thought it was the ring portion of a broken tab, it had the bit of a...
SOLVED: Bought an extension tube at Lowe's for $20. If it works, I'm still $60 to the good.
problem was: i am making a straight shaft for my excalibur and was looking for a "tube adjuster" also called "twist-lock tube adjuster"; "telescoping tube plastic lock"; shaft tightener, whatever.
Here's a ring I found at dusk on Tuesday. I couldn't see a karat mark on the band, and it had a cheap, flashy appearance. At the time, I figured it was costume jewelry.
I forgot about it, and the next day I pulled it from my pants pocket while doing laundry. It felt a little heavy for a ring...
I was watching a fast moving thunder-shower on my radar app move over Miami Beach Saturday afternoon. I raced over the causeway, and sure enough found several open parking spaces by the beach. By the time I had finished suiting up, the sun was out and all the empty spaces were filled up...
