I had another great day today. My totals for the month of January are 3 14k gold rings, 31 silver coins and some other neat stuff.
Today was my seventh or eighth hunt for the month and I have two days left to add to my total. I went back this morning to the large corner lot where I found the 14k gold ring and some other silver coins to finish up my grid search. I didn't get finished and I still have move to ground to cover. The best news of all is that I got permission to detect the large corner lot across the street. Happy me!
I set the Vaquero up with the NEL Sharpshooter search coil, about 95% on the sensitivity, just a little above iron on the discrimination, a very slight threshold and I went just a little bit negative on the ground balance.
At the end of my 3 hour hunt I pulled out my Tejon with the 8 inch super coil attach and made a quick search to see how it would do. It's a different animal and it takes a little bit to get used to after using the Vaquero, but it didn't take long before it cornered a Rosie.
I also found a couple of buffalo nickels. They were way down there. Tesoro detectors ROCK!
