Detector(s) used
Gold Bug 2
Primary Interest:
All Treasure Hunting
I got permission to detect on a claimed land known for gold nuggets.

Today was my first day with my new toy (very first metal detector) and found just bunch of crap :D
Either way, it was good experience to getting my machine know.
I could stay only about 3 hours because it was at least 104F, super hot.

Great start so don't give up. There's plenty of treasure out there for you!
 

Keep at it! The goodies will eventually find your coil! :icon_thumleft:
 

Thanks guys, I don’t give up that easily :p
 

Now I definitely know what my MD sounds like when I come across iron lol
 

No worries....I find lots of crap:tongue3:
 

Bunch of crap ..... better than crapping a bunch ...... I think anyways
 

After a while, you won't wash your crap. That's some good looking crap!
 

Yep, lots of crap.
But very tiny bits of crap.
So if your detector and your hearing is picking up on all those tiny pieces of crap,
then sooner or later your coil is gonna pass over some gold.
Keep at it!

That small crap is showing your detector is working and able to find small stuff. Good news! Soon you will start to find goodies!! 104!! Yikes
 

Your doing fine. You just posted a "reality" picture. We all find that kind of "crap" in a given hunt. If you dont dig some of those, your missing some good targets also, that may ring up the same. You will get to know your detector better with each outing. Just don't become to selective with which "crap" targets you don't want to dig !
 

You are doing fine. To be able to find such SMALL targets tells me you are doing it right. Suggestion: go take a couple cents or a dime or such and "plant" it outside a couple inches deep and find out how the machine "sees" it. That's a great learning tool.
 

Like the bottle cap. That would fit right in my collection. Stay vigilant.
