I find no coins, just Hot Rocks.

Check the red circle on the left for loose coins, but only could be down to 1-2 feet depth max. Right circle same depth, but zooming in you see a large flat rock, if anything would be under the rock.

Well is your pendulum pushing are pulling to that spot? do you have the pendulum loaded with 24k gold ?

 

[Nick nolen]

it is pulling towards the target then circles over it. no I don't have gold. I found this with rods it was under the big rock I moved it and dowsed again same hit. There is a story behind this and when I got to it signs pointed to it and another spot close. the rods showed 3 feet down

What kind of signs pointing? If you are talking about treasure signs and carved rocks, these usually give signals underneather because the ground was excavated some to remove other stones or prepared in some way. Also objects often are buried near them.

In gold mining areas, placer gold will collect around and under large rocks. Miners who dowse and excavate, like to find large boulders deep in the ground, gold in paying quaties can be recovered that way.

I had pend. dowsed this on a map looking for caches I got 2 hits close together so I went to the site and I found a carved horse .owl, and a carved tree .After taking pics I dowsed with the rods and got the hit. the rods said it was 3feet down, could it be gone and I am picking up that it was there? I need to get another detector

From my experience on carved rocks and trees, most of these sites give some kind of signal you can pick up (even if caches are gone). You probably need to take a good look at the site and study it. Check metal detecting for any metal objects around the area of the carvings.

I've had treasure hunters tell me they found around carved rocks, some metal objects detecting hole dug at marked spots on photos. A couple objects found at a certain site once, were bullet pendulums and even a gold pendulum. This particular site, stories about it said the people who made the caches, put gold at 4 corners out away from caches to throw off dowsers. Treasure hunters knew about the metal objects associated, but none had ever seen them before now. A hoop with length of wire, a bullet on the end pointing in a direction. Next area of carved stones, found objects started to be types of pendulums.

I think most Spanish and KGC use iron objects (from what I've heard) with notches for distance and it's not recommended to remove them, just leave in the ground.

Hi Nick,Dowsing revealed an attraction to silver coins and clad in the area of the blue square. Was there anything in the dirt you dug up?Thx for posting your picture.Jon

 

[Nick nolen]

Thank you teleprospector. The dirt was clean but very hard to dig, top foot had rocks but no pointers or signs that I could tell. I have pics of them just in case.

Red desert I swept the area with a md and did not pick up anything. I have studied the area a lot and going slow.Thanks for the info might be useful and makes me think.

Well, I guess that should be expected in the US here, too many carved rock sites had the metal markers dug by treasure hunters, who didn't understand what they were finding. I know of T-Net members who have found the notched iron markers. If you find any flat iron pieces with holes, notches and/or a tube section attached......take note and photos but leave it there cover up again.
