Three Fault 161 3

Just got back from AZ, Three Fault claim, good looking area, I didn't find any gold this trip, I did find a bunch of small nails about a 1/2 long and all curled at the ends and they were all in an area of about 3 feet. I posted a picture of them on my claim report if anyone wants to take a look at them, maybe some one has and idea what they are or what there from. Maybe from an old saddle bag or something, I've found boot tacks and there smaller so I don't think there from an old pair boots. The...

I just dipped into the PI waters so to speak. The White's online manual just gives basic startup. Any tips or experience with this machine appreciated. Have an MXT and MX-5 and some experience with the VLF side of things. Won't ever be diving with it though.

World's biggest cache hunt! 249 0
Started by frankn1937@hotmail.com
The Ghost town is Gallows Harbor, PA. It is on the west branch of the Susquehanna River. There are 6 large chests and 6 smaller chests plus a glass skull filled with coins, gems, etc. There is a novel on Kick start that has all the clues needed to find the caches. A good metal detector would also help. I have seen the preview pictures of the 6 chests, but the picture option no longer exist in this forum. One looks like the Arc of the covenant That Indiana Jones was after.

I have been trying to break out of my Beach and park metal detecting routine for the past few years and can't seem to find any place to go metal detecting for gold nuggets and the Apple valley Lucerne area anybody know where we can go metal detecting looking for gold nuggets I have an mx7 by White's electronics that I have been itching to go looking for nuggets.

6 Elliptical vs 6 Concentric 287 0
Started by jerry.perez1969@gmail.com
Hi Guys, I have a whites MX7 that still has the stock 9' Sport concentric coil. What's your preference or which coil do you see is more practical for nuggetshooting. I've used both coils before but didnt have them long enough to decide which was more practical for nuggetshotting. Any manufacturer at this point is valid for this forum considering that this forum is strictly recommending the size and shape of the coil and not a features of machines. Any recommendations is greatly appreciated!!

Detecting for nuggets 643 3
Started by bigdogpc@gmail.com
Headed to AZ in March. Will be camping, moving around the state and hopefully get some detecting done. It is tough to plan all this from Florida and I certainly don't want to break any laws or claim jump. I am hoping a local can point me in the right direction. I will be armed with AT Pro and snakeboots. High hopes to find a nugget but mostly looking forward to at least being in an area where they CAN be found. Thanks in advance!
