Constitutional silver is selling higher on the street right now than melt price.
I would be interested in buying if you sell at that price.

I am looking for a small coil for the new to me F70....I mostly park or yard hunt. I see the fisher 5" concentric and a 6.5" are available, and probably others....not sure what the F75/F70 users on here found worked the best.
If you have one you can part with, I am interested.
Thank you....
PS: Hi to Tom D. Miss my CZ3D you tuned....I shouldn't have sold it....

I am interested....I sold my Fisher CZ3D and got out of it, but it would be nice to have something to use once in a while...
I will send you a PM.

Quite impressive! With 12v at 2 amps, it is doing a lot of something. Only problem is one ad said it took 220v to charge it. Must be for Europe.
With those lights on the back, it might be worth buying one just as a gag. Imagine all the looks of envy from fellow detectorists at your next club hunt.
Wonder if you could still have kids after 8 hours of operation in the field....

I have consistently not been able to get on the forum when in cellular mode on my iPhone. I am on AT&T and have never had trouble before about a week ago. Anybody do any forum site work that involved permissions?

Hi guys…..I mostly am in the background reading your exploits in the field and all the racer info. I don't get out much these days with all the family and job chores. I am in a pinch to get a car for my daughter [ the car I have for her now is acting up] so I am forced to put up my CZ3D for sale. It is a s/n 1121 model in mint shape that was tuned by Tom on 2/25/12 and he certified it wit

Thank you, MichiganRelicHunter.....now I know what it is. I thought it seemed a bit soft for a button. I've wondered for a long what it was....

I found a flat button that looks exactly like the one you found. Looks like a washer with a rod across the center. Very plain, no writing. I don't know much about buttons. Is it just a common trouser button or something? I found it on an old homestead going back to around 1850..... Looks like you had a fun hunt.

I had the Whites Eagle SL II also and it was very accurate. I have the CZ3D now, but have not tried an E Trac. Would like to try one sometime.....

BeeMan.....I don't know what your yard is like but in Magalia you could have iron and or a very rapidly changing ground environment. It may be easiest starting out to head to a park sandbox where the mineralization is low and you can easily bury coins to test......just a thought.....

Hey BeeMan......I used to live in Paradise in the 80's and actually did some detecting in the area with an old compass unit. Home of the Willard nugget, as I recall I found square nails on some trails down to the west branch and plenty of iron ore. Deathray is right in that it is not an easy deal. That west branch and area was completely turned upside down by the chinese laborers. Ther

The way to do it now is to have the detector built into a motorized cart that is guided by gps to cover the field in the pattern you specify and call you on your iphone when it gets a good signal.......the deluxe model digs it for you, too.

Well, one thing that was different when we were kids is that TV wasn't so into explicit violence and digging around in dead bodies like it is now. If you want to stop gun violence, shut off all the violence on TV. I don't even watch that stuff anymore because it is so pointless. It is having way more influence on this culture than anyone will admit. It isn't even on their radar

If you were going to keep the 1021 unit I would have Tom look at it for sure. You won't lay awake at night wondering what it could be. If you ever sell it, the buyer will know what they are getting with Tom's 'certification'. He looked at my 1121 unit and squeaked a little more out to certify it at 12". To me it was well worth it and the questions are resolved. If I h

As others are saying, the 10.5 is best for open field/ low junk environments. I did find that the comparison chart listed by this gentleman was helpful to give a relative difference in depth between coils......

Of course, you are right! It just seemed so much smaller when I got out there. Indeed, it is a 5". I will edit my post. Thank you for pointing out my error.
