Since the topic is quite relevant, it was decided to write a separate post on this issue. It should immediately be noted that I do not agitate anyone to hand over their finds to museums. I will only describe the process of transferring the objects. Annually on October 7th, in some museums, there is a special holiday – the Day of the donor. A donor is a person who donates...
He guys! Just couple of days ago I’ve been out detecting a WW2 spot with new Teknetics Patriot metal detector. That was a great day and I had a lot of fun and some good finds also! Check out this latest video story about my detecting and take a look how is it to detect in Eastern Europe, when you have a lot of signals under your coil, but you...
Have you seen that? Interesting movie – not only a 100500# Youtube video, but really cool movie about 2 guys detecting in Germany and finding a stuff almost 2000 years old! Crazy for me!
Sometimes, the different detector manufacturers love to make jokes about each other for promotional purposes, and for us to have a good laugh. This is one funny example of that, and what do we see here under the advertisement of the new pinpointer? A little hello to Minelab! Update! Sometimes such jokes are finishing not as good as planned, but as the final result of that story – two comments...
Greetings fellow detectorists! Generally, when speaking about detecting, there are two kinds of people: The law-abiding “white diggers” and the “black diggers”, who don’t care about most of the rules and do their detecting at night. There is no clear “border” between the legal and illegal diggers because there are some people (especially news sites) who present almost all detectorists as “black diggers” and scare most people into thinking that...
The Turkish manufacturer of metal detectors Nokta / Makro – I remind you, they are two brands of metal detectors that belong to two brothers, posted on their channel on Youtube an interesting video, on which they show us a mini tour of the production, development center, quality control, and even the place of their metal detector testing! The video is interesting, it shows how and where new metal detectors...
Hello friends, fellow detectorists and fans of our hobby! I recently went into the woods to test a new detector – the metal detector Nokta Impact from the Turkish company Nokta Detectors. For depth tests, I’m generally very cautious, because so many people try to wind up the result in one way or another, to sell more detectors. I stand a little away from this, I’m more interested in the...
Maybe you thought that the coins were always round? No, there are coins from different countries of all sorts and different shapes. Take, for example, the clip coins of the Swedish Empire – large squares and rectangles of copper, which can sometimes be found with a metal detector, but something that far from everybody knew: there were also Russian square coins! It turns out that in the Russian Empire, square...
Flipping through some forums about detecting, I came across one very interesting question. Its essence is that the Fisher F44 because of its power in 2 AA batteries, does not preform as well with a large coil as other detectors. Because of this I have 2 questions: How does a metal detector with a large coil lose in depth of detection when the charge in the batteries decreases? Did the engineers...
Here we have another quite interesting story sent to us by a digger. Enjoy! My story is about the previous seasons. It is somehow romantic and somewhat mystical. Back in 2006 we were fortunate to find the treasure. Our first real treasure! 1806 copper coins from Nicholas II, 9 kg of copper in a pot buried in the corner of the basement of the former manor. Classics of the genre....
