Excelerator Treasure Stories

I hunted for about an hour before I got my first good signal. I got a VDI reading of 90-92 indicating 50 cents at 2" deep. The soil was loose and I used my hand to remove the soil, and out popped this shiny coin. It was a coin that I am not familiar with. It took me a moment to see that it was a 1910 silver Canadian half dollar. It is well worn but still a very nice find. Click Here To Read More.

Well I am impressed with this 8" DD Excelerator coil. I was hunting in a "hunted out" park that has its fair share of trash. I found that even though this coil is bigger than I normally use is high trash areas, I was still able to get great target separation and recover some coins out of the trash. VDI numbers were accurate as was the depth readings. I was running my White's MXT's gain at +2 and the detector was reasonably stable and quiet. What I liked best about the coil was its detection depth. Click Here To Read More.

When I put the 6" excelereator on my DFX and was doing some testing I got this signal right next to a piece of metal (I always missed it with the large stock coils). It was a small gold ring! I couldn't believe it!! Now I am convinced about these small DD coils. They are great in trash! Click Here To Read More.

I could not believe that all of this was left behind by me and everyone else using all different brand names of metal detectors. The 6" Excelerator coil is hot, hot, hot! Every site that I go to now with this coil I know that I will find something - coins or some objects - left behind by some others. Click Here To Read More.

This coil is an excellent choice for open field hunting and even in high trash areas. I have only used it for about 6 or 7 hours but in that time I found that I was able to detect deep targets as I dug several targets that were in the 8 to 9 inch range. I feel that the coil is capable of getting down deeper. Pinpointing with this coil is a snap.

I recovered this beautiful women's silver bracelet with what I believe to be Mother of Pearl stones all the way around it. It is very heavy and is marked .925. I walked over to my wife to do a little bragging and held it out for her to see. Well she scooped it out of my hand faster than I could say "Hey Honey look what I found." I think she likes it. It is going to be a great summer for metal detecting.

Today my wife and I went metal detecting. We went to a park that has produced some nice finds in the past and today it would produce again. My wife dug this very nice women's 10K gold ring that has 10 diamonds. Needless to say, she was thrilled with her find. She was using her White's MXT with her favorite search coil, the Excelerator 4.5x7 DD. She got a solid 10-12 VDI reading at 4 inches down. Click Here To Read More.

I was able to get out today with my Minelab SE and the new 6 inch DD Excelerator coil. This coil has proven to be an exceptional coil for me. It is hot on small gold items and coins. The deepest coin I've dug was a 1920 wheat penny from 8 inches down with this coil.

Well it turns out that I was right. My First find was a liberty Head Nickel about eight inches deep. Not a bad start for the day. I detected for about four hours total. Finds were. Two liberty Head nickels, Three large cents, two buckles, two mercury's, two standing liberty's, one IH, and a nice Bell. Click Here To Read More.

I can say that my White's MXT with 6" Excelerator was on fire this weekend. I hit a few tot lots and parks and I did pretty good. My favorite finds were the dollar coins, the Kennedy half and the 25" 14K gold chain. Like I said we had a great weekend. Click Here To Read More.

Thought I would send you a couple of photos of a ring I found while using the 10x14 DD Excelerator searchcoil. My wife and I went to a local park to hunt even though it was windy and cold. We did not find much in the hour we were there but I did find this 10K Black Hills gold ring with a nice Garnet gemstone.(VDI 20-22).

Sorry, no pictures...just impressions. I've been out several times with the 10 x 14 in the fields and have reported it's a very solid performer. I was interested to see how it did at the beach, in the wet salt sand and shallow water. The answer: Excellent. Click Here To Read More.

I had only made a few sweeps of my coil when I located two targets within inches of each other. One target read a quarter and the other read a dime. I dug both targets and recovered two silver coins, a 1942 quarter and a 1934 Mercury dime. I don't dig a lot of silver coins so I was pretty excited. The 6" DD Excelerator search coil never ceases to amaze me. Click Here To Read More.

I am really tickled with my new 10 X 14 DD Excelerator searchcoil. When the coil arrived I mounted it on my White's MXT and I was happy to see that the detector had a good balance with the big coil mounted. I got a chance to put the coil through its paces for a couple hours or so this weekend at a school near my home. I found that it pinpointed right on the money, VDI numbers were accurate and I was able to run the gain near max without any noticable chatter.

I was running in the coin and jewelry program with tone ID on and was hoping to dig another gold ring but just dug the trash I included in the photo, digging through sod and hard dirt is a nasty chore! I managed o find some clad at the usual shallow depths for the next 1/2 hour and then I got a sweet silver tone, which turned up the silver ring which was 6 inches deep on the meter and had a chunk of aluminum right above it!

Was I SURPRISED!!! Man this thing is DEAD on DEEP and it picks between trash like butter! I was finding most of my coins at the 5 to 6 inch range and did go deep on some bigger copper and lead! almost 10 inches on the bigger stuff! Got a Spill with 3 wheats and a V nickle in the same hole at about 7 inches! The coil sees coins on edge very well! Click Here To Read More.

I was hunting with my MXT with the 4.5x7 Excelerator coil. (Love that coil) We had been hunting for about an hour when I got a solid penny reading. I recovered this odd little figure from about 4" down. It appeared to be a man with wings having a fat belly holding a torch above his head. On the bottom of the figure it reads Moline (MP) Plow company.

I hunted the front yard for about two hours pulling pieces of brass and lead from depths of 10 to 12 inches.I walked over to the field along side the house that would end up yielded the majority of my finds. In the field the 16.5 coil was easier to swing then I thought it would be. Click Here To Read More.

I was using my DFX with my own custom program and the new Excelerator coil. The train knife was the neatest find of the day which came from a depth of 10 inches. This knife has some "meat" to it as it weighs in at 4 ozs. Wish I knew how old it is but it was still a nice find and the coil banged it out with no problem from that depth. Click Here To Read More.

EXcelerator Searchcoils Provide Superior Separation! The only way to explain these EXcelerator coils is WOW!! I first bought the 14" searchcoil and in three trips to schools a friend and I hammered hard during the summer and collected $19.75 in clad, a 1944 D wheat penny and a few small rings. Being so impressed.

The EXcelerator Coil Does It Again!The EXcelerator hit pay dirt today! I had to get the 2 acres mowed today and didn't think I would get out, man I'm glad I did! I installed an AC unit in this guys home a couple of weeks ago and asked who owned the old site behind his house, he said it used to be his Grandpa's place. They burned it down in 1970. Anyway, he said I could hunt it when I wanted to. Click Here to Read More.

EXcelerator 5" + White's MXT = OUTSTANDING!
Well I got home this evening and decided to try the 5 inch EXcelerator searchcoil in my nail pile. Well going across the yard I stopped to check out the quarter I have buried at 10 inches, interesting find, I tried relic mode gain +3, disc on 2, swept over the quarter and got a slight change in the threshold, left the setting as they were and flipped to coin mode, No ID but a good enough beep to make you dig. Well content with this I went out to my nail pile, dub a bunch of iffy signals which were all nails. They ranged from 4-8 inches. Then got a good hit showed 9 inches, 6 inches down was a lead bullet, then found a couple more funny looking things. I still ended up using the relic mode as it is better in iron. The bullet looks like the one I see on the relic forum, maybe my first!! Anyway, I was pleased with the little coil and got a few more trash heap in mind I want to check out with it. I have no idea what the big round thing is, thought it was my first 50 cent piece for a minute.

I finally got the Ex2 and did some tests against the SE. I would locate a target with the SE and mark it with a golf tee which I had number 1 thru 6. I then wrote the digital readout I got on a paper. I went back with the EX2 with the same settings and got the same reading. Click Here To Read More.

I headed for the park to dig up a present.LOL Well it didn't take long swinging my MXT with 6" Excelerator. I got a strong steady 10-12 VDI at 3 inch's. I recovered a nice gold ring which has a ruby and diamonds. I took the ring home to my wife and she loved it, and it fit her to boot, but I have the feeling I am not going to get off that easy for Mother's day. Hallmarked and 10K. D.A Idaho.

I got out today with the White's DFX for about 90 minutes and was very surprised with the results.  I put in a new program and used the Excelerator 8" DD coil. I went to the oldest park in town that I have beat to death in the past with my Explorer and still managed to squeeze some silver out.
