Wanda Did the Chicken Dance THREE Times!! I was testing the Minelab Excalibur 1000 with the 10 Inch search coil. With the tide so high, there was very little loose sand. The entire area was wet with salt water but all three machines performed exceptionally well. I started detecting close to the retaining wall and within a minute I had a target indicated. Dug a new nickel, moved a few more feet down the beach, then I got hits like crazy! Click Here to Read More.

From that day on the days just got better. For six weeks I detected 2 beaches, 5 sports grounds, 2 parks and 2 race tracks between Port Headland and Karratha. I found a total of just over $3,000 in $1 and $2 coins, 17 rings, 22 pendants and 20 odd dollars of 1 and 2 cent pieces. Approximately $50 in silver, mostly 50c pieces (once I got the hang of the discriminator). Plus 34 pre-decimal coins, lead sinkers - I stopped counting at 150. Click here to read more.

How Can You Find A Leather Jacket With A Metal Detector? Early afternoon, at Daytona Beach, I was detecting up close to the sea wall under a broken staircase that lead down to the beach from a motel.

Excalibur 1000 Finds Silver Rings On Wet Sand & In Water! Hit the surflane again this morning from about 1:30 to 6:00 using my Minelab Excalibur 1000. Dug quite a few targets but nothing like last night. And there were a lot less ULTRA DEEP ones, being that the sand had shifted. Still had a good number of finds but was also getting more fresh drops. And I never really found a "hot spot" to speak of...it was pretty much beg, borrow, or steal. . .Click here to read the rest of Mike's story and see more of his finds!

Excalibur Finds 18K Gold Chain, 14K Pendant & More! I have two things on my wish list for this summer. One was to find another killer diamond ring for my wife like I did last summer. The other was for a nice gold chain for me. Well Saturday night, using my Minelab Excalibur, I crossed the chain off the list! And I couldn’t have found a better one. Being that I'm retired Navy, this 18K chain with an anchor and . . . Read the rest of Mike's story and see all his finds!

Thirty seconds yielded a. . . . Read Complete Story.

More Excalibur Finds: Gold With Diamonds! I think this is 6 hunts in a row finding gold. This is nuts! I took today off from work so I figured why not hit the low tide last night/this morning. I got there at 1 AM and hunted until about 5. I ran into David from Suffolk who had a nice silver cross. I'm sure he hit a ring or two after we met up. I had just started about 20 minutes before. There weren't too many targets where I was but I got 10 quarters, a dozen dimes, 5 nickels, and a number of pennies. Somewhere in there was the unmistakable Excalibur sound of a gold ring, not once but twice. And one with 4 small diamonds. Yeah, no big honker rock for me this time, but it's coming! I sure can't complain! The band is 14K and the diamond ring is 10K. Now it's time for me to get some shuteye so I can do it again tomorrow. – Mike, Virginia Beach, VA
