    Thanks Dan! I've been kind of spoiled with all the silvers I've dug this year (49 so far) so the wheat pennies don't really get me going. They are fun to find but I don't know if too many people get excited about them.

    Thanks for subscribing Jim! Hopefully I can crank out an even better video for next week! I'm heading back out there right now. I was out for a short bit yesterday and dug 4 more wheats and a silver so that'll be on the next video.

    Hello, enjoyed your video. Do not see many that accually show the dig. If you don't mind me asking, what kind of shovel are you using? Looks to be pretty light weight.

  • @EmptyWilbur

    @EmptyWilbur

    Thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed it! What I use is an Anaconda NX-6 Tempered Steel 36" Shovel. It works very well and is quite light. Only problem I've run into is I've bent and broken a couple trying to dig super hard or frozen ground......which I probably shouldn't be digging or cranking on a shovel in in the first place. I've got two of them so I always have a back-up. They run about $100.

    I've never had a lot of luck around old school houses from the early 1900's. I think a lot of the guys who bought detectors when they first came out hit these places pretty hard since they are public property. I was surprised I got anything from there let alone a silver!

    I may have to check that out.....I always like seeing that really old stuff they have over there. The oldest we detect in my area is mid 1800's at the oldest. Most everything I dig is early 1900's to 1950's.......I can't stand digging clad!

    What are your thoughts on the CTX 30/30

  • @EmptyWilbur

    @EmptyWilbur

    27 күн бұрын

    Huge fan of the CTX3030. It is a bit heavier than most detectors so you get pretty worn out after a day full of swinging but I feel like it really gives you a good idea of what you're digging and picks out those hidden, semi-masked signals. I'm thinking about buying a second one to have as a backup just in case they quit making them in the future like they did with the Etrac.
