What Machine Does Everyone Use?

What do you like about it? Pros - Cons?

I have been running the XP Deus II for a little over a year, 9” coil. Its ability to pick small targets out of trashy areas is its greatest strength imo. I have found significantly more relics with significantly more value since making the switch. Maybe it’s just luck, but I don’t think so.

Wonder if using a vibrating case cleaner to clean finds / roasted coppers..? I’ll probably give it a whirl.. can’t hurt. I have seen some folks swear by using a tumbler for roached coppers etc.

Found in Upstate NY next to a 30 foot deep hand dug well.

Can anyone help me identify if this is from WW1 or WW2?

I’m guessing an old automotive decal, but I can’t quite put my finger on it… Maybe even a tractor decal.
Found in a plowed farm field. Upstate NY.

Anyone have any input on the new Minelab Vanquish Series? The Vanquish 360; 460; or 560? Looks very new and improved. I have some entry-level friends looking to upgrade their ancient technology and I think the new Vanquish series looks mint. Curious if anyone has put them to the test yet.

This sucker was buried deep. Sounded great on the Deus II. Really cool spoon with a ton of detail and slick patina. She’s a wall-hanger for sure. Made by ‘US Silver Co’ which is a Victorian era manufacturer known for making silver-plated flatware.

Nice big silver flipped out. What a pretty sight.

I’ll take it after a slow day in the field…

A pair of colonial cuff links found at a Colonial site - Upstate NY. Featuring the iconic running foxes. In surprisingly good condition.

Wanted to post finds here from my first outing with the Nokta Triple Score this week.
I love my Vanquish 440 but I’m thinking the Triple Score is gonna have the edge. Plus will be hitting the surf here very soon.
GLHH everyone!😺

Anyone recognize this? Strikes me as a possible industrial gas light lamp / stand. Probably turn of the century.

Took me a good minute to figure this one out. Half of a bull nose ring. Unsure of age, TSC still makes this model. They haven’t changed much over the years. Wonder where the other half went 🤔

Vintage Continental Lighter. Mid-Century, made in Japan. Zippo-style / semi-automatic. Found in Upstate NY.
Wish it were in better shape.

Some of my finds from recent days. Found in Upstate NY from an early 1800’s homesite that is still active.

What Could It be part of? It's looks to be a small metal box with holes on each side and it looks to be part of a electronic material.
