Treasure Hunting

Well folks, this isn’t just a rumor any more. Fisher is going to release the F5 and F70 sometime in March. More importantly: JUST in time for Spring. I dug up some spec sheets on them and they look well-planned and thought out, as most of Fisher’s products do. But it appears that the F70 will be a less-pricey answer to their F75. Either way, we can’t wait until these come out.

Kellyco Metal Detectors is taking pre-orders for both of them now. Check out the F70 here for $649.00 and the F5 here for $499.00.

Enjoy these spec sheets - Just click to enlarge!

Finding old coins is certainly rewarding, but most metal detectorists walk away with more “clad” then anything else. Thankfully About.com has give us keepers-of-the-clad some hope and provided a list of the most valuable U.S. coins still in circulation.

The article describes 10 coins that could be jingling in anyone’s pocket right this moment, or buried just beneath the first layer of soil… waiting for a metal detectorist to come along and scoop it up. The majority of the coins are valuable due to errors in die varieties or mint marks, and they’re often overlooked by people because their distinguishing characteristics are small. The price of these mistakes range anywhere from $50.00 to $35,000.00 - so I highly recommend you take a look at this list, take a closer look at your change, and keep picking up that clad in your quest for treasure. And if I find a 1969-S Lincoln cent with a doubled-die obverse… well… you folks will be some of the first to know.

And here’s the link to the rest of the article and the complete list of top 10 most valuable U.S. coins in circulation.

Mr. Bill, an admin at Find’s Treasure forums and owner of surfscanner.com, posted a photo of the soon to be released Fisher F2. Details are slim, but rumor has it, the Fisher F2 is due out this December. I don’t know how firm this date is, as this metal detector has been delayed a few times in the past.

We’ll keep you posted as the details come in.
