mn90403 Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Rick,On your way to the parking lot and Gold Basin down Stockton Hill Road you passed many places with coins and artifacts.On your trips to the river you also passed many places near the roads you could swing and do better than at the camping area.Head towards Peach Springs.Get an old picture of Kingman and go to the location and see if those businesses are still there. Get permission when necessary.Mitchel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fredmason Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Rick...how much junk did you dig? Were you only digging the high conductor signals? When you are doing that you have to really slow down and give the detector time to sort through the iron, etc... I will have to give it a go next time I am in the basin...fred Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
azdigger Posted January 25, 2016 Author Share Posted January 25, 2016 I got lots of melted metal (aluminum) nuts bolts screws and there every present POP TOP, even a few bottle caps. a few brass shells---.22 and other.\I used my small 6 inch coil and dug most all repeatable hits.

fredmason Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 well, you did it right...I guess someone did beat us to it!Still, there is a lot of ground up there and it would take days to skim through; and weeks to really work it completely.fred Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Furness Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 What Frank said ... plus ... if you let loose with an occasional fist pump they will really wonder what you are finding! Mike F Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
