Discovery 3000(AKA a Sharpshooter II w/volume control)LOL

	FINALLY GOT A DETECTOR!!!!!! « on: February 14, 2013, 08:38:58 am »

Just picked up(last night) a virtually unused Radio Shack Discovery 3000 purchased on 5/27/1998.....used 3-4 times and put away in the closet! Still has the original box, manual, and.......the receipt!!!! If I'm not mistaken isn't this the same as the Sharpshooter II with an added volume control? Can't wait to study the manual, and try it out in the yard today! Oh, I forgot to mention I paid $50.00 for it!

It's all about that moment when metal that hasn't seen the light of day for generations frees itself from the soil and presents itself to me.

Good for you, mate! How about a challenge?

Save everything you find for the next 12 months. Put it in a bucket or two or three. Or go t othe Home Depot and get some of those orange Homer Buckets. Save all your coins and jewelry and at the end of 12 months total it up. If you get out twice a week, you'll probably have more than $1000.00 in face value coins and who knows how much in jewelry.

Happy Hunting!
