Dear White’s,

I have been trying to incorporate my 5.3" Coil into as many hunts as possible with my XLT...and this latest hunt paid off immensely! I used the smaller coil to hit the overgrown area surrounding a Colonial Cellar Hole. It was too thick to hunt with the standard loop, but after attaching the smaller coil I was back in business! I had already dug over 20 Colonial Buttons at this site, but little did I know that there was one more surprise waiting for me just under the surface....

After about a half an hour all I had found was a lead bag seal and was about to head out when I got a +54 reading at 5”. I was thinking it could be a bottle cap, but at that depth it was more than likely a flat button. Carefully I cut my plug and was delighted to see the small button at the bottom of the hole...but did not know exactly what I had found until I got back home. All I could see was what looked like an Eagle, but it was too dirty to see any more details.

Back home I gently wiped off the now dry soil, and was in shock at what appeared! I quickly grabbed my Albert's Book of Historical and Military Buttons and began rummaging through the pages...until I finally found the exact match: Eagle facing right encircled with 17 Stars. What I had in my hand was a US Militia Button from 1798-1802!!! This was my oldest Militia button to date!

Even better, the reverse matched the book reading 'Best Quality' and had a perfect shank. This is definitely my best find for the month of August and I owe it to my 5.3" Coil for being able to go into areas where normal coils cannot....and for having great depth capabilities!

Thank You White’s!

Sincerely,

Hi White’s.

I received permission to hunt a yard that belongs to a friend I had not seen in a long time. The house he tells me was built around 1840’s or 50’s. The ground was dry and hard due to the lack of rain.

I didn’t want to mess the yard up too much so I only dug what I thought might be coin type targets. Well I left this yard very happy with my finds. The oldest was an 1830 dime. He told me I could come back and hunt again. I told him I would come back after we got a good soaking rain. I was using the White’s DFX with a 4X6 DD Shooter coil, a great machine for sure.

Thank you,

  White’s Electronics,

Well, I just finished my first year of treasure hunting. I moved to central Florida from Ohio in July of 2007. I joined the “Imperial Treasure Hunters Club” to learn all I could about hunting. Most of the members have been hunting for 20 odd years. I am 66, I golf, fish and play cards with the boys, but I get my greatest satisfaction when I put on the head phones, turn on my machine and become one. Forgetting all the problems of the world and just listening for the beep.

When it says there is something in the ground and how deep it is, it is usually right. With my probe and Bullseye, I can’t miss. It isn’t just the coins that you find; it’s what you uncover once you get a sound. The DFX in my estimation is the best machine to use. We promote White’s products at our meetings. We have on display a White’s metal detector Coinmaster 6000/Di Series 3 circa 1986. The best single month I had was $120.38. Total coins for the year were 11,428 and the total dollar amount for the year was $903.17.

I have found 26 rings, 13 one dollar coins, 38 toy cars and lots of jewelry type items. I have started a new year and hope to surpass all of my last year totals.

Happy Hunting,

Bob W.  

Hi White’s,

I have 4 detectors now, all White’s. I advertise your product as the best made in the states. I’ve never tried Minelab but don’t need to I get great service and dependability with White’s Electronics.

I just purchased your MXT300 while in Eugene Oregon. I am saving up for the 6 x 10 coil for nugget hunting. I tried it in a hunted out park and in a 50 x 50 foot area, I found 3 quarters, 9 dimes, 2 nickels, and 19 pennies. I just hunted around a group of 4 trees. Not bad!

White’s Electronics,

When I realized that my detector was not working when I was on vacation in Minnesota I decided to stop at your factory on my way home. My detector is not new and the warranty has expired. I was afraid my old friend had expired too. When you looked at my Spectrum XLT and asked if you could keep it over night I was thinking it was beyond repair.

Much to my surprise the next morning when I called I was told it was all fixed and ready to go. The best part was there was no charge. I went out to a park I hadn’t been to in a couple of months, the attached picture shows my finds for about two hours, minus the junk that went into the trash can.

Fifty quarters, fifteen nickels, fourteen dimes, seventy-four pennies, a turquoise ring, two knives, a cell phone (it has been returned to its owner), and a few misc. items. After the prompt and courteous service I received, I’m glad to say my detector is working as good as new. Thank you White’s, I wouldn’t own any other brand of detector. Also, one of my detecting partners just purchased a new DFX after I told him about your after purchase service.

Thanks again,

Peter, Talent OR
