Nickel Grand Slam with the Nox 800!

Rattlehead · Apr 23, 2018

Last weekend I went back to the old Mill in Laurens SC. Most of the place was overgrown with grass & weeds so it was tough hunting, but I wanted to see if the Equinox could pick out anything that we missed on previous hunts. Apparently the 3030s don't miss much silver but I did manage to get my first ever nickel grand slam. I can't make out the dates on the buffalos but the Shield is an 1876 and the V is a 1912. Wish I could've got on some silver but still a fun hunt!

BTW, all of the deeper nickels were reading 11, so Nox users might want to open up that nickel window to accept 11,12 and 13 if you haven't already done so. :cheers:

Looks like a fun hunt! I always set my nickel window to 11,12, and 13.

Nice job with the nickel slam !!!!

Yeah sometimes you just have to go back and hit the old spots and that's whats gonna be left the low tones and iffy signals.....
I had my fun the last few years snatching up all the nice sweet high tones with the CTX...Now I return to those spots and have to settle for some nickels and maybe some deep pennies......
I did the same today....snagged a bus token and surprisingly a decent V nickel....she might even cough up a date tomorrow......

That looks like a great place to hunt, Congrats on the grand slam!

We heard that NOX is a nickel Killer! Well, there you go! Cant remember the last Nickel Grand Slam posted? Its not a common thing to accomplish at all..less common than finding a Silver Dollar even, maybe less than a Gold Coin as well?....

Should be a Nickel Grand Slam Club!...Like only about 3 qualifiers though, and now you are one of them!! Hey, Congratulations Rattlehead!!

Nickel Grand Slam with the Nox 800!
