July 10, 2011: Turn on GMA this Thursday! KG and the Ringmaster to appear on Good Morning America this Thursday! Good Morning America! KG and the Ringmaster will likely be appearing this Thursday on GMA. Not exactly sure why they wanted to film us, but they did. Filmed about eight hours of footage, but as usual, 95% of the ignorance had to be censored. We don't know much more about it than that, so we'll be as surprised as everyone else at what actually airs. 
April 21, 2011: KG and Ringy have been tearing it up with the new AT Pros. Check out the new ATC Rifle Casing Archive to see some of the recents finds. Also, some great coin firsts in just this past weekend: Jason Sage (of Montana) found his first silver dollar (1894O), T.O. found his first Barber half (1907D), and the Ringmaster found his first seated quarter (and oldest ever US coin - 1854)!!! Check out the photographs on the ATC Facebook page or our own ATC Finds page for more info and nectar. 
Mar 2, 2011: Garrett AT Pro Recovery Time Test: This is an awesome new detector with an incredible set of features. Check out this short video of KG and the Ringmaster field testing the recovery time. This thing is super light, waterproof, has number readouts, notch discrimination, and the list goes on... It's a very exciting new machine. Check the Hall of Fame to see the 1837 bust quarter that Steve M. of Texas dug up with the AT Pro!!! 
Jan 24, 2011: Urban Arch Prize Winners: Here are just a couple of winners from the Urban Archaeology winter giveaway thingy. Hundreds of prizes were given out, and fun was had by all. See the December First entry below for more info and links to UA. 
Dec 12, 2010: Hey! Look here children, at the newly available Team ATC membership patches, which are quite collectible, colorful, and will undoubtedly clash with anything you wear. These are high quality 3” embroidered emblems that authoritatively announce to the world that you are a serious, experienced metal detectorist. Worn properly, and when seen by other “regular” treasure hunters, these bold badges will cause them to cower in fear and relinquish any potential juice pockets to you. Sew one onto your breast plate today. Be the alpha dog in the pack of sniveling rodents and order your piece of metal detecting history right now. Dec 1, 2010: WIN PRIZES: Ryan O’Shea at UrbanArchaeology.org is having a great holiday giveaway this month. No strings attached. Really. Silver, coins, other great prizes, and then some not so great prizes (pull tabs, bottle caps, lumps of coal, etc.). Ha! Just go to the site, enter, and hopefully win something awesome. As Gene Simmons says, you’ve got nothing to lose! Check out the prizes here: Urban Archaeology. 
Nov 1, 2010: EMD6 is here! Ignition of Ignorance. Get the dumbest detecting DVD ever made. Available on Ebay, Amazon, and this website! It's all bad. Previous customers get the usual discount when ordering direct from ATC. Read about this latest compilation in the EMD series on the DVDs page. Be sure to ask about the discount if you haven't already done so. 
Oct 27, 2010: A new Team ATC You Tube video is out there for your viewing pleasure right now. It's the year 2010 condensed into 15 minutes of obnoxiousness, featuring the usual gang. It's a must-see for any serious Team ATC member. Watch it here (push play at top of this page), or watch it on You Tube or Facebook, or download it directly: Download. Oct 1, 2010: Garrett is introducing another exciting new AT Pro metal detector very soon, which will have the new double D coil and will be submergable to ten feet under water! Some details are available now on the garrett.com site, and we will post all info on the ATC website as soon as they are available for sale. Sept 15, 2010: Garrett is introducing the ACE350 metal detector with a new Double-D coil and more powerful enhancements than than the other ACE models! This looks like a great, lightweight, midrange detector. We are running a special on the ACE350 package from Sept 15 through Dec 31, 2010. Check out the details here: ACE350. Sept 1, 2010: Ringy found yet another half dollar last weekend!!! Team ATC has not found any silver dollars for a couple of years now, but weirdly, they have blown away the past years' records for halves. This is the 12th or 13th half dollar this year, and it's only 2/3 over. That's approximately 66.67%, which means we have about 33.33% of the year left to hunt. Mama. Crazy how streaky this hobby can be, but that's part of what makes it interesting and fun. Mama Dada. Mama. Coins are delicious and delectable. Why? Why is it so? 
April 1, 2010: Free ATC Ringtones: No, it's not an April Fools joke. It's as real as the next pitted zinc penny you will dig up this year. Just when you thought you would never read about anything this stupid, here you are reading this. Team ATC now has custom ringtones for your phone, and they're FREE!!! Read more and go listen to them here. March 31, 2010: 2010 Penny Blog Update: The new 2010 Lincoln Cent design has been chosen. We now have "shield pennies". Read all about the future of our pennies and check out the new design. Mar 2010: Team ATC is now on Facebook! We're not really sure what Facebook is, but we're there, baby! Just another place to keep yourself up to date on breaking news in the important world of extreme metal detecting... I don't think you have to sign in or have an account to see the page, so go take a look if you're so inclined:

ATC Treasure Box Status
Three wooden treasure boxes were buried over the past couple of years, each containing silver coins and other not-so-valuable items. Each box contains at least one seated half dollar. Here is the current last known status of these boxes. The ATC book will lead you right to them, by the way. Click on the pictures of the boxes that have been found to see more pictures and details.

Lose Something?
Team ATC's Search Team Can Help
If you lost a wedding ring or other metal item locally, call Team ATC. We can help you find it, and depending on the circumstances, we often do searches for free. If you have a general idea where it was lost, call as soon as possible, especially if the item is under water, because the longer it sits, the more chance it has to be swept further from its original position. As well, the memory of how and where it was lost will begin to fade. We've been called to locate things as small as rings and as large as underground pumps. Email us or call 406 560-0997 or 406 691-0504 for help. |
