Deluxe Coin Apron

(Click thumbnail for larger photo)
I first conceived of the idea for my Deluxe Coin Apron on our first trip detecting in England. It was born out of necessity. Never had I dug so many targets in a given period of time. Relics and pieces of relics of all sorts and ancient and modern coins. There was a fair share of recognizable trash, but much of the unidentifiable objects had to be kept until the end of the day for verification by the experts. I watched as my fellow hunters' pouches, mine as well, overflowed from the brim. Every bend from the waist, as the day progressed, deposited some part of our "treasures" on the ground. Then it came to me' there was nothing in the construction of my pouch to keep it from opening up like a teapot. That is when I got the idea of a membrane divider sewn down the middle of the pouch, dividing it into to compartments and preventing it from dumping open. I took the idea to Steve Blankenship of Desert Moon Products, who builds our cordura items and Voila! The Deluxe Coin Apron became a reality. We used the two large sections to divide the good trash from the bad trash. The back panel is made of tough cordura for strength and to help the apron hold its shape. The front and sides are made from strong but lightweight nylon fabric. The two deep, roomy pockets stay open so you can get your hands inside or drop a large object in without fumbling around. Nothing falls out when you bend over and it doesn't feel big or bulky. I added a large outside pocket with full zipper to stow special finds for safe keeping. It is even large enough for wallet, keys or extra batteries. I call it an "apron" because it has its own adjustable belt attached with a strong nylon buckle.

Surf Apron

Our Surf Apron is designed for beach and water hunters. The back panel and outside pocket are made out of the same sturdy cordura fabric that we use in our digging and prospecting pouches. The front panel, however, is made from a tough mesh weave that filters out sand and water and is secured to the back of the pouch with velcro to form a "safe pocket". This apron can be worn in the water and under the water, without the worry of losing your finds. Nothing is worse than being hit by a wave and having your pouch float up and dump all of your coins and rings back into the drink. The Surf Apron fits comfortably around your waist with its attached nylon webbed belt and adjustable buckle.

Sierra Digging Kit

We've received many requests for a good digging kit... we listened. The result is the Sierra Digging Kit. We start out with a sturdy cordura fabric that stands up to a heap of stretching and abuse and topstitched the bottom seam for added reinforcement. We added two roomy pockets that will hold just about anything. The front one has a velcro closier to keep the "good stuff" separated from the junk. It has two snug side slits that hold our Coin Popper and Coin Probe (see Poppers & Probes) and a nylon webbed sleeve on the side for a larger tool of your choice, such as a trowel. Our Digging Pouch is available separately, just as our Coin Popper and Coin Probe are, but you save a couple of dollars when you purchase them as a kit.

Digging Kit Item # JS-DK $36.95

Digging Pouch Item # JS-DP $16.00

Coin Popper Item # JS-CPP $15.95

Coin Probe Item # 601-1128-1 $6.95

Deluxe Relic Apron

(Click thumbnail for larger photo)

The Deluxe Relic Apron just sort of evolved from the Original Deluxe Digging Apron which I designed for use on our detecting trips to England and the need to increase the capacity of the Original Prospecting Pouch. The transition to a great Deluxe Relic Apron was a natural. I added a tough web belt and nylon buckle, two pockets inside (one mesh, one cordura) and two heavy web stiffeners on either inside (they double as pockets as well). Of course the zippered pocket for goodies stayed on front. A web holder for a pinpointer was added on one inside panel and a velcro closed pocket was added to the other side (it holds an XLT nicad).

Prospecting Kit

		Our Prospecting Pouch is made out of the same heavy duty cordura fabric as our Digging Pouch. We modified it by adding a full length tube that holds the Mag-Pick Lightweight. (see Mag-Picks). It will actually hold most any short handled pick of your choice. It has two roomy pockets to hold your personal equipment as well as room to carry away your trash as well as your share of nuggets. The deepest pocket holds our Sierra Nugget Tray (see Nugget Tray). All items can be purchased separately, but if you buy them as a kit you save $4.95.

The next step was finding a place to hang my Mag Pick. I didn't want to distort the shape of my pouch by hanging the pick from the side, so I designed a separate Pick Holster to hang from my belt. This way, I could keep the pick on one side and the pouch on the other. [Pick not included in price. ]
