Hi all and thanks for the enlightening info here. I've researched this ground and found it was used as a camping area in the 1800's during a gold rush. I'm of the firm belief that there must be some dropped/stashed gold here and would be more than grateful if any of the pro's here would have a glance at it for me. An idea of depth would also be really helpful. I've detected over 100 coins so far (from 1800 to 1900) so it was a busy little village at some point.

cheers guys, again thanks for any input

Thanks Art,
Matches what Okie said, my issue is finding it. Got myself an E-Trac but no way it will see that deep.

Time to put my thinking cap on, really appreciate your help

cheers

Hello aussiedetect,
In map dowsing, deep coin signals are not always a cache....sometimes they get down deeper during excavation. The deep signals here are the 2 red rectangles, the one with the solid red circle inside, seemed to have the best chance of being a cache. Of course, not all caches will be deep, so any of the other shallow coin hits (red outline circles) it's possible might be hiding a shallow cache. Most of the red outline circle areas won't have a cache, but there should be loose targets you can metal detect 2 ft or less deep. Here is my general definitions from a file I keep on marked spots.

Red circle is to mark areas, of loose or surface coins/treasure and artifacts of value, down to 1-2 feet deep.
Red line box (or solid filled circles) for very deep coins/treasure or artifacts of value.
