Lol, I started digging nickel signals at my local honey hole, and got 4 in about an hour. I wanted to learn nickels since I rarely ever get them, and practice makes perfect. So of course the first one I dig is........ 1941. Lol ONE YEAR OFF! Lol no silver today... If my life were a song, it'd be a sad country song. Lol. I also dug a 52, 61, and 76. Now at least I feel confident I know my nickel signals.

Not all 42's are silver. I dug '42 yesterday as a matter of fact. Not a silver one though!

Dug a '43 last week...that ones silver!

I have never dug as many nickels as I have with my ATP. It just love nickels!

Nickles r tricky & I definetly think so using the deus to each different program u use ull get a different # for it. Id recomend if ur using a deus learn ur tones & just use ur vdis' as mayb getting a second opinión still an awesome machine definetly my hot weather go to, better then lugging my beast v3i with extra wires considering I put a sunray on it lol

When you do dig a silver nickel Sapper it won't ring up as a nickel. It will be higher up on the scale where the silver rings in.

When I see a 52-53 on vid I assume pull tab but sometimes it is a nickel. Nickels and pull tabs read exactly the same thing.. :)
