Question on our canadian coins

[sask hunter]

This is how the Canadian coin program is , but what I don't like is that our quarters , dimes ,loonies and toonies sound the same as iron scrap or trash , my question is ... Anyway to set this up so that those coins will sound off different from the iron trash? I do look at the numbers but the sound is what jumps out first. Today looks like first day I will be able to hit that old beach/park, hopefully my knee will last 45 minutes or so!! D.A.D.D.-Dads against daughters dating

I don't know which of your detectors you are using, but the Coins of your country are mostly low conductivity and there is no way around it. Be thankful you have Loonies and Toonies

Sask, I studied your Canadian coin program briefly but unfortunately the coins you mention are going to fall in same place as a lot of iron, because they are steel core coins. I think not of the tiny piece of junk iron should fall further to bottom right of the screen though. Sorry I haven't gotten back to you I've even really busy with work and new grandchild!

Fletch .... No problems at all , I understand , oh and sandman ... Forgot to mention I have the ctx3030. I guess if I want to snag some of the loons and toons I'll definetly need to dig all , : today is looking very good for first short hunt of the year , thanx guys

Yikes, I must be missing lots of Canadian coins! I don't know if I want to include them or not in my hunting program. What do they read on the scale for Loonies and Toonies?

Dean, I forgot to mention also that in believe most of the iron core coins should be fairly shallow and have a decent repeatable signal with a clean red spot in target trace during pinpoint. If it's splotchy and scattered across the screen it probably is bits of rubbish iron. Hold detect button down to access target trace activation screen.

Cudamark the loonies and toonies if I can remember are at 35:50 , I could be wrong but I will double check and post later after supper ,new dimes are 35:45 and new quarters are 35:47
Fletch.. Thanx for that info, with my at pro I hardly ever watched the screen , I guess now with my ctx iam going to have to start doing that if I want to pick these stuff up , I guess it's a whole new ball game to learn now lol

I think I have a way to make the program you sent work better. I need the numbers or some actual loonies and toonies. All I have is a Canadian nickel I found under a rusty bottle opener on the beach.

 

[sask hunter]

Ok what I will do is after supper tonight I will run the loons, toons, .25,.10 and post them , that will be great if you can fine tune that for me , very much appreciated

The beaver 5 cent I have comes in at 35-50 and pinpoints off to the side consistently. I couldn't tell the difference between the rusty nail I had in test from the beaver at all. I had the best results in Relic- Pattern 2 which is true all metal mode. I'm thinking the modern Canadian clad may not be worth trying to weed out of junk iron. Going to get my hands on a whole set of coins to see what I can come up with.

 

[sask hunter]

Fletch . Sorry I never had time to scan my coins for you , things got busy and today i traveling for a dr appt. , you may be right on about trying to weed out these coins , and remember I was telling you that the 2006 coins come up different from the 2012 coins , lol there is just no consistency in these damn things !

Glad I don't have to try and sort nickel plated steel coins from the other stuff in the ground! I did in a past life plate several hundred of millions of coin blanks for the Canadian Mint. Also plated billions of US zinc cents and hate them all.
