First silver seeded hunt-----need tips

[Dimeman]

Joined a club a few months back and this weekend have a silver coin seeded hunt. It is going to be in a park area that has loads of bottlecaps, pulltabs and other junk items all over.

Since the coins will be on the ground or pushed just under the surface, I won't need a lot of depth.
I have 2 detectors, a Whites IDX and a Whites M6. Both are fast recovery from target to target detectors.

IF I use my Whites IDX, what coil should I use?? I have the 4X6, the 6 inch, the 8 inch and the 9 1/2 inch.
IF I use the M6 what coil?? I have the Excelerator 4 1/2X7 shooter, the 9 1/2 inch, 6X10, and D2 10 inch.

Needing to cover large area of ground to pick up lots of silver a large coil should be best, but since there is an abundance of trash a smaller coil would be better.

Since I don't need the depth and only want to get silver, should I crank up the DISC to coins only and lower the SENS?

Are there any experienced group hunters out there can give me some suggestions, tips, or comment on any of the above? ?

Depends on how they bury the coins...

went to one where they inserted the cut at an angle and slid the coin down a chute into the cut...

I used the biggest coil I had and raised the disc right below where the tokens were accepted...I whipped the coil as fast as I could...when I got a signal..I x'd it real fast...reached down and pulled at the grass which revealed the slit..I used a finger and reached in and grabbed the coin....all done in a matter of seconds. I did really well.

GL...they are fun as all get out and hope that helped
