I think he means a penny/dime with a rusty nail laid over the top of it.
I had somebody try to show me how great the Vaq was as finding the coin in that situation. Didn't turn out the way he wanted. LOL!
And to add insult to injury the machine I was swinging that day hit it better.

I'm starting to think that maybe I have a super vaquero. maybe they are different here in Europe, I don't know what to say :dontknow:

Maybe chinchilla! I wish I would have done a video of the iron mask test, I was kinda surprised myself at the results. The F2 did much worse, but I thought the Vaq would have done better than it did.

I honestly feel that the vaquero would be unstoppable if it offered tone id

I agree....I've seen a video on Youtube by 53silvrer showing the Golden UMax and the 4 tone ID is awesome on it. If the Vaquero had this feature, it would be hard to beat!

Now if the vaq had 4 tones, I would love to give it another try!

A vaquero with a toggle switch for Single and Multi-tone selection would be something really nice to swing

I hate those nasty nails, they keep hiding the goodies from us :BangHead:
