I went too the park today,and decided to give 2 tone ferrous a try where my threshhold was nulling out allot....sounded like a machine gun going off on about every sweep, so many nails! I was using a totally open screen on the E-trac auto sensitivity+3 got a high tone inbetween the machine gun affect, swept real slow and did the "wiggle" nice repeatable sound...up came a 1906 Indian..I was happy...went about 3 feet farther, same thing happened, up came the 1920 merc!.....nails are your friend if you own a E-trac and use the 2 tone ferrous...Im sold on it :headbang: I know these are not mind blowing finds but hey its hard to find these coins where i live now a days

Thanks RF i would have hunted longer but a nasty mixture of rain and snow started coming down! and my toes were already cold!..keep at it you will find good stuff! Just as you feel like giving up is when something good comes out of the ground!

2-Tone Ferrous! :notworthy: I thought that was just "my" little secret. Great job. Nothing like hunting in 2 tone Fe in a iron infested area.
Awesome! Congrats! :thumbsup:
