9" Coil Continues to Shine!

[CZconnoisseur]

It's hot almost everywhere in the country this week, so I decided to try out the good ole park at dusk for a couple hours. Have been using a deep-seeking 4 kHz program here for a couple of months now, and the coins just keep coming - somedays it's nothing but aluminum and deep nails for the first hour or two, and then suddenly you see a coin in the bottom of the hole - although the signal sounded like another beavertail. This 1894 S quarter was 9" deep and had a bad rust stain on both sides from a tack that was resting presumably with the coin.

Also picked up two 1918 D Wheats, separate holes, and a 1904 Indian cent - these coins came from about 8" deep and again were just pipsqueaks of a signal.

I think it's time to start using the non-motion audio disc mode for those deeper coins - there has to be some at the 10-12" level that are *just* out of reach at the moment....

With v4.0 just around the corner - I'm excited to see what it can do for those small aluminum targets - halves of beavertails and pieces of ring pulls - that seem to plague this place. If the upgrade includes finer adjustment of Reactivity...that would be a game-changer here!

Taylor nice going on the old deep silver! You're making it super hard for me not to buy a Deus.

The video glasses' battery died and won't take a charge. Need to send it in for a batt replacement at some point - have to move at the end of this month, so after we get settled I'll get those fixed
