The Buff and V register 12 mostly, but sometimes 13.
The Merc registers hmmmmm! I've found Mercs hitting at 23,24,25,26. Depending what's in the same hole or close to it. Normally they come in around 25-26. I'd just recommend digging all repeatables in all those numbers :)

It's a town that's been pounded hard by lots of hunters. Finds are few and far in between!

Those are some nice old coins. Nickels usually hit at 13 on my 800. Like Digger RJ, my detector also registers dimes at 23,24,25 and 26. Hit that 27 mark, and you know your working on a quarter !
