Anyone using White's Coinmaster Pro?
Got mine about 10 days ago. Tried it out a couple times since, and thought I was having trouble with it.
Still having trouble, but the good kind: machine is too sensitive. Took it out to a local high school/park today, and found a quarter, couple dimes, few pennies. Also found the regular trash, and some irregular trash. It's the irregular trash that got me thinking.
I would probe and probe for several signals which read penny on the discriminate side, but turned out to be foil gum packages. Kept getting the feeling the probe (a screwdriver) was going through the target, and not able to pop the target out of the hole as I have done in the past.
Anyone else seeing such great sensitivity?
Don't get me wrong: I want the sensitivity. I have exclusive search/salvage agreement with a local homeowner, who knows of several gold coin caches which were buried near her home in the early 1930's. Don't want to miss out on any of those!
