Boom! Finally A Gold Coin!!!! :)

[Seener53]

So today I met up with my buddy at an old pounded park. I was kind of late with a hangover When I got there my buddy had 3 silvers already so I started swinging and my first
target was a 1943 merc. Dug 3 more targets (low tones) which were junk and came across a bouncy 11-27. After a couple of seconds it locked on to 12-30 with the cursor in the middle of the screen. So that got me curious as I dug some gold before on the same cursor position. Dug a 6 inch plug and bam at the bottom of the plug was Gold! Called my buddy over as I was jumping up & down he confirmed my find and got some water to wash off the dirt. After a rinse a beautiful 1906 D 5$ gold emerged. Also found a 1904 V nickel and 5 wheaties, my buddy found 2 war nickels, 2 mercs, barber dime and over 20 wheaties. What a day, I'm so happy

Thanks for looking & HH!

That is a dream come true! So, many people have this dream but you finally had it come true. Congrats!

By the by, can someone help out a poor ole lowly AT-Pro user? I speak my detector's language fluently. But, I just can't tie the vernacular from other machines. Low tones are low tones, but 11-27, 12-30, I just don't know how to tie.

Thanks!
And congrats again!
HH!

Minelabs have two numbers on the readout, the first represents the amount of probability of ferrous metals, the second number represents the conductivity of the target. So ideally your looking for numbers like 0-30 which would equate to about a 90+ on your AT Pro.
