IMO the F2 update has made the Equinox a new machine.
I'm pulling targets in spots that I know I've detected before.
Yes I'm digging sketchy and ambiguous targets but am being rewarded with silver and other cool finds.
Brief hunt today yielded:
1919 Wheatie
1963 Quarter
Bling ring
flattened Tootsie toy truck
railroad spike
aluminum back from a? purse mirror
nice marble in the hole with the Wheatie.
Kudos to Minelab
Thanks for looking

The more trash and iffy signals you dig the better treasures you'll find. The more you use and play with a detector the better you'll get with it. I find a signal that doesn't pinpoint correctly , then I pin point it solid one way run the detector over normally check the VDI. If it's no good find the other spot that pinpoints and do the same. Doing this can separate targets almost on top of each other. I find many targets with iron over or next to them. Another thing is to go over the target in all metal and the iron grunt will help you decide if it's worth digging. Good luck and keep us informed

I went back to the same spot.
Dug 21 targets.
6 coins including a 1904 Barber and a 1923 Merc.
I'm very happy with that ratio.
I'm also certain that there's plenty more to discover.
