I was beginning to wonder why 9 times out of ten the coins I dig are 3-4 inches only. I have heard of tones dropping quite drastically with deeper targets, but after a bit of experimenting yesterday, let's just say I'm pretty shocked.
I buried several coins deeper than six inches, and while I could tell they were deep, I did not expect them to ring up in the iron range, and very iffy, at that. We have very hot soil here, and maybe that has something to do with it, but there's no doubt I have been missing a lot by digging solid mid and high tones most of the time. You learn something new every day I guess.
Crappy-sounding iron tones, here I come!
