I found this small metal piece 8" down . See how small compared to the dime and half the width . I don't know if this is a good thing or bad thing . Lol

If you can find an old button at 8" you have a very good machine that will NAIL a coin or gold ring at the same depth or deeper - A Blessing in my eyes!

I was joking , but you did have to dig eight inches . I don't think its a button , not real sure what it is . Not worth anything . I keep digging and could not find anything . Then when I did , started laughing and said you got to be kidding me .

It's a great thing! Just ran my Vaquero yesterday and its so sweet! It blew the socks off that popular VDI machine I sold ( on depth), especially super tuned. So smooth, quiet, and best of all it's light as a feather! No screens for me!

New to hobby but I returned to two vdi machines . They were just quesses anyway and bad at that . Lol the screens just make people feel better I believe . If the screen was only 10% accurate then Hell thats way less than quessing .

Maybe so the delta was not a whole lot cheaper than the cibola . And more expensive vdi machines may do better but I will wait till I have more experience to give those a try . I think unless your going to spend more thant $500 just go with a beep and dig .
