I didn't think that I was going to have a good day at all. I headed out this morning to a new site, but when I got there I decided that I would need the protection of a SEAL team to feel even halfway safe. Super bad area.
I got the hell out of there and went back to a site that I had already detected a few days earlier. There wasn't much left there, so I left for another site.
When I got to the new site I started off by finding a wheat penny that was nearly on top of the ground under a huge pine tree. I worked around the pine tree some and got a loud high audio tone and a VDI number of 30.
No matter how I moved the search coil about the VDI number wouldn't budge off of 30 and the high audio tone remained steady. I new it had to be something good. I dug down about 2 inches and popped a man's 14k gold wedding band. My second gold ring in the same amount of days. Happy happy happy.
My settings: 9.0, 0 discrimination, 4H audio tone, DE mode, and full sensitivity. It was running really quiet even close the power lines.
