Planning on getting a pro. Can anybody let me know how the pro is performing on the silver coins?
Just curious, how many silvers have people gotten since start using the pro?

Hi everyone, new guy here. I got my ATPro last spring. It is my first detector. It took some time to understand what it was telling me and I'm still learning but if you stick with it, you will get silver. That little coin by the ring is a 10 ore. I think it's Swedish but it's silver. As a newbie, I'm very happy with the silver count I have so far. Sorry about the fuzzy pics, the lens on my camera phone is scratched. The bracelet is sterling and the front says Don Sanders. The inscription on the back reads, "Mom & Dad 4-26-45". Wish I could find the owner.

Since metal detectors respond best to high conductivity, and since silver is the best conductive metal known to science, any metal detector performs very well on silver. Copper is a close second.
Well that Isn't entirely true. Machines with frequencies from 5-15 kHz respond best to high conductors. However, over that, they usually respond well to low conductors. Hence, relic hunters use high frequency machines to pick out the deep iron. At 15 kHz, the AT Pro is perfect for both coin hunting and relic hunting. Those silver coins should really sing!
Well it certainly is 100% entirely true absolutely, regardless of frequency.
