Took about 100 pieces of iron junk for me to figure out the subtle differences in the sounds that the Sand Shark makes. Doing pretty well on my ferrous to non ferrous ratio by the end of the day. Toe ring is marked
925 so thats cool. Silver today and gold tomorrow....I hope.

Ring days are always good!
 
Nice Digger, did you see how far down that sand shark will pickup those coins?
 
Deep enough in this rock hard sand....getting blisters on my left hand....
 
That's one of the drawbacks of Pi detecting! Hope you get the gold tomorrow!
 
Remember to sweep around at different angles to listen for a "good" threshold tone. Usually iron will give a double beep or a funny drawn out sound. After digging several coins, rings versus junk you will get the hang of it. Remember though a necklace, bracket watch etc , anything other than a round target, may not sound perfect either!

What are you using to dig with, brother? Might be time for a better shovel or a Stealth??
 
Good to see you are getting out with your new machine... And it looks like you are getting it figured out. :)
