Set the disc at 0 or 1 max. Set your sensitivity just below where you don't get a false signal.

Turn your disc to 0... you will be eliminating ironbut letting everything else thru.... Adjust your sens just below falsing when you move it rapidly....Only time and reading a bunch of posts here about sounds, setting and operation will make you 1 with it.... High tones are coins, low-nulling is bottlecaps/iron and the rest only digging will get you to know which pitch is what treasure/junk.... It takes a bit to learn, but listen to each sound before you dig and it will soon be clear as what is in the sand.....

What Les and Dhunter said. And for a time, I suggest you dig everything for two reasons...A) you'll get a much better feel for what your machine tones are telling you and......B) you'll learn to trust what your machine tones are telling you. Once you get past this, you and your Excal will be digging a lot more good targets.
