2nd day out with my new used whites.
Tried a very old park and man-o-man did i hit bottle caps. Can't pass up a good signal cause i dug up 3 clad quarters, 2 clad dimes and 2 pennies...but pull tabs and bottle caps reined.
Guess the area hasn't seen much detecting cause i think most good TH'ers woulda got a lot of the junk out of the way.
I'll start takin pics of this stuff some day but I'm happy with my finds for an hours worth or rain drop dodging.

Cant believe this area hasnt been hit hard. Used to be a swimmin area and ice skating rink before becomming a concrete pool years later.
The park dates back to the 1840's so I'm bettin i'll turn out some goodies.

Last time I detected in that park, although a different area, i turned up indian heads and barbers. It was more secluded than the obvious picnic shelters that I was at today so I wasnt finding the junk I was today. Huge park close to home, within 15 min drive. Guess where I'll be in my spare time?

If it makes you feel any better it seems the Explorer Likes bottle caps and twist off tops. They give off a high tone and fall in the middle of the graph sometimes. Very tricky but like you said you can't not dig them for fear of missing something good.
 
Dig all you can and you could just get a signal at the right time that a real nice ring or coin pops out of the hole. :)
 
First off let me say, Welcome to Tnet, you'll enjoy it here. Second Congrats on your new White's. What model did you get? Third, you've hunted before so you know if you want the gold you got to dig the pull tabs and bottle caps. Just no way arond them. Happy Hunting and welcome back to the sport!

I bought a used whites 6000Di series 2.
Years back I had the 6000di Pro but gave it up for really stupid reasons.
But I'm back and zealous as ever.
