Well I finely done it after 28 years plus and several metal detector`s later, I have found my very 1st real gold coin! I was near the Little River Academy Texas and on a very hot day 6/27/2019 at least 100 degrees F. and about 900 percent humidity and after about 2 hours of hard hunting I finely got the sound and repeating number 52 on my detectors display using channel 1 with all metal on my AT-Pro, and in less than 3. inches I dug my self up a Dos Pesos Mexican coin in a damaged but heavy 14k bezel. what was even better my hunting pal was working his E-800 and was there to see the recovery as well he had the honers of revealing the coin to me as it was locked in a clump of dirt with the pendent edge showing its not a big coin but it was getting bigger and heaver by the moment :D!!! so I finely am able to scratch number 1 on my list of Items I really want to find very happy with this hobby and I am holding steady at 12 gold rings so far for 2019. sorry picture post later
