Well I'm finally feeling better and couldn't wait to try out my new machine ! I went back to the school I hunted two weeks ago and found some wheats , three silver dimes and rings . I thought this would be a day of learning so I listened to all the whispers of high tones . First deep target was a 1935 S wheat ! It was at 7 inches . Next few good targets were three old buttons ranging from 5 - 7 inches . The next cool item was a spoon with a patent date of Dec. 29 , 1909 . The last and best was a old sterling ring that was at 8 inches ! It was only a +70 and very iffy at that . When I got down to the ring it was a +86 VDI . These were all items I missed with the M6 . I think I'm going to love this machine !

Congrats on a yet another ring. The machine will be great. MXT's hit gold hard so your gold count should go up. FYI...I do find my MXT to give lower VDI numbers the deeper an item is.

Thanks for the info on the VDI numbers ! I thought I found a gold ring this morning but the 10k test just doesn't hold long enough to be gold .
