Fourth Time Out For the Impact=CHARM!

[Kurios1]

Howdy Folks. Got out for a quick bit of much needed after work therapy. I decided to try a strip of sod just off the tilled field I have been pounding. Glad I did as my first recovery of the hunt was a beaten up 1887 Seated Liberty Dime. First silver for the Nokta Impact and the tone was SWEET! Not very deep. Maybe four inches and no trash masking the target. Made my afternoon for sure. I kept plodding along this strip of sod but, nothing else around the dime but foil, and other trash aluminum and iron.

I got out into the field just a few rows and scored a fat old gold gilded flat button. Shanks broke off and I can't make out any detail. I may have to do some cleaning on this one to get some stamping for the research. Not much else note worthy but, I have been finding too many of these little brass/copper fastener thingies that sound SWEET and crank out HIGH VDI numbers on my machine. I've found them other places and they sure mimic a nice coin signal. I used VLX2 mode again and I really am loving the tones. Learning my foil, can slaw, and iron sounds pretty quickly. Brass, copper, and coins all sound really sweet. Having fun with my new present even though I was "bad" this year! Thanks for stopping by. Kurios1

Just love those Seated dimes! Congratulations on a nice one!

Great stuff, Kurios! Loving that Seated...very nice. Yep, those little brass rivets ring up sweet and high, a tight little signal that mimics a coin...I've had my hopes dashed many a time. You are on a super streak, my friend! Don't stop! I can't get out due to work, I actually have a shiny, new AT Max that hasn't even been past the front door yet...ugh. But,
the days are going to start being a little longer now so I'm hoping to get out and break her in. Keep posting! Ddf.

Nice going on the seated! Yep the Impact loves gold and silver, no doubt about that

Hey is that weather cover on the battery pack the factory one? Looks completely different then the one that came with my Impact Pro package (mine's made out of stretchy material similar to a wetsuit).

Killer finds! I have not played with VLX2 yet. I'm kinda hooked on DI3 at the moment but, maybe when i revisit sites, i will change up the mode to see what happens.

 

[Centsless Detecting]

Nice! Less than a week and the Impact sniffed out the silver!

I really like the the button. Sure is a dandy!

COINgrats!

It's almost a curse having a machine this versatile. So many options to experiment with. If I get one that's working for me I am afraid I won't use all the others. I am sure in time I'll give them a whirl. I am truly loving the machine for certain.

Yes, it's the stock factory cover. It is different than the one's I have for my Makro Racers. I believe the Racers are made of that material you mentioned like a wetsuit. It seems like it should keep the machine safe. Enjoying the heck out of the machine so far. Of course if you have any pointers or favorite settings for your Impact you'd care to share I am all ears. Thanks mate and keep clearing out those ghost towns.

Thanks mate. Getting java'd up and ready to go out on my next adventure. Four days off should be some good therapy for me with hopefully some cool old finds. Ya'll have a blessed weekend!
