I Got My Search Coil Over Some Large Silver Today

[tabman]

The first site that I hit this morning was a 1950 home. I started a grid search of the front yard and got my search coil over a nice chunky 925 silver ring and found a girl scout pin and a couple of wheat pennies before the owner showed up. He had several guys with him to help with getting the house ready for the next renters. They were making all kinds of racket so I left for a quieter place to detect until they leave.

The next site that I went to was a 1952 home. Right out of the gate I found a wheat penny and the very next target turned out to be a 1941 Walking Liberty Half Dollar. The VDI numbers on the F75 were rolling between 88 and 89. That was a happy surprise! My next silver coin was a 1945 Mercury Dime. Its VDI numbers were rolling between 75 and 76.

Not wanting to over do it, I headed for the house.

This was my 56th hunt for the year and my silver coin total for the year now stands at 166. All done without getting skunked on a single hunt.

My F75DST detector settings: 9.0, Sensitivity 85, DE Mode, 4H Tones, Disc Level 0, GB 60. Cibola settings: Discrimination set just high enough to barely discriminate out a nail, full sensitivity, a tad negative on GB and a sight threshold.

Tabman,

9.0 is DST off, correct? I take it you want to max out every ounce of F75 performance unless EMI forces your hand and you have to go 9.1. Have I got that right? (Great finds as usual, btw).

Thanks! I'm may hit the first site again tomorrow. I'm thinking that there might be a gold ring there. I didn't go over the entire front yard and the back was being cut when I left, so the swinging should be easy. Hopefully I can catch the neighbors out in their yards while I'm there and get permission to hunt their yards.
