The weather has been at least trying to cooperate.
Higher than average temps but it's been very damp!
This can be a good thing as it helps in depth.
So, today I went back to my test area at a local spot.
I've been experimenting with the way the deeper signals
tend to change the normal VDI. Deeper coins typically don't
ring up at the normal numbers. Like a wheatie usually
shows up somewhere between 72-78. Unless it's very deep or
very corroded. (And I've found that deeper ones tend to
form a rather heavy green coat).
I intended to do just this today but it gets mighty tedious.
So, I broke the day up with a couple easy jaunts across the
usual fare. The woodchip playpen, the bus loading areas, etc.
It helped to make kind of wet/nasty day into a fun one.
See if you agree:
In the first place, when one's first experimental plug
shines up like this....well...how bad can the day be? LOL
The first precious metal for me this year.
A pretty wide array of finds! Kept the day interesting!
A cover off some colonist's privvy, circa 1606.
The coins were all over the place.
This one was a complete surprise.
I think Fishy is trying to emulate the Blingster.
Yep...that's a "10" As in 10k, it passes the test too.
Blingie has a double! Shiny AND sparkly!
Thanks for peeking!

Looks like Blingie and Fishy are content for the time being!
