Hi all! There's a lot of times i go to hunt at the park in town and challenge myself on finding a ring or something in the jewelry category. With my Bandido i search the grass areas of the football and baseball fields by the bleachers and walking paths. I simply get a target under the coil and then turn my disc up to 6. If the target nulls out i will dig, especially if it does after 4.5. 95% of most gold rings null out by 6 on my Bandido. As you know this equals trash, but we also know it equals gold. Now this holds true on my Bandido and could be completely different for another detector. Sometimes im not in the mood for bending down and digging that many targets. So, this is another little game i do which i call my quarter/silver program. It's simple and im sure many of you do it also and that is to turn my disc all the way up to max. When i get a solid read i will lift my coil up just a tad and if it starts to null away i know its a quarter instead of a can. I have done this many times and today was no exception. Many times i will get two or three quarters in one spot(because they are on top of one another) and before you know it you have several dollars in your pocket. On several occasions i have pulled nice silver rings and other silver niceties. (including the hair barret which banged in nice and clear) I was doing this very thing today and you always dbl ck your hole because of the chance of quarters on top of one another. Lo and behold today i got that second hit and below the first quarter up pops this .999 fine silver pendant.(weighs 16 grams!) Oh yea! (does anyone know the meaning of the emblem?) You ask how my quarters are so clean, no not a tumbler. (the nickles were eyeballed in the grass) On 3 different times i have gone to the bank(also different banks) and the same response, "Oh, we can't possibly take those, we would'nt want to hand those back out to our customers." So, if you put them all togeather the weight alone will cost you out the ying yang to get reimbursed from the government. My solution and (some of you might not like this) is to drop them in the vending machines and hit coin return, wahla clean quarters. Thanks for looking and happy hunting, Detectahead
