Raw gold is a different animal than jewelry. It can be combined with bits of minerals like iron that would null a VLF. The PI might well pick that up ..... not because of the gold. The shark is running at what 24 uS? Thats normally a little larger piece of gold that some models that run at 15 uS. What was your settings on the Nox? Beach 2 has a couple of double whammys in the water...... salt setting, and manual says its already running at a reduced POWER.
 

dewcon4414 thank u for pointing this all out sounds like u have used a nox ....i never used a nox thats y am asking whats better on yankee nuggets (small) to java nugget (big ship size) ,,, so nox small targets better and sand shark deeper on the java size ??? what i seen on a nickel they are the same ....i know terry knows the answer probably found the treasure at hells gate east river already with his nox
 

Hate to say this, but a 1-gram nugget will be missed by the Sand Shark completely. I sold my Sand Shark as soon as the Equinox became available. The Sand Shark was not built or intended to be a nuggetshooter. It is a straight-up saltwater SCUBA machine that is much more stable underwater than the Whites or Garrett competitors.

Beach PI machines are not good nugget hunters, none of them.
