Went out to a 1927 school today to try my luck. I used the V3i and Detect 12 x 15 coil as usual. On the V3i zincs and wheats come in about the same 52-58 VDI and dominant on the red bar. SO usually if you don't want to dig as many zincs you only dig the deeper ones. I like to clean the ground of most signals so I dig all zincs hoping for a wheat. Today I got six wheats. The shallowest was only 3" down in tree roots on a sloping hill. It turned out to be a 1931 S (only 880,000 minted). Also dug a Catholic Sterling cross and 1963 dime. Plus 49 other clad and 2 pieces of costume jewelry. Thanks for looking and good hunting

I dig nearly every repeatable signal I can unless I am about to fall over from unearthing pull tabs from a park. I dig my zincolns to get my Indians. Very similar VDI numbers on my Makro Racer 2 and other machines as well. Big surprise and score on that way rare old Wheatie!
