Been there with the wife's back surgery.....Wouldn't wish it on anyone.

Have fun on your hunt and I hope the misses heals up as quick as possible.

HighVDI it’s scary as hell

Hope your wife recovers ok and fast. It is stressful when your spouse has illness or surgery. I went through that and had to manage lot of different meds and pain pills. It is a complex thing to deal with for the care taking spouse. I would get so upset with myself when I forgot to give some meds on time. Bless you and your wife.

EXACTLY!!! I feel like I’m not doing enough and what I’m doing is not good enough. Ugggh

Truth, wanted to show you how an E-TRAC reads a $1 Gold coin. 11(ferrous) and 11(conductive).

Reads exactly the way a beavertail from an old pulltab reads. Bet I dug thirty beavertails and over one-hundred pulltabs this week. I look at it this way, the fact that I am at a location that is littered with pulltabs tells me that I'm in a good location because everyone else has discriminated these out.

Here's a target from two days ago that read 12-25, just like an old pulltab with a beavertail...

Gorgeous!!! Wow that’swhat I’m talking about!!! Keep it up SD51

 

[Truth]

Why were fidget spinners a thing? People drink their drinks, talk with their buddies and fidget with the pull tab until it breaks off. It takes a few seconds and most do it without thinking about it, probably.

Some charitable organizations actually collect the things to be recycled at the aluminum scrap metal rate. There was a false rumor running around that collecting a gallon of these things would get someone an extra hour on a dialysis machine. Not true, but the rumor persists. So that encourages the practice even further.

Truth - hoping your wife recovers soon and successfully from her back surgery.

Also, when trying to get a reference VDI off a coin in a card mount, be mindful of the effect of the card mount staples on the signal, especially for small and/or mid-conductive coins like the gold piece or trimes.

Thank you V [emoji1317]

Very nice digs, Truth!

I will pray for your wife's recovery; meanwhile, don't beat yourself up. It's hard work caring for someone, even when it's someone you dearly love -- and it's clear you do!
