Nice hunt Casper. Thanks for providing the techniques. I do use them and it has helped. When I listen for the whispers it causes me to slow down. When I slow down my senses start to take over. Swinging Zen

sponge using smoke signals.

Nice Finds: Are whispers a break in treshold when you pass over the target in the all metal mode with high sensitivity ?
Or are they tone(s)/chirp(s) that the discriminator is not able to classify? Or are they both?

I run with a hum or tone in all metal - these whispers are slight fluctuations in that hum - sometimes it may be a rock or bump in the sand
but when I get the slightest change in tone I recheck - I will usually fan a few inches with my dive boot and recheck
if a true target - the tone will increase slightly - then I dig = 9 times out of 10 these deep signals are keepers

Wow those coins really look corroded. I assume you were hunting salt water beach. Was this on shore or out in the water?

salt water - in about chest deep at low tide - these are not corroded at all for salt water
go thru some of my albums - you'll see some really bad saltwater coins

Mahalo (thank you) for the expanded explanation.
From my experience, it is the same for the excalibur when hunting in all metal mode.
What I am trying to wrap my mind around, is why the ratio of keepers (9 out of 10) would be so high?
Is that unique to the CZ21 metal detector?

I hunt deeper water than most - most places the farther out you go - less junk you get
New England saltwaters - eat iron/steel up - older bottle caps and other small thin steel dissolve up here
aluminum does too in some spots - bottle caps/pull tabs you see in any of most of my pics (from my waters)- usually are more recent
losses and most times are pulled from shallows - entering or leaving the water
if its low tide - and I am out towards my limits at an older spot and I get a faint signal - 9 times out of 10 - its going to be a keeper
by keeper - I don't just mean coins or rings - I mean lead brass copper items too - so a sinker would be a keeper
I also try and take out all the trash I can over the yrs - so older trash will be less and less - hopefully at spots I been hitting for awhile

Casper, as usual you are a wealth of information. Congrats on the nice finds.
