where did you get it? Looks like that 5" coil has some good depth. I like your idea on the plastic jug to bounce back the sound, think I'll try that. I mostly use headphones but when I'm out in the brush I don't like the phones because of snakes. Thanks for sharing. HH John

I got it from Mission metal detectors in coon rapids MN, its the standard gold bug and its just as deep as the pro . I can hit a nickle at 10" in the all metal and its not an iffy signal silver is less deep i sopose because of the frequency, i get dimes at 7" and soft signal 8"in all metal disq mode a dime loud strong signal at 4" and soft a t 5" and a wisper at 6"

like i say I was amazed that in all metal i could hit a nickle at 10" deep with a good sound , this disq mode is average depth, and it loves gold , very sensitive to gold not silver , dont get one thinking you will find deep silver its not going to happen , very avreag depth on silver , but gold it hits very hard and you will dig tabs and foil at least i do , you can disq out the foil but if a ring is under the disqed item you will not hear it it will mask as all detectors

I feel you are in the vicinity of the old home Gunnar as you are always finding house related items ( silverware, stove parts, etc) Keep at it bro one of these days you will find something other than iron and I hope you get it "live" on camera. I feel this way as there is more then just that one seated dime in the area. My philosophy is this: if I find one old coin at a site, I am bound to find more. (every site that I have ever hunted and found at least one old coin, be it a wheat or IH cent or a silver dime, more has always followed) And the same will happen for you too. You have persistence and it will pay off. Look forward to your video productions - Jim

Well, I am certainly not a prophet but from things I have experienced over the years in the field, you are not on barren ground. You proved this to me just a little while back with the indian head cent you found. Keep at it bro - Jim

No, I'm asking about your shovel or scoop. Did you make it or did you purchase it? It's neat looking. Please elaborate.

Thanks

Nice video, I love relic hunting, you never know what you might dig up.
:clapping:
I've also heard the gold bug does better in iron than the F75, but not as deep on coin size targets.

mark i like the all metal of the gold bug , its deep and if I ground balance to a chunk of basalt it even starts getting deep on silver coins, I really do like this machine . its depth is not impressive on disq mode with the 5" coil I would say about 5" on a dime but cold rocks will maks coins in disq but its all metal can slice right thru the cold rocks and hit a good target, I hope to hunt a river crossing that is loaded with basalt stones and see what it gets, all metal
