    masking

    I just thought i would put in my 2 cents worth about the masking issue, I have been finding a lot of coins that other detectors have missed due to being masked by what i call "hot rocks". They are similar to a lava rock and they read as metal in the ground but once dug up they don't. This week I...

    help with vdi numbers

    I was just wondering if any of you could share vdi numbers that you specifically dig that dont fall in the penny, nickel, dime quarter etc. I hunt in areas that you would need a backhoe and a screen to sift everything that reads solin in both directions. I generally watch my vdi numbers and dig...

    my finds this week.

    Friday i found a 1944s wheat and a 1910 census taker badge at the old house i have been hunting. The badge was on the internet and was only made for the census taken in 1910. It was worn under the lapel and only shown if needed. It has lost its pewter color but other than that it is in good...

    Yet another question??

    Does the 4th tone have any advantages for coinshooting here or is it mainly used for older coins like in great britain. The reason i ask is most of my readings in the 70's range are screwcaps. I read elsewhere where a gold coin was found with a reading of 70 on the vdi??? I use the 3 tone as i...

    1907 indian head found.

    I listened to all of your advice and took it with me today as i hunted...It seems that the biggest mistake i was making was i was hurrying too much and not listening close enough. The old homeplace i have been hunting for @ a month gave up a 1907 indian head penny today at 6 inches. I just knew...

    Another question for experienced t2's

    I have another question for any of you who have experienced this... I have gotten faint repeatable signals that dont give a digital readout on the T2. Have you ever dug these and if so were they good targets? Will increasing the sensitivity cause the digital readout to work? Some of the places i...

    question for all T2 experienced users

    If you are hunting in a trashy area and you get say "3" different numerical readins of say 56...82...78 and the 82 never lock in before going to the adjacent # do you dig? I havent been digging unless the # will lock on solid in both directions. I guess what i am really asking is what is the...
