    Garrett Pinpointer nickel trick question

    I just got me a G Pro pinpointer. I know about the nickel trick, or washer, but can anyone tell me, why a nickel? Would a dime work better? How about a silver dime? Why or why not? Penny? Why a nickel? I will still keep my X-1 probe on my etrac, but use the GPP as a backup....... HH Dennis
