    Deep Buffalo Nickle!!!

    Well guys it paid off digging those deep 14/15 on the Quattro's TID meter. I pulled out an 1936 S Buffalo nickle today at about 7 or 8 inches. The Quattro gave me a nice loud low tone and I figured it was a nickle. This is my first for the Quattro. John

    Well guys I believe the Quattro very good at finding Nickles. If that low tone is loud and clear it is a Nickle. If the low tone is softer it is a beaver tail. You got to love it. John
