    Found a Spanish Silver 1/2 Reale Coin /Button Today

    RECOVERY... Is This OK ??

    Hi all, I took some previous advice from an earlier post about recovery. I placed two, well I used gold rings about a foot apart and swept at my normal speed over them and adjusted my recovery so that it picked up both rings. It turns out that I had to set my recovery speed to 20. Is this...
