    Got a nice class ring today.

    Dusted off the Omega 8000 v4…

    and detected for two hrs in very cold windy day. Found 3 dimes, 2 nickels and about 6 Pennie’s. The surprise was finding an indian head penny at bout 4-5 inches. Can’t get a date off it. May soak in peroxide to see if that helps.

    Garrett Carrot mode question...

    Can anyone tell me if the vibration mode wears the batteries down faster then audio? Like using the vibrate mode. Have difficulty adjusting the sensitivity. Believe I have it at medium power setting as full is just too much. Thanks.

    More Goldbug finds...

    Gonna have to nickname this the Silver Bug. Went to an old fairgrounds for 3 hrs. Detected the parking field. Used the Delta's 8 inch concentric on the GB. Hard ground, very trashy, but the coil worked great. Got about $3.50 in mostly rusty clad. But did manage to find two war nickels, 1945 s...

    Gold Bug all metal ID

    Hmm when I test coins in the all metal mode the large two digit number in the middle is much lower then when in disc. I thought that number identifies the object but I guess not. The manual states the arc across the top identifies the object. Guess I will have to retest my coins and check that...
