    Sounds?

    I have read in some post lately to ignore the Smart Find and go only by the tone. I assume this would be the same for digital. My question - Is it possible for the sound or tone to be the same for 2-29 and 15-29 on the digital screen? The second set of numbers reflect the cross hairs being...

    Found a walker in the woods

    Found this at a park in Louisville today. Almost did not dig because the signal was jumping from silver to pulltab/nickle. But that silver kept screaming. Turned out to be a 1942 nickle in the hole with the half. AK in KY

    Need Help on Coin? ID

    Found what appears to be a coin in very poor shape. The obverse says Carolus III and the date looks to be 17--? The reverse has a Crown and some symbols below it. Some letters I can read in order are REX.M.8R.F.M. The strange thing is it appears to be Silver plated with most of the silver worn...

    I sent my EX back to the factory a week ago. Here is the problem, while searching in IM 16, Audio 1, Ferrous, manual sens@22, gain 7, threshold 8 if the coil is not moved all I hear is the threshold. As soon as I start to move the coil, threshold is gone and I hear a loud hum similar to the pin...

    Loud Humm

    While in Audio 1 the detector makes a loud humm. Quite a bit louder than the threshold. When not moving all I hear is the threshold. In normal audio no humm. Does not matter where the sens is set. Any clues? AK in KY

    Need some help with a couple of items

    I found what I think is a Civil War plate or belt buckle with the letters K.S.G. on the front inside the typical oval. The other item is a coin or token about the size of a silver dollar. The front has a raised face of a man that would remind you of Ceasar.( no hat but has a head band made of...

    To dig or not to dig

    Seems to me after reading many of these post and using many different settings and the iffy signals you pretty much have to dig everything. AK in KY

    About the Halo

    Cody/Glenn It is my understanding that the halo effect is more noticable when the ground is damp. For this reason I always thought the Halo was just the main element in the item leeching into the soil. Right or wrong? AK

    Cody, Special setting for mineralized soil

    Cody, My ground measures -92/-95 on the DFX I used to have. Are there any settings you would recommend for the EX11? I have not found any coin deeper than 4". The sites I am working are as far back as 1780 and the latest is 1890. Thanks AK in KY
