1775 King George III

[MXTerer]

Found this morning. Using "High Trash". High trash seems to give better ID. In ferrous coin there are a lot of targets that read coin ID's

Wow that's nice and worth a bit more then our georges

 

[earthmansurfer]

Wow, what a nice coin. Congrats!

I find the opposite - High trash jumps a bit, especially on poorer metals like zinc (and at depth). Ferrous coin is very stable for me but yes, it can false more.
What is your ground mineralization like? Mine is somewhat iron mineralized, that must be something...
