3 hour hunt with the AT Pro and V3i

[MackDog]

What can I say WOW. Started with the AT Pro first signal says VDI of 91 solid silver tone and 8" deep. Dig down 10 " and come out with my second ever Shield nickel it's pretty toasted but shiny on one side. I was disappointed new it sounded like big silver. Rescanned the hole and BANG 91 again pinpointed bottom of the hole and hit a 1899 Barber quarter that had the green mark where it was covered by the shield. Man what a 2 coin spill especially for Spokane. Used the Pro for another hour and a half maybe 27 clad couple of wheats that's it. Switched to the V3i and got a 85 VDI high tone and green freq at 5" I'm thinking silver quarter again, no but a nice 925 ring. Swung for another hour or so get a 86 signal high tone sounds like another quarter but then shows in the red frequency thinking junk but dig it anyway. Get a 1922 merchants 5 buck token? it's in awesome shape. Also got a gold and silver plated butterfly at 6". It seems both detectors are always trying to out do each other so I use them both. The Pro with the Big 17" NEL is heavy so when I tire I switch to the V3i. Thanks for looking and happy hunting

That was a fantastic hunt - I love finding two coins together like that in the same hole. Recently found a 1896 V-nickel in the same hole with a 1909 S Wheat! Very exciting to find old coins in this manner!

I like the v3i 3-frequency analysis feature - very useful info on deeper targets!
