Andy Sabisch Coin Program?

Well-known member
Just started using this Coin Program.
It's a nickel magnet I found 3 times the nickels I normally do in the last 2 outing (last two days)?
Anybody else use/see this?
 
Can you post settings?

I went to YouTube and watched Dirtfisher do the program
There is a bunch of people on YouTube that show you how to program the coin program.

nox program or etrac.....I have his etrac program...but not the nox
 
Don’t nickels ring close to gold? If so you could be on a site where others discriminated them out? HH
 
Yes nickel and some gold will Id the same.
The coin program sets 11-13 or 12-13 as high tones.
Most of the nickels were 60's and older
I did dig a lot of screw caps and pull tabs.
But the real treat was this 1870 shield nickel I dug yesterday.

Nice looking shield, congratulations

UPDATE:

I just reprogramed the Andy Sabisch coin mode program using THE HISTORY DIGGERS YouTube video tutorial.
History Digger goes into a lot more detail and rejects pull tabs and such.
Well worth the extra time cause I was digging a lot of pull tabs.

You are correct. The 600 does not have advanced settings. That's ok by me. I find just as many coins with my 600 as I probably would with an 800! The Equinox is a fine detector!

disc pattern would be the same from what I learned for my time That I had the nox 600...just use the pattern with your current settings.
 
I was not aware of this program, but looked at some videos about it.
I can see some benefits to it, but to me with all the segments discriminated out, it is next to impossible to tell how much trash you are working with in the ground.
I have had my Equinox for about a year and a half.
Last year I used it exclusively and found more nickels that I ever have and I was using pretty much the factory settings, but not all metal mode.
I just trained my ears as what to listen for and it did not take long to get to the point where I could do well with nickels even in trashy sites.
My best day I had was 40 nickels and I posted my finds.
That day I only dug quarter and nickel signals. (pictured below)
As far as what I have experienced with the Equinox, it does very well with ID'ing nickels and only gets fooled now and then by beaver tails and pencil erasers.
In short, the Equinox is great at finding nickels if you take the time to learn what to listen for.

Extremely impressive Felix!! One day while digging nickels, your favorite metal is going to pop out of the ground!

You might have mentioned that a time or two 🤣 I also learned not to get between you and gold 😂 When we get together to hunt( in order not to get tackled in the field) I’ll keep the gold finds to myself 😁

I have found two Shield Nickels that came in with a target ID of 10. V-Nickels that register 11, Buffalo's at 12 and Jefferson's at 13. Anyone notching these numbers out will surely leave good targets behind. Just my .02
