What target separation mode were you using? High Trash or Low Trash may give readings of FE 1 or 2 and CO 49 or 50 on large silver. If you were using one of those, try going over the ring again in Ferrous Coin. I think the detector will pick it up, even if the 50CO line is blocked out.
Cheers,

It's a lot easier to get an overload signal using the 6", so I could see a large ring being that close might skew the FE-CO numbers up to the top corner. I did notice that the detector had no trouble sounding off, once he put it in a pattern that accepted where the ring IDed.

that ring was ID ing at 42 with 50 blocked and with no sound open the 50 line and same place 42 with audio.
I have put this all out there nothing else left for me to do

Well crud, I will have to play with some settings to see if I can get any of my big silvers to re-create this.

just looking at the US silver dollar pretty close in size to the crown https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crown_(Australian_coin) US $ bit smaller but the crown comes in at 01-38 not where I would expect it too what do those old silver $ read?
pays to be on the ball I think with this detector it has a few quirks that's for sure.
try a 999 1oz silver coin if you have one see what that does?
it still is a great detector but I wouldn't want to miss something nice cause I didn't know about these things.
I don't have a 8 reale to test they are pretty rare here but they are around anyone got numbers for those?
thanks!
AJ
