I had a Dankowsk1 calibrated cz-3d last year, but I threw in the towel after a couple months.
The slower optimum sweep speed was a negative for me, but the biggest issue was the iron falsing.
But the detector kept calling me back. The depth, the enhanced mode and nickels in high tone were all positives that led me to cz-3d #2.
My second cz-3d has now found me some good seconds - my second Barber Quarter and my second and third Standing Libertys both in the same hole. The "d" and "s" mintmarks would have been fortunate, unfortunately no dates.
The one 1920 token looking item that says Modern Health Crusader is kind of interesting. I found out that was a campaign aimed at school kids to prevent the spread of TB. It's actually a pin with the pinback missing.
I've had the detector a couple weeks now and I've been digging a lot of intentional nails to educate myself. So far I've only had two digs that I called nail that turned out to be coins. One was the rosie in the pic below.
I've had more digs that I thought were coins turn out to be nails, but still almost always coin (or some other high conductor) when I thought coin.
There are definitely a good percentage of spots where I'm going to use this detector instead of my AT Pro.
