Just got a coinstrike and headed out to the local high school. The school was built in the late 1800's and is going to be torn down this year. Its pretty warm here today and I broke a good sweat but it was worth it. The coinstrike is a sweet machine but has a bit of a learning curve. I seen a few people say it loves round things and that holds true to mine as well. The ground was good so I ran "10" sensitivity, "0" threshold, "99" disc, and no tracking. Very little trash as I was able to tell trash from coins pretty easy. The machine will lock onto coins hard! No doubt I was about to dig up a coin when it locked on. Coins were anywhere from 2-8 inches and all were very clear signals. Pinpointing was dead on and gave a good idea what the depth was going to be. I dug everything that locked on between 10-12 and from 20-40. Heres the take, in a little over an hour I had 7 quarters, 3 nickels, 5 dimes, and 7 pennies for a total of $2.47. Not bad for the first time out with the machine. No old silver today but its there and Ill be back. I think I will enjoy the coinstrike for years to come. Oh, the picture only shows 6 quarters because I forgot I had another one in the truck until after I took the pic.
