From the Depths Vol II - Small coin at 8" (Very Short Video)

[earthmansurfer]

Another "Educational Series" volume.

Here is a very small zinc coin (half the size of a penny) at 8".
Nice look at the screen, not too much playing around this time. Listening to the signal, seeing how the pinpoint is symmetrical and no iron nearby.

Enjoy,
EMS

ps - Don't worry, I will go back to experimenting with settings.
pss - Click on "Youtube" in the lower right and watch it there in 480 (much better picture).

Thanks BlankPlanet. I was just running the stock coil. I really like it, after having used the 13" Detech and 6X8 SEF, that stock coil is just sweet, really. If I didn't have the extra cash to get the other two coils I wouldn't be broken up about it. The stock coil is simply a great coil, very light for it's size and a high performer.

Switching coils is pretty fast, but wouldn't it be cool if we could just snap another head on and the wire wasn't involved? Just a quick snap on system when you hit the iron, so you could go to a small coil, or vice versa.

As, you can see, I'm having fun with the videos. I love editing and hope it doesn't get out of control - LOL.

Blank - Well, I can run the stock and 6X8 both at manual 30, so the stock is deeper. I cross checked a deep 8" or 9" small silver ring (on video somewhere) and the stock hit it better, clearly. So, I think the 6X8 is good for 8" - 10" depending on the target. The stock is good till 12". (in my iron mineralized ground)

great thanks for those numbers earthmansurfer very good.

Cool coin, and thanks for your video work !!!!

 

[earthmansurfer]

You are welcome guys (and gals)

Eva - I stopped for the snow and frozen ground (mostly). Now, my back is really sore from the E-Trac so I can only get out once a week. When they make a lighter one, I'll get out more - LOL, but really!

Another cool video, keep 'em coming!

Buy (or make) a harness, you won't regret it.

 

[earthmansurfer]

Hytinaerhi - I got to thank you. I wasn't going to go detecting today at all, to rest my back. But, I do have a "Swingy Thingy" but had been reluctant to use it. What a difference it made, 4 hours was almost like nothing! I filmed some GREAT footage to boot in iron and found my first gold (got it on video.)

Much thanks for the reminder,
Albert
