How Well on Bronze Coins??

Would like to know if anyone has used it on Bronze coins.
How does it read? Bronze can read between Foil to Nickle on many coins!:usmc:
Thanks
 
Hi
The lincoln campaign coin I found is brass and read very solid. I will scan it again to be sure but I remeber it was right around 6-20
in digital. A mid tone but not a broken tone. It is the size of a quarter but a little thicker. Its close to bronze but i think the brass is a little harder material. Ones a copper zinc mix the other is copper and tin that being the bronze.

Thanks for the reply, Yes, brass is very good target...Lots of the old bronze have different mixes...Depending on the time of cast.
It can go from foil up to nickle and pull-tabe!
Thanks again
