It started off pouring down this morning right after I met my buddy and started down the road.. luckily it stopped shortly after and allowed us to get a good day of detecting it.
I managed to recover and return a nice ring to its owner and found 40 quarters.. by the way, nice Merc dime!!!

Nice older merc and it looks like the 17 does not have the double liberty. That's one coin on my wish list.
A week ago Sat I hunted in a drizzle ALL day and it was only about 48 degrees that day :sad:

As long as it's a high conductor like copper or silver, it hits hard and predictably.
The 1917 penny was @ about 8", and it rang in clear as a bell. I couldn't have missed it.
There is very little "iffy" with these new 3kHz coils. If it sounds faint, broken, or scratchy, it isn't a coin. TID's can jump around a little, not usually more than a notch or two depending on attitude to the coil, but clear repeatable high tones are almost always good targets.

Pretty close to the same. Because of the different ammount of windings in the various frequencies, they don't all weigh exactly the same anyway.
I think that Randy's post on them lists the weights.
