IS IT NORMAL

[curtis n]

For my se with 6x8 coil on it -to hit numbers of F 7--C25---7--28--7-29 -7-26--
3-29---3-28 4--27 on a zinc cent --i hit 7--29 -7--28 a lot thinking it is a quarter only to find
a penny ---also find a lot of stuff -on some of the same numbers =silver dimes- silver quarters

Much more useful information watching cursor placement, movement, and flutter instead of numbers.

Those digital reading will drive you nuts. They change so quickly based on coil position, sensitivity, minerals, and depth of the target. Learn the number if you want as a means to double check a target, but like Bryce said.... watch the smart screen for the best results. I cant say ive ever seen a quarter hit those readings thou.... normally just a penny or dime.... especially when close to the surface.

I agree with Bryce.
Maybe I'm too simplistic about it, but I listen for a good sound and just keep lookin' for the cursor to stay in the upper right hand field in smart find when I hit a target.
Then I know it's got a high percentage of being a good hit.
Listen to the money talk

I like the #'s too but good useful knowledge here!
