Kind of jewelry

Played around today in the Jewelry mode. 1/2 hour lunchtime hunt. Was able to get the sensitivity up to 90(!), which I liked as at home in my test garden it gets flighty after 50 or so (must be the power & telephone lines at the road out front. Still a little "twittery" but not too distracting. Discrim at 6 and no notch, 4H tones. Found an aluminum religious medal (Czech?) that read a steady "72" and a few coins. The nickels were high and sweet audio, and the '57 was a good 8" (showed 7 in pinpoint) and shows some pitting. Also dug some trash. The bottle cap and foil I figured as such and dug anyway just to be sure. The punch-out tab fooled me for sure, and the other tabs sounded good enough that I dug.

Thinking I may have to alter my Lesche. The "ears" make it hard to dig a small hole more than 7" deep. :laugh:

I have to do further work in the jewelry mode. It falses enough that I end up taking twice as long (double sweeping spots to confirm "real" hits) but does seem to be more sensitive to items.
 
Nice finds Charlie and thanks for the report. I have hunted a few places that I could use 90 sens easily. The places we hunted yesterday afternoon I couldn't get above 50. Still found coins easy at 5-6" thou.
