Nickels Nickels Nickels But No Gold For Me Today

[tabman]

I found 7 nickels at a local school during a short morning hunt. I also dug 67 pieces of trash in my quest for gold. No gold, but I did find a handful of clad and a Canadian $2 coin. I was running the Tesoro Eldorado at the preset mark and digging all good repeatable beeps. The preset mark is just a little below where sports drink foil caps discriminate out. This is the same school where I found a silver dollar and a '64 Kennedy half dollar. So, if I hear something that sounds like a hubcap, I'm digging, because the kids at this school lose lots of good stuff.

I'm really liking the Eldorado a lot. Its audio tone is music to my ears, because its not too high or too low. It's perfect for my ears!

Congrats on finding the 64 half dollar and dollar coin in the past. Those are still 2 of the coins I need to find on my list. I have noticed the Tesoros hit hard on nickels. They are one of my favorite things to dig, because it means I am in an area that has not been hunted at all or has been hunted on full disc, plus they are just fun to find. Was the dollar coin in the past a silver dollar? HH

Yep, it was a silver dollar. http://www.findmall.com/read.php?17,1699157

You're right about Tesoros hitting hard on nickels. If I'm finding lots of nickels and pull tabs and no clad coins, I know the location has been hunted, but not for gold jewelry.
