Got out yesterday for about an hour fifteen up till sunset after filling my belly up with Thanksgiving dinner. There's a small old barn still sitting where a farm/old homestead used to be across the street in the woods. No spectacular old coins or silver but targets, clad, to be dug. I hunted right in front of the cover on the side of it. This place is really infested with iron, old nails, pieces of barbed wire and just big iron. Using the small coil on the CoRe the machine stood out big time. I've ran a lot of machines and have never had anything just flat out separate so well. I mean iron in every shovel full as to be expected here but the ability to pic out a penny or dime or rather let you know it's there is uncanny. There has to be something special about this coils detection field, sharp, narrow, or whatever, I just know it works very well. Dug coins up to six inches deep within sometimes half inch movements of the coil itself from iron. Very sensitive seems like and does not appear to blend metals near as much as other detectors in the IDing of them.
I've only got about 2 hours on the machine since I got it. What is intriguing me is with the headphones there is a special halo sound that is unmistakable when the detection field goes over something round. It has a very smooth almost crescendo with a fuzzy sound for a lack of better words as it travels past the target. When you hear the report and you slow the coil down to just barely moving it is very pronounced, it's a dig me now sound to me. I noticed it air testing the machine last week and it's the same in the ground. A very slow movement accentuates it. Here's a pic of where I was digging.
Here's the targets from that spot, like I said nothing special but lot's of ferrous material in the ground.
I haven't ran the stock and the large coil yet but if they have some of the same attributes this small coil does, watch out. The small coil is superb.
