T2 For Coins?

RLOH

Well-known member
I had a vacation day today and the snow melted and the temp got up to 60 dgrees here in NE Ohio. I bought the T2 to hunt coins with and up until today, I only had it out once. I went to two spots that always give up wheats and silver and the T2 proved it's worth as a coin shooter. I found over 100 coins, 12 wheats, 2 Buffalo nickles, three rings(one gold and two silver) and two mercury dimes. I found both silver dimes in the last half hour of hunting and up until that point, I thought maybe silver coins didn't agree with the T2. One of the mercs was 9 inches deep and probably 4 of the wheats were in that range. I purposely stopped digging 71 to 75 shallow coins as these were all crusty zincs. I hunted 7 hours and this detector is so well balanced that my bad wrist never hurt, but my back is another story. This truely is one heck of a detector. Today, I played with the all metal mode and it worked great. I did run into some electrical interference, but by dropping the sens from 78 to 72 corrected that and many of the deep coins were found at the lower setting. This detector pinpoints like a dream. I checked many of the signals in the three tone mode, but I did most of my hunting in the two tone mode with the sens at 10. Now for my problem; I am going to keep this detector and one of my old favorites will have to go. I just can't see keeping three detectors so it looks like my CZ6a might be heading to the classified forum. This will pain me, but something has to go. R.L.
 
Good hunting Ray, sorry you have to get rid of one of you old favorites. Sound like you have a new favorite now though.

Sounds like you had a nice day in the field. I've had my T2 out for 3 good hunts and have gotten some good civil war relics from each time out, so the Exlporer XS is going to have to sit for a while. The more I use it the T2 the more I like it. I hunted all day the first time out and I never once thought about changing arms. I did get a little tired from all the digging, but if there might be a nice cw button or bullet there I'll dig all day. This corn field was where Shermans corps crossed and was one of the major river crossings. This area has been hunted hard but the T2 is going to pull some more stuff out. With the T2 if there is any doubt about whether you have a target, just pinpoint it and if there is something there then it will sound off. Happy hunting.
 
Find a dime nickle or quarter at 5 inches....turn your sensitivity down to 30 and try it again 40 and so on....I guess that's helped me a lot in understanding just how sensitive this T2 really is. And then go out there and Git-r-done! hehehe
