I thought I'd do some more detecting today along some sidewalks and curbs. I was finding plenty of rotten stinking Lincolns and time was running out for me to find a silver coin today. I was working along a stretch of sidewalks and came upon a small block of aluminum ( I put it back on the ground for reference, see first picture) . I almost swept past it with my coil, but I starting thinking there could be something really good under it, so I picked it and put it in my trash pouch and swept the coil over the exact spot where it was laying. I got a sweet sounding audio tone. I dug down and popped a 1940 Mercury Dime. What are the odds?
I love my Genie and Cibola.
I ended up finding a 1940 Mercury Dime, a Large Cent, a Buffalo Nickel, a Play Dime, a few clad coins and several Wheat Pennies (1926, 1956, 1941). I had a great time.
Same setting as usual. A slight hum for the threshold, discrimination set just where a Gatorade Sports Drink Foil Cap discriminates out, slightly negative on the ground balance and full sensitivity. She ran quiet as a mouse until she hit a target. I'm really likely this detector and coil a whole lot. It's so much fun to use.
People who have never used a Tesoro detector don't know what they're missing.
