after reading about TTF and how good it is in iron, I decided to force myself to slow down and learn it. After watching a couple youtube videos, Thanks G4E, to see what to look for I head out to an old park we have beat to death over the last several years. It is to the point that if you find a wheatie, it is a good day. I was looking for only deep signals and I passed a lot of shallow stuff today. The first was a wheatie at about 6 inches. Took only about 15 minutes to sniff this out. Over the next half hour, I manged 3 more wheaties. They are 1917, 1919, 1926, 1944. I was running out of time as I had things to do and I new it was going to be a short hunt, so I went over to an are that has produced many silvers and indians in the past. The reuslt was this beautiful 1845 half dime. Every signal had iron all around it. I am sold on TTF. I used the stock coil today, but next time I get a chance to hit it again, the X-8 with be my choice. :detecting:
 
Beautiful coin! You are definitely right about TTF. Once I learned it, it is all I use anymore
 
WOW! What an Incredible find from a well worked area! TTF is like having a secret weapon. It still amazes me that there are awesome coins like that still left in parks. I know the hole hurts the value, but I think it adds so much character. You can definitely tell they used a square nail to punch it out. Congrats on your Beautiful Half Dime, That is a tough one to find! :thumbup:
 
Great finds - congrats !

Yes, the more you use 2TF the more you get tuned into it.
You might want to consider getting a small coil in the future if possible - 5" - 6" or a 4.5" x 7" - the smaller coils separate better in heavy iron areas and really make the good targets stand out !
 
Thanks for the advice. I have a Sunray X-5 & X-8 coils. It is supposed to quit raining this morning, so I hope to go back and see how they do.
