Here's my GC 1010 made in China and with brand name Lafayette. Any ideas what MD it corresponds in the USA??? <IMG SRC="/metal/html/pulltab.gif" BORDER=0 width=54 height=24 ALT="sB">
 
Looks cosmetically like bounty hunter brand. Man I would love to read that warranty...or is it in Chinese...
 
It doesn't indicate 10 cents on the display, but it should read a dime as 25 cents. I'll try as soon as I pull out a dime from my collection.
It is extremely correct, especially in depth, if it sounds something, then there's something under. I've dug very few holes, but they went pretty deep, almost giving up on the targets but sure enough, there was always something under. I just got it a couple of weeks ago. I might have a problem with some coins here in Italy since different coins are made of aluminium alloys so I'll have to decide whether to dig up pull-tab signals too. I did make some air tests with different metals and coins. I've noticed that if I go over a certain object not iron, alot of times, it will eventually change to an iron reading. Is this due to polarization?
 
Finally did it. <img src="/metal/html/clap.gif" border=0 width=20 height=30 alt=":clap">
I got out 2 Canada Dimes from 1940 and 1983.
All readings for 1983 dime displayed the 1 cent area on the screen (all-metal, disc, notch) at 1 inch and 6 inches with sensibility at about 80%.
All readings for 1940 dime displayed the 25 cent area on the screen (all-metal, disc, notch) at 1 inch and a far reaching 9 inches always with sensitivity at 80%. As I said, so far it has proven to be very precise. As to batteries, it takes 2 9-volt batteries and I still have the first pair in it (very little detecting time, but lot's of fun at home practicing). Now all I have to do is wait and see how long it will last before conking out. <img src="/metal/html/sleep.gif" border=0 width=26 height=33 alt=":sleep">
