In another topic we discussed techniques for finding the deep target. In this topic I would like to know as realistic as possible How deep are your deep coins? Do you guesstimate the depth? When you find a deep target. Do you measure from the top of the soil to the target or from the bottom of your coil to the target? Do you just go by the depth meter? I believe that the majority of the coins we find are from the surface to 3 to 4. Some are 5 to 8 and then only a few in the dirt would be any if at all deeper than that. I realize that coins in the sand would get deeper or coins in areas that flood freqently. I can also see that a coin might be deep in someones front yard, if they tilled/moved the soil.
