>:tongue: First let me say I don't think this true. A man told me yesterday that he was hunting for hogs and got one . And he got up to the hog that was dead, in the hogs front foot there was a $20 dollar gold coin in between the toes. He thinks from digging. A little for out for me.
I have been hunting for 17 years and the total clad = coins 173,705, $10,544.50. And about 9000 silver coin and most of this was found with a Fisher of some kind, have had other detectors but for not long.
If you will look at the CZ ( CZ & 3d's) the most gold rings hit in foil & pull tabs & nickels are to the right of that. That separates some trash. On all the other detectors the gold rings hit in nickel, foil, & tabs. The old CZ will make it a little better to find gold rings. Not saying that...
Well went for a short hunt today with the cz 5 & 5 coil and got 1.02 clad, 9 wheat, 1942 quarter, 1920-s dime. The dime looks to me to be in ms 60 or better??
I took this past wed. some war time nickels and sold them. They gave me .50 per nickel and I had $27.00 of them. That is @270.00. And yes I did find all of them in the past.
It has been very hot here so I took the old cz5 with the 5 coil and got 1,27 clad, 19 wheat, 1944, 44-d, 41-d, 34-d dimes. It is very hard to beat the old CZ's.
I am using the x5 coil on the etrac and the question is would it be better to us deep on and fast off are what ,are would it make a difference with the little coil. What would be the best setting??
