Today, was the second day I used my new 6" coil. I went to a school baseball field complex. I had been there before on a couple of occasions.
At first I focused on areas that I knew I had detected before. Right from the start I was hitting some good targets. I moved onto some areas that I had not detect before and it seemed like I was in semi-virgin country.
What I liked about this coil is that I was able to get in close to the chain link fences and various metal supports. Due to the trashy can slaw/pull tabs I was running the rig in Park 1, 5 tones rather than my usual P2, 50T settings. I found that the small discarded aluminum chain link tie wires were displaying a solid 18 on the VDI. After awhile I skipped all those numbers by the fences.
For the day I recovered about $24.00 in Clad. As Mudpuppy would say, this is worth about 20 dug mercury dimes.
This new coil is a very nice addition for the way I detect and how easy it unmasks coins that otherwise probably would have been unfounded!
