Excellent clad haul! Next time I would leave the coin pouch in the car and take a wheelbarrow when you hit those sites again!

Looks like you've found your "good" place with the Legend. I use the 6" coil Park 3. How about you? What settings?

Congrats on all the finds! I remember going to the arcades, so I really like the arcade tokens! I remember going to Aladdin's Castle to play games on Saturday's. We payed $5 and got a bag of tokens in a Crown Royal style bag. Once the bag was empty, we were allowed to get refills. So, obviously, we'd pocket a lot of tokens and go get the refill. This way we had tokens to play games throughout the week; until next Saturday!

If you guys are hunting in sites that have a lot of ferrous trash like pull tabs, foil, and aluminum bottle caps, you may want to give M3 or 4 khz a try if you haven't already. M1 is weighted at approximately 15 khz, M2 is approximately 30-40 khz, and M3 is approximately 7 khz. NOTE- M3 was modified in V1.11 to be a very low weighted SMF mode.

Very low frequencies (like M3 and 4khz) will ID high conductors that are masked by ferrous trash, notably better than higher frequencies. The caveat is that low frequencies may also ID some bottle caps higher than usual, and you may not be able to use such low frequencies in highly mineralized ground.
