Popular Post TreasureHunter5 Posted June 24, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted June 24, 2020 Wow! Look at what just came out of my aunts backyard! It looks like a 1976/bicentennial coin collection. It clean up really nice after a lot of work. It was not very deep. I am really glad I didn’t damage the acrylic(I think it is acrylic). I wonder how it got into the ground. Did someone bury it on purpose? Who knows. It is a great display. I can’t believe how nice it is. What do you think? 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GB_Amateur Posted June 25, 2020 Share Posted June 25, 2020 Handsome, and I like all those refracted images of the coins' edges. Good job not scratching it. Another find for the category "what was that doing there??" What are the dates and mintmarks? It looks like the penny is a 1975-? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi, the penny is 1975 D, the quarter and half dollar are 1976 D and the dime and nickel are 1975 P. I can’t believe I is so nice!!!

2Valen Posted June 25, 2020 Share Posted June 25, 2020 Great find and I am just wondering what you were using at the time and what it was showing on the detector. That would be a heck of a signal to understand I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It only has a little needle, and I don’t even know how that works, I put a picture below. I do t really go by a signal because I just dig everything(it works for me as a beginner) if I had a better detector I but it would have been crazy!!!

The sensitivity is also the volume control I believe. Almost any headphone wit a 1/4 inch jack will work. Let me know if you see the jack on it, and if you have a set of headphones that will work.

Hi, it does have a headphone jack. It is not like on on an iPhone, it is a bit bigger.(I don’t have one). I can hear the beep without headphones. I don’t go by the sound of the beep to know what to dig. If it sound like a steady beep I dig. This detector doesn’t have volume control, the sensitivity turns it on.
