How did you retrieved the ring man.. my sand collapse back in the hole at 14 inches to 16 inches .. lol what's your take on ferrous limit as one of the power setting
-
to me this is when target trace comes to play on the manticore, while using very low ferrous limit. I can look at the screen for a glance the behavior of the traces to "gamble" if its iron or possibly non ferrous collocated targets..

wow.. beavertail ID is that high? that is if my understanding of beavertails and pulltabs are in the same family.. From my experience of normal vs overdrive sensitivity, the signal becomes much 'brighter' and much cleaner when using overdrive sensitivity, loosing the small audio nuances that I got from normal sensitivity.. how important these nuances is personal preferences.. I settled on little bit hot on sensitivity but not too overdrive, just because better safe than sorry for very deep target detections on discovery swing. Just like Bruce Lee said.. "I fear not the man who has practiced 10,000 kicks once, but I fear the man who has practiced one kick 10,000 times.. " so i move on and didn't investigate further on normal vs overdrive performances

Manticore vs Deus 2 Program/Setting
fishersari replied to fishersari's topic in Metal Detector Advice & Comparisons
Thank you man.. 1 last question regarding Deep HC vs Relic mode, for deep coin size target.. is there any noticeable differences? I only know that deep HC and relic mode use different platform which relic mode is similar to gold mode except it employ lower frequencies.. -
Manticore vs Deus 2 Program/Setting
fishersari posted a topic in Metal Detector Advice & Comparisons
I have a program on Manticore that I use to check for Mid to High conductivity deep targets. Usually I used it after I hunt with other program based on General and LC. The program is ATHC, depth theme, Ferrous Limit 3-0 and recovery of 3. Would love to know which program on Deus 2 that comparable ( with recovery speed suited to your ground) or posibly even better vs the program above. Thank you in advance. -
shoot.. deus 2, nokta relic PI, echo wave.. which one to fill the desire of the heart?
-
Is it on rich profile? I use enhanced most of the time with medium profile.. simple profile defeat the purpose of using enhanced mode imo.. Would love to use rich profile.. but the modulations is very very low on weak/deep/small targets.. it much worse than normal rich profile on same target

My friend Manticore was dead too yesterday.. but not because of submerge.. dont know why it suddenly blip and turned off.. we hunt at equator/tropical region on high noon and very hot day.. after around 30 minutes of rest thinking maybe it was because of overheat, the Manticore still cant be turn on but if he use charging cable the machine will turn on.. maybe the battery is kaputt, his machine will be out of warranty within 7 months..

I wonder if later on XP will offer new Deus2 with HF2 coil.. if that happen and you can choose only one what would it be? a deus 2 with 9' coil or deus 2 with hf coil 🙂
-
I think you are right.. felt disappointed a bit that i didn't investigate thoroughly? before dig.. Anyway one of the coin was mexicana hispan 8 realle Total coinage At first i thought it was copper coin due to leached copper from other copper coinage onto the silver. Air test VDI is 91
-
We found an upside down bottom part of seramic jar with copper coins.. It was found and dug on discovery swing without investigating further... The ID was 51.. If I knew it was coins in a jar I would love to circle around it and see how it react while it still in the ground undisturbed for 100 years.. Using ATG with 11 inch coil recovery speed 4 with 5-0 ferrous limit, 3 inches down Dont know if the info was enough to help with anything 🙂
-
For me I just do the mental discriminations/blocking.. blocking out certain or multiple VDI does interfere with overall tonal language imho.. Im using 5 region all tones btw and not to mentions the vdi examples that you provided were also where the gold resides.. If you looking for coins, I suggest just open up the related coins VDI, +/- 5 VDI... the same coin on-edge, co located with another nonferrous/ferrous, different depth and mineralizations will gives out different VDI. As many and more experienced detectorists here always said there will be a trade off..
-
I start with ATLC for unknown relic site eventhough its not a virgin site.. ferrous limit 5-0 enhanced with medium profile, 5 regions all tones primarily act like 1 region all tones but will adjust first and/or last region if needed on the fly, recovery speed with m8 are between 3 to 5, m11 between 4 to 6.. for repeated relics site that I hunt, Im using ATG and ATHC with ferrous limit 3-0 depending on iron content..

Fall Beach Season Has Begun
fishersari replied to schoolofhardNox's topic in Metal Detecting For Coins & Relics
great find @schoolofhardNox Thank you for the history of the coins.. I do wonder how these coin ended up in my country (South East Asia) I don't think it was use for domestic legal tender, maybe for international trade and what its value in that time I don't know, there are no history with mexico, if spanish yes. I found these 3 coins in 3 different state with 3 different soil type/conditions, I just washed the coin with plain water. Sorry for hijacking the thread @schoolofhardNox -
Garrett ATX Relic Hunt For Absolute Newbie
fishersari posted a topic in Garrett ATX & Infinium Forum
Hello there, I just got permission to a land dating back from 1600 around 10 acres. The land are palm oil plantations, clay soil and has puddle of water all over the place depending on river water lock. the land is not virgin site as I know many detectorists has entered without owner permission. I have detected a land adjacent to the land in question (with permission of course ) so I assume the soil condition is almost the same.. I know nothing about how mineralize the soil are but i have target sample (tin coin) with me all the time. Sometimes manticore can detect (fresh buried target sample) around 12 inches, sometimes just around 6 to 8 inches (wish the Manticore has mineralization's meter) which i think is because of heavy fertilizer used. The problem is I only got permission to detect for 2 days. With above scenario in mind, I'm thinking of bringing along my friend ATX with standard coil but I doubting myself, does the ATX will be wasting the precious time because: 1. I know nothing about PI 2. I know nothing on how to operate the ATX, my friend will teach me the basic and i will try to learn as much as I could in 3 days on the beach.. lol 3. Do you think the ATX will possibly sniff out deeper target than Manticore, I will be using the ATX for sparse targets area/very low ferrous targets density only. Im planning to bring a PI machine because all the detectorist were using vlf and Im hoping the ATX will sniff out deeper target that out of vlf range Or i just better off using the Manticore alone. Thank you in advance
