    Nice find,  Tarsacci is great on thin silver coins or worn out buttons. 
     

    I use 18k mode when relic hunting, tends to enhance signal on worn thin silver coins, 1/2 dimes and worn silver reales. Conductively is lower on older small silver coins or brass buttons, Especially the tiny ones.  18k will enhance these signals, give it a try.
     

    Congratulations!
    Paul

    Agreed Paul. Those tiny silver hammered coins are definitely low conductors and generally ring up in the smaller gold area around 4. They are literally paper thin. Here’s a video I did last summer using one of the smallest and thinnest coins ever, a hammered English farthing.

  2. The videos I’ve usually done are usually geared towards instructional, how to operate the TARSACCI, not “look what I’m finding”.
    Agreed on the audio language Paul, that’s the toughest part of the TARSACCI. I’ve got a new audio system worked out that should further help and speed up the learning process enabling the viewer hear what I’m hearing.....BETTER, and even in the lake!

    Thanks!

  3. Thank you. The good stuff is very rare in my old hunting spots. I know it’s there, however wether I’m hunting in the lake or in the dirt you’ll generally find me amongst the iron and trash, areas most hunters avoid, that’s were the last of the good stuff is. By hunting in trash you’ll also learn a lot more about your machine (any machine) as you’ll be digging A LOT more targets, co-located w iron and aluminum. In my videos I’m emphasizing a more educational approach, how to use the TARSACCI, not so much,,,” look what I found” type of video. Making videos is not fun, especially when your trying to do them right. Editing is even harder especially when you have 2hours of video that needs to be condensed down to 15min, very time consuming.......🥴

  4. Relic hunting in my old 1850’s military site, not much found, lots of modern trash and clad. I did manage to dig a big piece of iron just to get it out of the way and glad I did. Happened to be this old straight edge shaving razor from the mid to later 1800’s. Look close and you can see the brass hinge for the long gone wood guard. Checkout the link for more pics....

  5. I made it out in the lake for the first time yesterday this year. Also fist lake hunt w the BEAST coil. I had it on video but unfortunately lost it in the attempt to free up space in my CRAPPY iPhone!

    This lake is often POUNDED by the locals and finding anything in the off season is DIFFICULT. However I managed to find a BEAUTIFUL 1936 BUFFALO! I’ve found  Buffalo’s here before but not in this great of shape, as it was probably lost not long after it was minted. It was down around 10”, and mixed w iron. Lots of iron in this old lake.

    UPDATE.... thanks to my daughter, LOL I have recovered the video to this hunt and will edit it back together.....soon.

  6. Great finds and congrats!👍
    I like your settings, looks like your working in hot ground by your GB.  If you’ve gone over the site in 18khz, try 6.4 next. If you encounter EMI w the lower kHz try this: After you reground balance, add 20 points to the GB, and activating BLACK SAND and -1 Threshold. If your in heavy iron dont be afraid use lower or low gain, you’ll be at surprised the performance.

    About ready to wind it up for the day.   Just to the right of a exit gate, thought I heard "Don't leave me ! Please don't leave me!"      Well had to go over and see what's up.    Up popped a year 2000 Sacagawea Dollar coin.    Not many of these around.     Anyway a nice ending for the day.

    NICE! I found one in the water years ago, and it happened to be a double-strike! however it’s still only worth a $1🥴
    Something tells me it will be making a appearance in the US Coin videos I’m doing...

  8. Chuck, 

    As with any machine and it’s stock coil (with which it is calibrated too), those pinpoint/depth numbers are going to change with a a lot bigger coil, as is the case with the with the new BEAST coil. I only just did my first dig yesterday, soooo....give me awhile, I’ll figure the  BEAST coils pinpoint/depth numbers and post those too....😉

    THX

    Testing the Tarsacci in the red dirt of VA.  I followed a GPX and I thought the Tarsacci did well!! It heard the targets and ran well in that soil!  I found 3 bullets and some brass.  Next week will be testing it again, this time a 3 day hunt in the red dirt!  Thanks to all that helped me! 🙂

    SUH-WEEEET👍

  10. I had explained the TARSACCI target depth in relation to the VDI numbers when doing my field test videos with the BEAST coil. However, because of the considerable depth gained with the BEAST coil, these VDI numbers are not the same with the stock 11x9” coil. I’ve posted the stock coil figures on TARSACCI Forums somewhere. 
    I suggest my first BEAST coil video, and especially the head to head videos with the stock coil.....
