Any ideas?

Although I will never complain about digging Civil War bullets. Bullets and a Surprise

Thank you very much.

Yes, but it’s a learning process. Its language is so nuanced, which I enjoy. But, even now, I reach for it over all my other detectors.

And dug some relics. Digging Civil War Relics

Found CW relic hunting today. Anybody know what it is?

Wow! Great cannon ball find. THAT’S a relic.

I understand everything you say. I’ve owned and used them all including the Manticore and D2. My contention is that, in real world hunting, 32 years of technology has produced few additional finds. In fact in uncontaminated ground, I know that old Silver Eagle will find deeper targets than the D2, Legend, or Manticore. I know because I’ve hunted extensively with all 3 in uncontaminated ground. Also, I didn’t tweak the settings on either machine. I know both can be improved with tweaks. Next, if you didn’t hear the minie ball sound off at 13 1/2, turn up your volume. I don’t stretch. Please understand, if the Legend didn’t have advantages over the other two, I wouldn’t own it. I especially like that it’s waterproof. My main point is that, when it comes to actual targets recovered, the technological advancement in metal detectors is unimpressive. I’m not telling anybody what to use. That’s an issue of personal preference. I’ve chased the technology for over three decades only to discover that I’ve spent tens of thousands of dollars for little actual performance advancement. Use the machine you prefer. That’s what makes it fun.

It’s definitely a learning process with this coil. It’s unlike any others I’ve swung, and I’ve swung satellite dish sized ones with the GPX.

Hope to dig targets with it Monday. Double 16 Coil

Would love to join you for some hunting in your beautiful part of the country. Maybe one day.

Yep. 1” last night. First in 42 days. Wednesday, I’ll go see if it made a difference.
