mn90403 Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 I was detecting a beach in Southern California with the 15" coil. Sensitivity was 22 and FE2 was 4 in Beach 1. I found a .925 EC opal/diamond ring and a token. Which target registered 23 on my Nox 800? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Seeker Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 The obvious answer is the ring but probably both gave you the same VDI. Conditions and nearby targets seem to fudge VDI numbers. Nice looking ring ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Slick Posted June 12, 2020 Share Posted June 12, 2020 I'll guess the token. I would think the ring would be a 27 or more. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dances With Doves Posted June 12, 2020 Share Posted June 12, 2020 Token. silver ring I found yesterday gave me a 28 and was about same size. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2Valen Posted June 12, 2020 Share Posted June 12, 2020 Depending on how the ring was setting in the ground it could come up as low as 20 to a high of 30. The token can also do the same thing. So I will take a guess and say the ring came in at a lower number than the token. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mn90403 Posted June 12, 2020 Author Share Posted June 12, 2020 I was hoping for more responses but I'll give the 'answer' now. The first answer was the 'best' answer. Both of the targets come in at 23! The challenge it turns out is writing the question without tipping off too much of the answer. I had to leave open the possibility that BOTH targets would give the same VID. There is a difference in sound when you interrogate them with swings. The real reason I placed the question at all is ring was just a solid 23. I can't remember silver coming in that way and I questioned it but it is .925 so I think it is shape over metal in this case. The token probably has a lot of copper but it is also the same diameter as the ring but it will sound more scratchy. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
