Tarsacci Pulls Another Indian Out Of The Old Homstead


Recommended Posts

Got back to the old homestead i have been hunting, and by far the thing i find the most of is shot gun shells, in fact i found a cash of of them buried about 9" deep , I think a red squirrel buried them  must have been 15 of them , but today I went over the same spot the ORX went over and just kept finding targets, . I keep digging some nails, because i find so few good targets like silver coins i really do not know the difference from a nail false, and a silver coin so i have dug my share of rug pullers,  but the Indian did have a better sound and higher numbers 14-17 and i found it by rechecking a hole the ORX found one in  I am using 6.5 khz and 7 gain and 0 threshold and it will hit with a good signal in air a dime at 11 inches so its got some power . the Indian looks like someone went after it with a sharp punch of some kind, otherwise it was in extra fine condition

Nice IH! Looks like you're getting the same stuff I do. 🙂 Shotgun shells and lamp parts. Still worth posting an IHP.

Nice coin with odd marks. It makes you wonder why.

On the Tarsacci, I have found that the nail falses will break up/disappear as you rotate around the target in Disc. I have also found Disc 29/30 to be helpful in heavier nails. You can still tell the bigger Iron though to dig it if you want to get it out of the way.

DD coils typically will give different responses to objects like nails when they are flat and coil is swung in different directions. Monty's nail board test is a good example on that and how targets separate. Smaller dd coils do bit better than larger in those cases and concentrics do even better but unfortunately many manufacturers walked away from concentrics.
