Popular Post JCR Posted January 28, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted January 28, 2023 I wanted to hunt a bit before the rain sets in for the next few days. I decided to go to a fairly recent permission that is an early 1900's Farmstead with the house still standing vacant. I have been there twice, once with each of my daughters. The whole yard all around the house is trashed from renters living there. I know there has to be some Old there so I set the Legend up in Pitch with the Tone Break set to 40 and started wading through toward the well house. The first target I dug is pictured. Not all that quiet of a signal (only 4" down) but it was tight and I wanted to see what a 58 was. 1 Troy ounce .999 Silver. You just never know what you might find anywhere. I bet some kid got a good whoopin for losing it. 20 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JCR Posted January 28, 2023 Author Share Posted January 28, 2023 No, the signal was tight on audio & a solid 58 all around. It faded if the coil was lifted more than 6 inches. Can slaw even if big, or a crushed Al can is ragged & doesn't hit that high and will still give a fairly strong signal with the coil 8-10+ inches above. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Past Member Posted January 28, 2023 Share Posted January 28, 2023 I wasn't being literal JCR ? I was thinking more like swinging the coil while humming the tune to Sesame Street. Then a 58 comes along. Oscar came out and said, "It's probably not a large silver coin, but rather... 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
