Dcraun Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 Took the D2 out to a small Confederate camp using the general program because the ground is saturated. Three tone, notch 07-40, tone break at 68. I had dug several bullets all ringing up as 82 when I got a solid 84. Out came this cut 1730's Spanish silver. you can see the beginning of a 3 for the third digit in the date Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F350Platinum Posted March 1 Share Posted March 1 Nice one! Looks like it was also shaved a bit, they did that to make counterfeits or use the silver for other purposes. The notches are a giveaway, this was why later silvers were reeded. I have yet to find a whole Reale, either 1, 2, 4, or the much coveted 8. Are you on V2 now?

Dcraun Posted March 1 Author Share Posted March 1 Yes I'm very happy with V2. 90% of the time if conditions allow I run sensitive full tones, high square, offset 10, notch 07-40 , discrimination 6.8, reactivity 1.5 or 2. Those are my go to relic settings I have found these settings make it very easy to identify aluminum. A VDI of 74 that is aluminum has a hollow wind chime type of sound where as a brass button with a VDI of 74 has a solid bell sound. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
