fredmason Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 I confess, I did it... Many years ago, down around Yuma, when I was green as new grass I would occasionally bury a penny or nickel for testing. I had no clue about high conductors or low conductors, or much of anything else... Usually I dug them up but not always. One time back around Yuma, I got a very nice signal and fairly deep. After some digging and some anticipation it would be gold...because it was deep. Out came a copper penny...then I realized that I had been there and done that... foolish me fred 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mn90403 Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 I was just in Gold Basin for a quick trip. Before I left I decided to hit a wash, a big wash and have a chance at getting a big nugget I've been told. So I get a bit of can slaw and soon I get a solid, booming hit not too far down the wash. There are no track or footprints and I'm down now about 6 inches and its all loose gravel. I get down to 8" and out comes the target. I get it in my scoop and its a coin. It has some tarnish on it ... old? Nah, it's a 2003 nickel. I've not found many coins with the 7000. It could be a good coin hunter.
