Ace 250 coin mode

INCH

[attachment 177004 images.jpg]I want to ask about elimenating the nickle in coin mode. I am just a coin hunter , I am not looking for gold or platinum. What would I miss out on if I notched the nickle out, while in coin mode.? ''I know a nickle," but seriously, I run the sensitivity around 5 bars all the time, the few lots I hunt are sort of trashy and not. I did the air test with a new nickle and then notched it out and it worked. Thanks for any response...

Why would you not be interested in gold? I mean I can see not digging every signal in a trashy area(I don't, but I'll dig a few).....but still.....

You "may" miss-out on nickles, gold, foil, pulltabs, some nails, hardware, and lots of other "stuff", some good, some not so good.

If you wanna notch them out, notch 'em out. I generally end-up doing so if all I'm digging is trash.

Well smitty, your probly right , but I am so hard headed and I dont consider myself a cherry picker. I love coins .Still new at this, Still trying to figure out a little bit at a time
 
I see your point in taking out the nickle on coins for coins only......What has been working for me is hunting on jewlery mode......eleminating the first 2 or 3 bars.......You get hits on all your coins (except) the nickles, but you still get the gold ! This also eliminates most pull tabs....Its working well. Seriously try it at home in your bed room...its not to shabby of a hunting tech.

Thanks Andrew, Iwill try anything, especially in my bedroom LOL.. I dont dig many pull tabs in the coin mode. I Think my ace 250 is a coin magnet and a aluminum specialist, good targets and bad targets, I Its all a learning thing for me .
 
Yeah I hear ya on that.....Man, now I want to hunt in coin mode...lol. I really hate pull tabs....My back cant dig for two hours. I think today Im gonna experiment...
 
Looking at the last few posts,,,,Hmmm??:rolleyes:

The 6inchkid trying to get more coin and willing to experiment in the bedroom. :rofl:

(Just a little humor,not meant to offend you)

I hunt in a similar way ,after coins mainly. I notch out everything below nickle in custom mode. If you dont want to be bothered by nickles/pulltabs or gold then notch it(nickle) out. But digging just the solid nickle hits works well too.
Taking the nickles out would depend on how you feel at the time and how trashy the area is.
