Cherry picking with the Vision?

During the winter months all my detecting is focused on relics and coins around old lumber mill ghost towns and logging camps. During the summer months I do a little beach hunting and cherry picking silver in our older parks and lawns. My Whites 5900/6000 and XL Pro has done an excellent job as a cherry picker through the years for this type of hunting. With these detectors using the great analog meter to size deep targets and the ability to separate clad from silver with the meter scale I can limit my digging and just go after the older coins. Has anyone tested the Vision using the analyze feature to see how it responds/reads on silver versus clad coins at depth? I would think the clad would read more in the 7.5 kHz. range as opposed to the 2.5 kHz. silver range in cleaner areas but to what depths would it be accurate. Just pondering.

Think the 2.5 reads as high on the scale for clad Zinc penny may be a exception. I hunted a real trashy spot yesterday and the Vision did great. Could tell cans and Zinc lids from coins no problem.

I know it will show a copper cent at 76/78 and a zink cent at 58 in the coin program.
