deep coin spills

I can recall only one time when I found more than one coin in a deep hole with the Explorer, although I hear other people do from time to time. Finding several surface coins scattered in one drop is not unusual, so there must be plenty of deep coin spills out there. I guess that to me several deep coins must sound like deep iron, and since there is usually another piece of junk around to clutter the signal up that's enough for me to move one (usually I walk around a deep signal to determine whether the target is good and to pinpoint, and if the signal is spread out over a few sq feet I move on). The few times I have tried to dig these signals up have yielded nothing. Is there any easy way to determine if several coins are together and deep, other than "on the job" training? Thanks.
 
Ive got some deep multi coin holes, but without the X1 probe I might have missed some of them after opening up the hole.. if you dont have an X1 you might think if getting one

I was detecting an old park in Atlanta a few weeks ago and had a multi-coin find at about 5 inches. There were, get this, 14 clad pennies and one Kennedy Half in the same hole and the diameter of the hole I dug was only the size of my "Hole-Hog" (about 3"). The signal was clear and there was no doubt that it was a coin reading.
Most of the places I work are trash ladden and hard to work and learn with. But, keep at it because there is no better teaching ground if you have the patience and persistence. If you can learn to work these types of areas, you will be able to work anywhere. Hang with it, you will get it figured out.

These were all in one hole. They sounded yummy. <IMG SRC="/forums/images/biggrin.gif" BORDER=0 ALT=":D"> It is even green on the back of the half where the nickel was against it, unless I missed a penny, which I doubt. I dig multiple coins all the time. Today I dug a 09 wheat in the hole with a 5
 
After digging the hole and finding the coin, check the hole again with X1...You might be surprised. Also after retrieving a coin, try removing some additional dirt and then trying the X1 Probe again.. Hey you never know!! I know cause I have done it when I had the Sov and the XS Probe.
PS... I just got the X1 for the EXP in the mail! <IMG SRC="/forums/images/glasses.gif" BORDER=0 ALT=":geek:">
 
about multiple coin averaging, more than 1 nickel in the same hle up the readings.. 2 nickels read on the meter like a round tab, three get up in the square tab range.. thing is they sound different and hit better, any weird combo of close coins will give different results on the smart screen, depending how they are stacked
 
Thanks for the comments. I have an X-1, it looks like I need to try out more of the deep multiple coin signals and dig bigger holes!
