Deepest Coin With C$!

[RLOH]

I took my new, used Coinstrike to a park that has not produced any silver in over a year. I was hoping to dig some clad between rain showers. I dug a couple of pieces of lead that were 6 to 8 inches deep and they all had numbers in the low twenties. I went to an area of the park that I got some old coins last year and right off the bat I got a medium tone signal that had a number of 11 and when I checked from a 90 degree angle, I got a faint, but sharp high tone. When I pinpointed, it pinpointed at 40 which should be depth of about six inches. After removing a five inch deep plug, I found a 1950 nickle that was another inch down in the hole. I rescanned the hole and got a crisp, repeatable high tone. I dug down another two or three inches and saw a silver dime that was close to being straight up and down. Nothing great, but it was silver and it was deep. Close to nine inches and with a nickle right over it. That little dig was an impressive showing of what the Coinstrike is capable of doing. As Bill has said, the Coinstrike is a great detector that was a 1000 bucks a couple of years back and now they are all but giving them away. R.L.

I agree totally. As you can see I posted my 9 inch deep dime a few days back with the coinstrike. Awesome machine, even near, or sometimes covered by trash, it can see the good stuff! Great machine!

Coinstrike rocks!

darn right guys. i got a coinstrike a week ago and im already impressed with the machine so far. great depth and its ability to see through the trash with the right settings is awesome. when it finds a coin you know it right off because the vdi numbers stay close to the same and dont jump around much. a very underrated detector in my opinion. i have used an explorer2 for my main detector for some time but the coinstrike is giving it a run for the money. best value on the market for detectors hands down. and i didnt really find it hard to learn at all. a bit different than what im used to but nothing a little reading the manual and practice in the field wont cure. have a nice one and happy hunting all. have a safe fourth...

Took my C$ to a spot last week that I've found older coins at before with my F70. While I didn't find anything old this time, I did get a solid lock on a clad dime, and right next to the dime was a rusty bottle cap. I couldn't believe it. What I don't understand is if that bottle cap had been alone it most likely would've produced a high'ish coin tone, but when next to a good target the C$ seemed to ignore it and lock onto the good target. I really like how it hits hard on zinc pennies too so I can ignore them (although I could be ignoring Indian head pennies too I suppose).

I found out the hard way ( At least in my opinion ) that the most expensive doesn't always mean the best. I had an E-Trac and I couldn't stand it. I got a great deal on a like new Coin$trike , and even if it doesn't pan out for me I won't be out of alot of money. From what I've been hearing about it I don't think that I'll be dissapointed - especially for the price. CoinShooter-Craig
