First time out with the F-75-:usaa::fisher:

Went out with Tinfoil using his F-75 while he hunted with his SE. I have no earthly idea of how the F-75 was set up-just hunted, and it was 102 in the shade with humidity at 95%. Hit two bottle caps, but the numbers bounced, so no big deal. [The worry was Woody the Wino and his aluminum screw caps, because they read at Indian-head penny here.]
The area I took him has yielded halves galore, and near Jerry I got a half signal. I told him to i.d it, dig, and whatever, its his; out pops a 1917 Walker-he dug it so I said it yours.(We have a lot of Mardi Gras aluminum doubloons that read half also.) I had two mercury dimes from the 20s', plus we both had wheats and modern coins.
When he dropped me off he gave me the half back saying it was just worth silver {grade G-4+} and worth $5. I told him I'd bet a soft drink it would bring more. Then a funny thing happened when I got in the house and really looked at it-it was a 1917D OBVERSE, mintage of only 765,000. The Red Book says $22.00, and here it will bring it.
Get some new glasses Tinfoil, you owe me a Gatorade.
I had no problem with noise, or rusty iron and the pinpoint was dead center. It took Jerry 30 seconds to set it up. It has the fastest recovery I've seen except for a DFX, and you can spend a lot of time programming that detector.
All in all, I rate the F-75 5 stars {out of a max. of five}.

Next time, keep a BIG LOOP in the truck for the SE, just in case. We never know when that field will be open-we've dug seated and bust coins there. Its a place for both large and small loops because in some areas there is little fill dirt, but lots of trash and others-you need a G.I. shovel the stuff is so deep from fill. And I forgot to mention, but that GTi-2000 will knock out the screw caps because they image larger than a coin.
