well the ups guy didnt show up on friday like i had hoped he would so it was a LONG weekend! but he showed up today. I unpacked eberything and watched the video and hit the yard. It was VERY VERY different than my Jim dandy junk bounty hunter to say the least. but i did find a 1982 penny LOL. Then i packed up the detector and headed over to my girlfriends house,she lives in a older mining location and most of the houses there are older than mine,anyway i started off and in five minets had a nine plus "B" reading at four inches so i dug her up! Yeeehaw, a standing liberty quarter! I have no idea what date it is as it is very woren but she sure id purty. i continued down along the east side of her house and at six inches found a 1936 lincoln penny then turned around and headed back south in another sweep and ended up with a 1948 lincoln penny!!!! Damn this is great fun! And i dont even have the hang of it yet. While i'm here i have a question. Do you folks with the 2500's get lots and lots of signals while sweeping? I was using the 9.5 coil and all i could here was six,eight,eight plus,nine plus,four,six plus twelve etc. etc. This afternoon i just dug the ones that were a eight plus and up. Since its my first day and all LOL i was a little confused with all of the signals,what causes this? was i going to fast,to slow? Was this just what they call a trashy area? should i of been using a smaller coil? Just thought i'd ask.
