Fisher cz5 and gold?

Also once you get down about a foot or so, your detector seems worthless for pinpointing or anything. Seems like once you disturb the soil everything changes.
Just frustrated OK. If your pretty sure a hoard will give a high tone, then that would help a lot, thanks again

I am by no means an expert and have never found a gold cache before.I just go by what works for me.Put a good 100 hours into that CZ or any detector for that matter and you will be come one with it.I just dug out a 46 rosie out of my back yard today surrounded by nails with my CZ6a.It was bouncing all over the place with all the nails around it,yet it gave just enough repeatable high tone to dig it.That is my 28th silver out of my yard over the course of 2 summers.I have literally pounded my yard with almost every detector you can think of and they all found coins.I feel 2 big parts of this hobby is patience and persistence.More than 200 coins have come out my yard so far including 1 standing liberty quarter,3 washington,1 seated dime 3 barber dimes 11 mercs,6 rosies (including the 46 today) 3 silver war nickels,13 indians more than 35 wheaties,2 rings and a beer cup full of clad.The more time you can put into one site the more will come out of the ground.Its amazing what you can and will find when you slow down and take your time.I know their is still more to be found in my yard.I think the remaining coins and such are heavily masked by iron and the like.Dont be so quick in just having the mind set to finding a hoard of gold coins,we all want that.It could lead you to losing interest in the hobby.The good finds will come thats for sure.Just go out and enjoy the hobby for what it is and have fun.Thats what its all about,at least for me anyway.
 
Big misconception is the cz's aren't as good in iron trash,I say none equal a good cz.
I'm not talking about a nbpt with nails and coins on the same plane. I'm talking real world scenario where coins and rusty iron are at different depths,cz win.
Compadre does great on a nail board but fails 100% of the time with my foam block with rusty nails above and to the side of the con,cz passes with ease.
On and my cz's false to iron no more than or even as much as my other machines.

Con=Coin,never noticed there's no edit on here.
 
Anyone ever think of what it is buried in and how that would change the signal....As far as gold rings foil is the hot spot but could land anywhere from iron to coins all depending on size kt. and what metal is mixed with it....

JJames 1610 plant a coin - jewelery & trash graden and practice. Old finger rings - ear rings - different coins - pull tabs - square tabs - aluminum can slaw I have found I made a garden in my back yard & front yard just for practicing on my different machines. No matter what you read and experience form other sources will not always match up with your soil & weather conditions in your area. To know how your machine will react and the sounds that it puts come from first had experence. Wish you great success dirt fishing with your machine.

I just read Tom's article on the cz's....On all but the Cz3d 5.00 gold coin registers as a square tab. The 10 and 20 dollar gold cons will give a high tone...They will all give high tone with the cz3d...Hopefully this will help
 
I had been using Fisher F75 Ltd2, F70, Whites MX5... even CZ21 with no luck on gold.
Then picked up CZ6a... very similar to CZ5, and hit 2 gold rings in 2 hunts. One mens
honker 14k and one thinner band 10k, both came up strong at old style pull tab. The rings
signal is rounder.... not sharp and harsh like tabs. Of course you dig a lot of garbage to
get gold.... but if you are in a good area, you will find it.
 
Tough to tell gold versus trash but the hit is sharper in my opinion...Got my best gold ring with 16 diamonds with a CZ5...remember foil to foil to nickle jump is the hot spot..
 
I guess the key may be to test a few gold rings buried to find the sweet spot in the symbols.
I really find that once I found it, it's just a matter of time till there is gold in the hole.
