G2 with 5x10 DD coil. Finally, something that lives up to the hype. Dime Trifecta!

I spent yesterday going back to a place that has gotten the best of me in the past. My other detector, that I love, just does not do well in iron. This place is like an iron garden. I would get a constant null every time I would try to detect this certain area. This area is approx. 50ft x 15ft. of solid, disgusting iron. The EMI is also to much for most of my arsenal. I have hunted other parts of the property, and have been rewarded with Mercs., Barbers, ect. Due to it being 1 1/2 hours round trip away from my home, I haven't been to this place since I purchased a G2. This also was the first time I put on the new 5x10 DD. Within 30 seconds, I pulled out the Rosie above at a depth of 5". I was also able to run the machine at 95%! The EMI was non existent. I went off loud and clear, and was next to an old nail. This would be the case for most of the targets posted, they were all right next to iron. No coin was over 7" deep, but I would not have found them with any other machine, and I've tried 4 of the "Big Boys" on the market at this place. Thank you Teknetics for making a machine that live up to the hype.
 
Way to go! :thumbup:

Have you tried hunting that area using the 5 inch DD coil on the G2?
 
Thanks tabman. This was the first time I've taken the G2 there. I did not try the 5", but sure it would have performed well.
Thanks

I'm quite fond of my Gold Bug Pro with its 5 inch DD coil attached. It get's really good depth and it seems to ignore EMI. I just recently purchased the 5 x 10 DD coil, but I have not had a chance to use it yet. I'm glad to hear it worked so well for you in that trashy area. I didn't get the 5 x 10 coil for those really trashy areas, I got it because it will cover ground a lot faster than the 5 inch coil will, but it's still super sensitive to small gold jewelry. It beginning to look like the 5 x 10 coil is going to be in big demand.

You done real good Brian!----Now ain't that what I told ya about the G2? :thumbup:-----The 5" may have gotten even a little bit better target seperation (because of it size configuration) but that 5X10 is just a VERY good coil, plus it gets a tad bit more depth than the 5".-----G2 & new GB, best iron working babys in the business!! (IMHO)----------Del

Wait until you get one of these under that coil !!!! or one of those !!!! Great going !!!!
 
I think you will really like the 5x10 tabman.

Del, you were right, the G2 is the best in iron I have ever used.

Very nice Ken. That is one coin I have never found, but intend to.
 
NIce going Silverman great finds in heavy iron. I have places just like that and I just picked up a nice G2 last week and also got the 5X10 coil.
What are the dates on the silvers?
