Found 9 clad dimes all about 3 " in depth. Found some dateless( Unable to read) Wheaties..all 8, and 9" in the ground.Totally covered with thick green hard substance. Might clean up, might not. Consistency meter did not reach top but only one off. Think it was due to Green crud.
4 quarters clad at 3",4" and one was 6" deep. Raised coil up about 4" and still read the last quarter easily.
Now for the good find.................1 lone Rosie Dime 1952.......Hit so hard, and so loud, read a constant 77, and pegged the consistency meter.
The Silver dime was 8" in the ground..Before digging I pinpointed it, re swept the coil, raised to 12 inches..Still read as a 74 target. and consistency meter still pegged to the top..Target loud and clear.....Now this little oddity..When shortened strokes dime read at 65, when shoulder, to shoulder swings, it read 77 solid. The audio was always louder, and better, than other coins except the 3, and 4" clad quarters..They did read loud and clear..
Used 11 Inch DD coil
DE mode, Sens at 70, all other settings factory preset..even the discrimination left it at 10
Not spectacular finds..right !... Well it was in a sense..I have hunted this little area for 20 years with every machine I have owned. First piece of Silver found in three years. First Wheat cents in about 5 years..The fast response of the F75 allowed me to hit these targets in between the different trash items. The Xterra 70 did let me hit a Silver necklace last year..But I was in all metal mode with Xterra 70. Found only new clad coins with the Xterra. I am going to try the 6" coil just for the experience of it Saturday morning.The F75 just keeps impressing me, more, and more.
