How did you design your "test bed"

[go-rebels]

As a coin shooterI'm going to dig a test bed to help learn the output of my F75and I'd like to know what people have already designed. I'm not planning to dig dozens of holes for every possiblity but maybe something around a 10-15 would seem to be fine.

- Copper Penny @ 4"
- Zinc Penny @ 4"
- Nickel @ 4"
- Silver Dime @ 4"
- Clad Dime @ 4"
- Steel pop top @ 4"
- Old style aluminum can pull top @ 4"
- New style aluminum can pop top @ 4"
- Large nail @ 4"
- Small nail next to copper penny @ 4"
- Small nail next to nickel @ 4"
- Small nail next to dime @ 4"
- Aluminum pull top next to copper penny @ 4"
- Copper Penny @ 8"

Of course I'll need to clean the site before I start digging.

Opinion?

Might want to think about planting a dime starting at 4" up to 10" or more at 1 inch increments. It will be a long time before the deeper coins can be detected, if at all, but one of these days when someone says his detector goes deeper than yours, put it to the test.
