My first gold and silver with G2

[sdesic]

Today I was testing my G2 on gravel - dry salt lake bed.
Snow has melted enough for me to detect for 2 hours.
Temp. is about 4 C

Disc 40 ... Sens 100 (with some EMI)
but I dug everything for test

My finds

Nickel is there only for size comparison.

I have noted few ID numbers

Thankyou for sharing. This Infos are very useful. What was the deepest object you found? What is the left object on pic 3?

 

[sdesic]

I think it was one of coins on about 23-25 cm, not very easy to measure in gravel.
Left object on picture no. 3 is silver ring, half of it. It is broken.

When I am out hunting I dig almost all solid signals above 44. I have done some testing and found gold 45-72. When I get in an area with too many pull tabs I usually stop digging 61-65 signals. These are almost always tabs. Almost all the gold I have found was 50-59. I dig everything that is in that range.

Thank you machineman fot that tip, I just started with this detector
I have been over this part of gravel 5 times with my whites 6000 di pro sl but there is still some more good stuff

I am going to dig all for 100 hrs and than try to dig only above ID 40...
problem is that my country has coins in iron range...
some coins when flat are in 50-70 range and in iron when laying on side
also few same coins (copper - iron sandwitch) are high when they are corroded by salt water
and third as they roll while digging them they change ID
