Out Learning The Infinium some More Again Today :detecting:

Out getting used to the Garrett Infinium this afternoon. I would search an area with the Infinium, then go over the same area with the ACE 250 to see what I missed and to ID targets that were too deep to dig. A cold NW wind was keeping the temperature at around the -15C mark, so I only lasted about 2 1/2 hours.

Today I learned that the Infinium reads an older copper penny as a "low-high" signal and a newer zinc as a "high-low" signal. "Low high" signals also include silver chains, rings and coins. Our Canadian one and two dollar coins also read "low-high", a real bonus :thumbup:

Johno,
yeah I dicovered that a week or so back. I dug one of our old copper pre decimal pennies on the beach and it was giving me a low-high. It also low-highs on 1c and 2c copper coins. Our $1 and $2 coins alternate between low-high and high-low which is a little confusing ! Anyway I am enjoying the Infinium. Not too keen on digging coke cans at 2 feet or so !


Chris.
