Question about the Ace 250

[HotTexas]

The Ace 250 has a Jewelry mode, what is the difference between it and the coin mode?

Also how well is it for salt water and wet sand?

Thanks

In Fl. it will only go 6" on a quarter and 4" on a cent in wet salt sand.
Coin mode has only the US. coins notched in. Jewelry mode only blocks out iron and excepts everything else.

How deep will it go in the beach dry sand?

Again Thank you!!!

In Fl. beach sand, 8" on a cent.

You will then answer your own question. As far as depth goes....it is relative to the soil the target is in. Moisture, mineralization, size of coil, size of target are just some of the factors which will influence the depth.

The discrimination changes and rejects less junk, as that is where a lot of gold rings fall.

9x12 coil: First three sections dis. notched out, sens. three/four shy of max.

I've dug Large cents between 3 and 9 inches deep with the above configuration.

Good luck!
