I had a covnersation with a member on another forum thought I would post here . For an old park of any kind that’s pretty mind blowing. One thing I’ve found to be true…when silver coins develop that “blue” look to them they are harder to find, it must be that the tarnishing somehow affects the eddy currents or some sh*t, who knows. The pinpointer doesn’t even seem to like them, so I can see why these were still hidden in there. I have not tested different frequencies in air to see if one works better than another, so you might want to experiment to give yourself the best chance of finding others.
Interesting you brought this comment up . The blue look can also be the concrete look what are silver coins made of 90 percent silver and 10 percent copper .
Silver coins in the ground a 100 plus years get that concrete type coating on them where they were blue and as time goes on they go to the grey concrete look . Then again some coins will blue or turn grey faster depending on the soil and some hardy change.
This happens because of that 10 percent copper that's in the coin now if they were 100 percent silver they would not blue or grey as fast but would turn black .
As you know the metal detector is looking at the eddy current that is the surface of the coin EMF if we leach out the copper on the surface of the coin we basically have a pure skin of silver with no copper changing the EMF .
Just as a electric wire the current travels on the outside of the wire not the center.
So if freqs were a determining factor we would need to run even lower freqs to get the best signal .
All this aside x=2/3-4+2^=shhit the reality is there are no more high tones were most people hunt (but still silver there ) So why would a person be using a low freq thinking he will find high conductors .
What a person is looking for is a coin with co-located iron pull-tab foil and who knows what mixed with it all this bring that high tone to a mid tone or worst case a low tone .
Just as the CTX was weak on deep nickels the deeper they were the more ID went up till it just ID as iron .Why CTX etrac and so on were good with high conductors the freqs were set lower .Same can be said of dime if you ran higher and higher freqs you would get that dime shallower and shallower another words the deeper the dime the more likely it would call it iron .
Now getting to the deus deep HC I think runs at 4 to 14 khz this is great if your finding high conductors or able to separate a target from a co-located iron nail and what not .
This is not the best freqs to run when we have blended targets ones we can not separate or find alone maybe set the deus up with a higher offset like 24khz . As I said most targets left will be blended and have lower ID (a mid tone or low tone ) .
I am going to concentrate on the deep mid-tone and use a freq that's best for them not to high and not to low both of these will give less depth on the mid-tone . Running higher freqs I don't think I will miss that white whale all by itself (silver coin). Deus 1.10 has the ability to set the offset on the machine .sube
