Went tot lot hunting for gold (since I don't have gold nuggets in my area), but this time only silver spacers. This bug is very hot on small metal. These spacers were about 3 feet apart and gave a very soft audio that stopped me in my tracks. The bug found them but it took me a while to locate them among the chips. I was running gain at 100% with tone brake of 50 so everything above 50 would give a high tone. Eventhough this machine was designed for nugget and relic hunting it does very good on gold jewelry. And since gold is over $1691 per ounce a few small pieces of jewelry would pay for this machine very quickly. Then it's all profit.

Sterling spacers

Man those are TINY! 
I agree with finding things that small in the wood chips or gravel...really tough, sometimes even the pennys are hard to see, a fellow just keeps kicking the chips until the target gets isolated a little...Those totlots give up gold eventually..looks like gold will break 1700.00 today...I gotta get out! Nice work there, Mark

This machine amazed me at detecting these spacers. I knew it was something small when I had such a difficult time locating them.
Looking back I think these were the smallest targets I've ever recovered that gave a good audio and the ID numbers didn't bounce a great deal.
Now for the gold.............

Thee machine will find small..NO DOUBT about it. I often recover single loops . That would hold the end of a chain. Maybe like a piece of bare wire that makes a circle less than 3/16".`
