Tesoro Cortes Goes Deep For Small Silver :tesoro::usaflag:

[tabman]

Nothing really amazing about these two silver rings, except for the fact that the Cortes nailed them both easily at around 7 inches deep using the 8 inch doughnut coil. They both rang up as zinc pennies. They didn't have enough size to them to get into the dime range. Still, silver is silver. I had the discrimination set at 'iron', the sensitivity set at '10' and no notch. I can't wait to tryout my new 10 x 12 inch DD coil. It should be here in a few days. Just about everything that I dug today was over 5 inches deep. I'm wore out from digging. The deepest was a 8 inch deep quarter and the Cortes correctly identified it. I could find a lot more silver rings and coins if I could break my habit of wanting dig most every target that beeps looking for gold jewelry. I'm hooked on gold.

Just for the heck of it, I'm going to use the notch feature on the Cortes when I get my 10 x 12 inch DD coil and go cruising for silver rings and coins.

Nice work there Tab. especially those rings being that deep and in the zinc signal...I don't know about YOU being able to disc out everything except silver and try to hunt...I've thought about it a time or two myself, but just cant bring myself to do it! I seriously doubt you, being a gold hog and all, could even attempt it in a limited fashion, even as a test. Well, let us know if you are able to accomplish this, and if you went back over the same ground looking for gold!
I think you got a winning system now, it would be a dang shame for you to miss a gold coin when your coil goes over the top of it, which may happen once in your lifetime. Oh the horror of this obsession!
