This is too funny (video)

Like this happens ever time I go detecting.

That silver dollar looks staged to me. What do you folks think?

Absolutely! If it was me I'd be dancing and doing back flips!

hi,
this is Dan. someone that belongs to my pool lost a wedding band in the grass 3 years and when they found out i had a detector they were jumping all over me. the only problem is that the area that it was lost in is full of pennies and other crap. i was just wondering what i should discriminate to sort of narrow everything down a bit without eliminating the rings signal.
Thanks
Dan

Would help to know what kind of machine you are using.

Most gold rings read lower then coins on a VID type of a detector as far as I know. I have a gold ring that reads at the nickle range and another at the pull tab range on my 250. Just ignore all the hi readings and dig up the low readings.
Had you paid any attention to the video you would have known this Dan.

Since the ring will have the same conductive value as most of the junk you are doomed to dig the junk to locate the ring. If the 250 had an accept/reject feature on it things would be a little better.

First you need to find out what the ring was made of. yellow gold -white gold - platinum. Next discriminate out all coins except zinc pennies. That if it was yellow gold. If it was white gold or platinum discriminaqte everything but nickels and foil. Then it probably will be in the foil range. Then dig all targets. Good Luck
