Got out for an hour and a half this evening. Nothing terrific. Great weather though! 61 and no rain. We've been getting Cal's weather, and they have been getting ours. I thought the ring was gonna be good...but alas, nothing special. It had a gold tone, and it was dark when I dug it, but got it home to find it was a peeling silver ring.

Those dimes seem to be coming in pretty good for you. What are you using?
 
but I always seem to find a lot more dimes, no matter what I use. In fact, the dimes ring out a lot better than quarters do!?!

its two toned, but it could be considered four toned. I say that because it has a high tone, a high tone that has low tones mixed in, a low tone with high mixed in, and a low tone. Within those tones, you can tell the difference between a quarter and a dime, a zinc penny, and a copper penny. Quarters typically are the quietest of the four, with copper being the loudest.

You got a fine machine there. I never paid attention to the mixed High/Low versus mixed Low/High your talking about. I remember an actual three tones though. You had the high tone, the low tone and that crazy...Baaaa-Leeep third tone. The best part is that you can set the point where you want the low and the high tones to be. It's that middle area that carries the dual third tone. I used to set the 'tone break' (notch) where a particular target I was looking for would fall. When I heard that Baaaleep tone, I knew I was over a target with a similar conductivity of what I was looking for. The Pantera is a great machine.
 
The coins that I notice the High with low mixed in are the zinc coins. The low with the high mixed in are the newer nickels. Some tabs also fall into that range, but they have a little break to the sound, and almost always have a all low tone as you pass the edge of the coin over them. You're right that it really is only three tones, but I just differeniated between high/low and low/high.
