VDI Chart, for G2

[Flintstone]

I have seen charts that show the % that gold falls in on detectors. Dose this chart stand true for the G2 ? I know most hit foil or nickle, like 79% or so, is this where it hits with the G2 ? Any help please, Thanks

My G2 hits nickles at 58 mostly, sometimes 59. Alot of my gold rings hit around 53 with some in the high 40's and some in the nickle range. If you want to find the gold you will have to dig just about all the hits. High school rings come in at mid to high 60's and low 70's. Machines can be different. HH

A setting of 48/49 On the G2 will knock out sports drink foil caps, a bunch of foil, small pieces of can slaw and still hit real tiny gold rings. Most of the gold rings that I find fall between 53 and 63. Nickels are 57/58 and modern coke lift taps are 59. I use a Gatorade sports drink foil cap as a marker on my Tesoro detectors

At 48, will you miss gold chains? I don't have a small one to test.

I found my answer in another thread in this forum. Summary: Looks like you might miss small gold chains at 20+ (especially 35+), depending on depth, coil size and ground mineralization (higher mineral, greater chance of a lower signal).
