Wow... I cannot tell you how impressed I am with my v3i!!! To be able to look at your target in so many different ways before you even dig it up has helped me immensly by keeping my trash digs at a minimum. I just got my v3i and I decided to learn the detector I would play around with it in my backyard which borders an old field. The town I live in was established in 1864, so I always knew there was potential for silver to be lurking in my yard. I have previously swept my yard with a Garrett GTP 1350, and an MXT Pro. Today I swept it with my new V3i and let me just say that the other two detectors did not compare. I had been sweeping for about an hour and had dug 4 clad dimes oldest being an 86, 3 lincoln memorials oldest being a 62, and two parts to old toy cars. Then I got a signal in the high 90's that was crystal clear and repeatable... I was thinking to myself "Right, a dollar," as is what showed up as the likely target and it read 7 and 1/2 inches deep. So ai start digging and I blow right through 8 inches and still keep digging and at 11" down I see the ribbed edge of a LARGE SILVER COIN!!! My heart stopped dead in its tracks as I reached down and pulled out a 1922 peace dollar. You should have seen the look on my wifes face as I was jumping around the yard in disbelief. So I go inside, clean it up and calm down " a little " and head back out to hnt that area again. After about 30 minutes I get another diggable clear tone in the mid 80's at 6" down so I start cutting a plug and flip it and stare,at a smaller silver coin in the bottom of the hole... I carefully flaked off a chunk of dirt and smiled at a 1923 S merc. I hope my story gets you excited because I am stoked to get back out there and swing my v3i good luck hunting.
