Canadian coin orogram

How about a silver coin, a dime preferably, it should ring in loud and clear at 8" easily, if not you will probably need to reload 4.0, this happened to a friend of mine

Full Tones with zero discrimination and zero notch should get them.
 

I find a lot of Canadian coins never noticed a difference.Have you tried a Canadian and a US on the same program?
 

US coins ring in, Canadian clad coin not so well. Older Canadian silver coins are not an issue, it's the modern ones
 

Are they made from metal?

The newer Canadian coins are made out of junk metal that we usually like to discriminate out.

Canadian coin composition

What are Canadian coins made of? | Canadian coin collecting

[FONT=&quot]Canadian coins less than a loonie (Canadian $1) have steel cores. In the history of Canadian coins, the dimes minted between the year 1968 and 1999 were made of nickel. In year 2000, all Canadian coins have 90-95% steel as an intrinsic (base) metal and plated with nickel, zinc or copper to add color. [/FONT]

Looks like my "Canadian coin program" is the ticket. No wonder I find them without issue.

Full tones, zero discrimination, zero notch.

Good hunting.
 

Yep, if you want to hear those steel coins, need to set Disc to around 0 or less.
 

Do the new canadian coins produce any sort of high tone? I ask because even a round steel washer sounds kinda good on the Deus.

They say they are steel core, just not sure what their idea of steel is. The newer coins give a scratchy erratic signal. Some one the older clad with give a decent signal

Deus loves round things. If you're finding zinc washers, rusty electrical box knock-outs, and of course iron rings...yeah, the newer Canadian coins sound good just like those things sound good at times too. So, they give a "round sound" that's scratchy or not clean sounding. Tones for them can be anywhere on the Deus, but usually I dig them about lower mid-tone.
 

Some of the new Swedish coins has a similar problem. Iron core with copper mantle.
Zero disc is the key!
