Hey all!! Found a nice '42 Merc today, nothing surprising in that...BUT, what is cool is that it was 14" down (Approximately). This is my deepest coin find in the 2 months I've been md'ing. Not bad depth for a 350...Nice LOUD hit too...I love finding treasure!!!

I have stated MANY times that the 14" is APPROXIMATE. Look it up if you don't know what it means. I used my Lesche blade as a measuring device. I have said MANY times IN THIS THREAD already that I could be off a bit, BUT I am POSITIVE it was foot down when I plucked it out. It was a little over 1 1/2 blade lengths.

Now for those of you that can't grasp the POSSIBILITY that I had a LUCKY hit, then that's on you. Stop trying to piss on a new guy's good luck...
Sorry I had to get mean. I'm tired of people that I don't even know insinuating that I'm lying about something as ****ing petty as coin depth.

I look at it this way, you did find a good coin , don't matter to me how deep the coin was, things happen when your detecting and maybe it did fall deeper, maybe it didn't don't know really don't care all i know you found a good coin, Congrats!!!
 

Thanks man...
 

I got a question for you eddie do you run your ace on high or do you back it off a notch?....i found my 9 inch dime with 2 bars off from the full mark i sometimes hunt 1 notch from full power but often the trash in the area gets too erratic so i back it down 2 notches in trashy places
 

I was at the factory setting for sensitivity...backed down two nothches. That DD coil has the ability to be quite powerful...

When certain factors like rain, soil conditions, etc..., are added to the mix it can really help that DD get a little deeper than usual.
 

Dude, stop trolling me. You're ****ing pathetic...trolling newbies, pffft. You didn't get a "thank you" because you flat out called me a LIAR. Go try a tear down someone else. Found a REAL nice 1825 Bust Dime today. Guess I didn't really find that, eh?

It's a shame this place censored me when I told you off. Went back to see what you had to say and all my replies were deleted. Go away loser...

Where did I say I doubted any of your actual finds? I have no reason to believe your finds aren't real. If you say they are, I have no argument about that. It's when people make claims about a machine that isn't within the realm of that machine's capabilities.
 

Just because you and a few other people may have DOUBTS, doesn't mean you have to call me a a LIAR. You're a loser and a VERY sad person. Stop trolling me...
 

I can't believe people find this is out of the realm of possibilities. People don't usually find coins that deep cause they are not that deep usually but I found a half Reale at 9 or 10 inches with a 5" coil so why not 14" with a bigger coil? The cost of the detector is not a factor as far as I am concerned. High end units discriminate and separate better they don"t have a monopoly on depth.
 

Let's see a video of that 350 air testing a dime at 14".

Since you have the deepest non-gold detector/PI on the market, you should show it off! :icon_thumleft:

Maybe this will help you maybe it wont maybe your just trolling.....but air testing only shows the potential of a machine not what depthes it can reach in the ground its a very flawed test but i assure you the air test can reach 9 inches on a dime with the 350 go to youtube and do some research....as for ground tests it can improve with the halo effect heres a link for the ignorant that dont want to or dont understand what the halo effect can do to a coin .... /flame on

Metal Detecting - The Halo Effect of Buried Coins
 

Take the total weight of a silver dollar and subtract 10% - then take that 10% of total weight in copper and turn it to dust. Then sprinkle it in the dirt and water it. Do you hear it with your detector? Nope - so not even a SILVER DOLLAR's worth of copper (or tin or nickel) could be heard. How would a dime's material be heard - or EVEN increase the detectability of a coin? It's a bad argrument for folks explaining a bogus depth claim or discrediting air testing (FOR DEPTH) in defense of the detector they chose. What could be cleaner than air when using electromagnetic fields?

Do this - take a dime and place a penny next to it. That's roughly 150% of added copper. Bury them side by side at 14"... did it help? Even better, smash the whole dollar above to dust, sprinkle it in the ground, water it, freeze it, thaw it, put a few earthworms through it, shake it up, etc. for 5 years, and see if you hear it....

Even though the "halo effect" of precious metals is way over stated and without any scientific basis WHENrelated to a VLF detector, I'll concede the argument and allow you to show us an air test of a quarter at 14".... Surely, you recognize that no amount of "halo-ing" could make a dime the size of a quarter, so that video would be nice to see as well.

Claims like the one in this thread are reckless and cause folks to make bad decisions when picking out a detector. It does the hobby an injustice, but so does the halo argument.....so....

When I was writing reviews for Bounty Hunter, some people used to say that BH machines couldn't find a cannonball in a bowl of oatmeal, but I pulled a horseshoe from red Ohio clay fifteen inches deep, an old shovel almost two feet deep, and old ammo a foot deep on more than one occasion. It all depends on the soil. Around here, moisture content can be an advantage. Oddly, the old Bandito used to go nuts in clay. The Garrett machines perform very well here.

Lighten up Francis. Mods. Can we get a dislike button installed?

Id like to see you post a video of your tests smashing coins into dust ect..... maybe you should stick with magic tricks .... Boom Baby s-AMERICAN-DIGGER-PROHIBITION-CASH-120411-large.jpg
 

You believe somehow that .25 grams of copper dust spread around in dirt, has a positive effect on VLF detectors and I'M talking voodoo?

All that guy had to do was post some periodic table symbols and you got all dumbfounded and excited.



Still waiting for the video of that 14" quarter.

Thats a good find.Usually when I get one that deep it's real unstable,but I gotta say 350's love silver.And I bet the loose soil helped too,Air testing has shown me that 14 inches is very possible but of course ground conditions have alot to do with things.Congrats and happy hunting,maybe next time it will be that gold coin. :occasion14:
