I'm going to try an experiment...

Relic and Gold both use pitch mode*, not full tones, and that can't be changed. And they run in "full metal" mode. Because of that, I find them difficult to use without the extreme notching. But by notching up to around 85 or so, all I'm getting signals on is copper or silver (which, of course, does include clad coins).
----
* Pitch mode does not take into account the target’s conductivity: The strength of
the signal generates an audio sound that varies both in volume and height (audio
frequency)
Thanks for the correction. I actually meant Pitch but my brain sometimes substitutes the wrong details.
 

OK, I'm back, and declaring this a qualified success! I only had time to try notching everything below 90, but got some interesting results.

In 2 hours, I dug 8 holes; 6 paid off; 2 (first & last) were spills.
First Row:
1970 P Roosevelt dime
1974 P Lincoln cent
2007 Montana state quota
1981 P Lincoln cent

Second Row:
1970 D Roosevelt dime
1974 P Lincoln cent
1977 P Roosevelt dime
1979 P Lincoln cent

Notes:
No silver
No zinc cents
No nickels
Nothing before 1970

I thought I would have found at least ONE silver above 90. Notching lower (80, 70, etc.) may find those nickels, and there've gotta be some IHPs down there, as well as more silver; I've just got to figure out how to find them.

Judging from the depths I found these today, the older stuff may be DEEP.TRY
