old park in western GTA - 8 coins (Nov23'24)

[metalman2024]

Nearly 4 hours later, 8 modern coin yield, (3x) Loonies 2013-2014-2019, (4x) quarters 2001-2009-2018 & one almost completely unreadable, (1x) penny 1988 maybe 1983 can't really tell.

Nic-A-Date may be able to reveal those obscured dates. To buy or not to buy?

You can see in the photos that a lot of trash (and worms which were cute) at up to 7 inch depth was found, got excited at first, major bummer when revealed! Below is a nice Loonie:

As for the detection sounds, not everything that rings is a coin! I am guessing that bottle caps and aluminum pull tabs are the fool's gold of coins!

Those evasive old coins!

metal detector coil too small for sure for more depth, maybe machine or maybe park is hunted out, let me know your thoughts, thanks metal-detecting community

$4.00 for a hunt is alright.
Keep at it, the old will come.
Law of averages. Dig enough holes it's bound to happen.

7" for a Loonie is a respectable depth.

Did it sound loud or just a faint signal?

Sometimes the speed of swing has a direct influence on the processor's abilities.
There's a saying
"Go low and slow"

Who knows if the park has been cleaned pre the coinage found.

$4 in 4 hours! No, the Loonies were, 1 of them on the surface and 2 were @ 3" deep. The 7" depth was an aluminum foil cap of sorts. It was loud! I had a feeling the park was "cleaned", I chose the park on watching 1920s footage on YouTube and went to the angle shown on the video, I tried to be smart and thought I must be on to something, I was outsmarted!

Very nice

the reach depth should be related to the coil diameter I believe - I am thinking the largest dimension of the coil is the maximum depth it can detect?
