I had a few minutes this afternoon and hadn't had the detector on much the past two days so I headed out to the side of my house with the T2 to grab at least one coin. I have really made a mess out of this yard since I moved here in 91. I do remodel work so I have several burn piles on the place where I've burned hundreds of loads of wood with nails that have been scattered some, not to mention the cans I've shredded along the way with the rider. I had no idea I'd start detecting in 08 or I would have been a little more careful through the years. My solution this summer has been to scalp the areas with trash grass, let it all die then surface hunt all the surface can slaw to clear the way some for the detector. This is the first pass I'd made down this reasonably clean side of the yard. On the way down I was running it just below nickle with the sensitivity around 60. It was more trashy than I'd thought so on the way back up I cranked up the disc to 80 and the sensitivity to 80 and walked back. The first hole I dug out popped my first silver Roosevelt dime a 48, then a domed 54 wheat. I was happy. This T2 can sure find the coins at those settings if the depth is not too great.
