I was detecting a yard today and was approached by a neighbor. He said he found a silver nickel in his yard awhile back and then dropped it in the grass. He showed me the spot where he dropped it. I started searching and got several good nickel hits. I dug one and it turned out to be foil. I dug another and the same thing. I continued to dig signals, but came up with nothing but foil. I am not sure if I should be looking for nickel signals or silver signals. I assume nickels, but then again silver normally rings out higher than nickels.
Could anyone tell me what a silver nickel would ring up as on the Ace250?
 

Anywhere from dime to quarter. Also you'll still need to get all the foil etc... out of the way or it will mask the silver signal whenever it is within eight inches of the nickle. :wink:
