I had a list of numbers here on file somewhere but now can't find them. I have since learned that they can vary between detectors of the same model. Suggest you start waving various targets over the coil in the air to get a feel for where they turn up. I wouldn't worry to much about the numbers as long as it is above Iron a might you should scoop it as White gold can read in the foil range. Since the digging is easy on the beaches, just go for it and smile.

Good Luck,

Sandman

Silver quarter 38

My take with a safari with 8 inch minelab thinline coil, conductivity mode, high trash density setting:

Large Cent ..............................38
Flying Eagle Cent........................21
Indian Head Cent........................33
Steel Cent................................10
Lincoln copper...........................36-37
Zinc cent.................................33-34
nickel.....................................14-15
war nickel................................15-16
bust dime.................................37
merc.......................................38
clad dime.................................37
quarter, silver or clad...................38
barber, kennedy 40% or clad half......38
morgan dollar............................35
gold 5$....................................30

10k wedding band man's...............27-28
10k wedding band woman's............19
fine 10k ring.............................6-9
fine and medium 14k ring..............9
stout 18k ring.............................32

I find a shift up in quarters and silver dimes with the SEF coil. Sometimes pennies ring up as 38s.

=========
-7 to -10: nails and small iron
-7 Metorite
-7 Small Gold Nugget
-1 to -6: larger iron, worth digging if you want frags and gun tools etc. (especially -1 to -3)

15 14K gold Ring
16 Silver Nickel
18 to 20: coat and overcoat buttons

The way I set it up is ,and you will increase your finds by setting 4 customs,
(Use Cross over)
Use High T/D
All metal ferrous
All metal conductive,
-10,-9 ferrous.
-10, -9 conductive.
and just switch from one to the other to sort items, the sounds will tell you what it is, where it is and what its next to.
Also manual sens. set to the ground your working.
If your running a program (I don't think you should...To Much disc. ) and want to get around the nulling . swing Left too right , then right too left before you step froward. This way if iron is next to a target you will pick it up with a one way swing.

That's why i have been useing the Sovereign all these years i don' have to worry about all those numbers. Like Sandman said if you are working the beach just dig don't look at those numbers... just scoop ..
