Default I couldn't find the chain.....

but I am happy I found the cross! 5.5 grams, tests 14K. Had given up on two areas and decided to give one more search near a small reef. The cross came out as the first thing I found in that area. I was sure glad to see the glitter!

2 hours of searching. A silver toe ring and some change rounded out the hunt.

Default Couldn't Find the Gold Chain ...

Steve, Gold Chains are always very hard to find unless it is very large. The detector does not see the chain as a whole it only sees the individual links. Not sure why but I have experienced this many times. Put discrimination on zero or in all metal and dig all targets even scratchy or questionable ones. Hope this helps. Joe
