Great hunt! You never know what the detector is hitting until you dig it up! I keep mine on all metal mode. I would rather dig up a bunch of trash, then miss getting that one good find.

Nice Day. I'm still learning my machine and dig must targets also. Kinda hurts when my machine says it's a pull tab and I dig a pull tab. Hehe I'm learning.
