Default Silver

I had the day off an my col is getting better so hit 2 old homes an foun a few new cents HMMM not much here so I went to a 1930s house, put the coil down and got a quarter. Had the disc on nail and foil and sens. all the way up and dug a lot of tabs and junk. Found some good stuff and then by the old flag stone walk got a solid hit for quarter, dug a plug and 5-6" down was a worn 1937 D quarter. Made my day! The prizm II CAN do it Found a lot more after that and had a great day.

Got a question..... There was a lot of chirping when I put it down to dig. Sens. too high? Also a real strong signal that would disappear when I dug the hole. Very confusing. I am learning which signal to ignore with low disc. It will take a while.

1c-22
5c- 1
10c - 4
25c- 5
toy cars - 4
marble - 1
1937D quarter

Congrats on the silver! If you set your machine down too close to where you were digging, your digging tool or pinpointer could make the machine chirp...I do this all the time!
