Thanks for this video. Think I will give it a try on my XTP. I've had it for about 2 months. Found some coins, but think I could do better trying this.
I hope it does well for you, come back and let me know how you did. You can still hit trash with this but listen close to the tone and turn at least 90 degrees on the target. If it sounds trashy don’t bother digging. Good luck and thanks for watching!
I gave this a shot lastnight. I thought i found all of the coins in my yard since I haven't found any the last couple times out. I ended up finding a 1973 penny. I'm still happy with it. Going to give it a try on some other properties I'm going to be detecting. Was nice not having to dig all the other stuff. Thanks again.
@@darinblackburn6023 I’m glad it worked good for you. It will definitely keep you from digging a lot of stuff. It’s basically cherry picking for the coins. Remember too if you want to dig the zinc pennies drop that tone break a few segments. You could try 72. I’ll be posting a short hunt video soon using these settings.
Was going down my side drive tonight and found my oldest coin so far using these settings again. It was a 1913 wheat cent. Not pretty but still nice. Been down that drive atleast 100 times lol it picked it right out.
The numbers can vary a great deal depending on the size and orientation in the ground. It can be a wide range but the numbers are usually low in the same range as a lot of trash. It can range from less than 10 up into the 50s on the VDI. This video by Merrill from Metal Detecting NYC sums it up the best. You pretty much need to dig all of the low tones if you are looking for gold and jewelry. th-cam.com/video/SYBfkR87XfE/w-d-xo.htmlsi=0zagErXLHut2cApG
I like to be able to hear everything even if I’m not digging it. I can still get an idea of what else is in the ground and just how trashy or not trashy an area is. It’s just my personal preference. Some people would rather use notch/reject.
@@dcmdetects I hear you.. but here upstate NY , I have an old park that is littered so badly, youd throw your machines out in the trash if you didnt discriminate, its that bad
Good Info .. Happy Hunting . Peace

why bother with the tone break? why not just set your reject / accept to what you want or not want

@@USNVA-yn6cp Totally understand, sometimes it's better to notch depending on the situation.
I tried those settings today. Super easy to understand. I lit the two settings. I bumped it down to 50 on the decrimination. Thanks again.
