P.s.... go to the paint store and grab a half dozen or so wood paint stirrer sticks. Glue a different coin and/or metal to the end of each of them - even trash. Order/buy a few different colors of those cheap 12 - 15 inch flags that are used to locate utility lines. First, air test your paint sticks by waiving them like he does here - swinging the end of the stick with the coin in front of the coil. Then bury them, stick on of the flags in the ground, and write what you've buried on the flags, and how deep you buried them. When I go on a hunt, I'll walk fifty yards, sticking flags at every target, different colors for different hits. That way if batteries die or sunlight disappears, I can pack up the detector, pull out my pinpointer, and prioritize which targets to recover first. Next day, if I was able or safe or permitted to leave flags in the ground I can dig them the next day. Unless you live in Alaska and there's no sun - then you're f*cked. Anyway - just sharing ideas and strategies!

hello. got the same problem with gold: tone somewhere around 8 or even lower ! The mode does not really matter, it is a dark, weak tone... so this is normal for the vanquish? I thought the better the metal the higher the number... seems not to be like that then... we used to ignore these low tones, maybe we should start diging when a low one comes up? Confusing machine... especially when the dollar symbol is over the 40 identification number and the gold is somewhere between the earrings and the foil in reality? Gosh :(
