maybe or maybe not,,,,,there are a lot of variables to consider,,,,one, targets collate at different depths,,,,and sometimes, there is pennies and pull tabs and heavy coins and rings are deeper,,,,not to say lighter rings don't come in to the mix,,,,,second, yes, there are guys that "no it all",,,and pass the penny targets,,,,I love to go behind those guys, every gold ring over 10 grams I have dug sounds similar to a penny,,,,,,now, if you were hunting say, CWB or Siesta and there were 5 hunters swinging, you may want to pick and choose,,,,,,GL HH
