Awakening The Silent Coins (Part 2)

[CyberSage]

Day 2 with the new Super 12 coil was to be for the purpose of comparing it against the stock coil. The idea was to find a good deep hit with the Super 12 then switch to the stock coil and compare. Along with this I would change up programs as well. The area I chose was under another tightly grouped bunch of Old Spruce trees. They stretched out for about 100 feet along side the pond in the park. This area is at the center of the oldest part of the park. I searched along the trees and the grass-line just at the edge of the boughs and under the trees themselves. I have probably walked and hunted this area 5 or 6 times in the last 8 months. I found a nice Wheat the first time I hunted this spot with the stock coil. So I started to swing at the first tree and within 5 minutes I had a solid VDI of 82. It pinpointed to 7 inches! Now this is where my plan fell apart. I did switch programs to one I use with the stock coil (DaveZ's) and still got a great reading of 82. So I am excited and dug without switching coils! I have no discipline. 6 inches down was another 1946 Silver Rosie, just like the one I had found the day before. With just an hour and a half to hunt I abandoned my comparison of coils and had the time of my life. All of the following coins were at 5 to 6 inches...



At this point I believe the Super 12 coil makes a huge difference in the sensitivity and depth of the DFX. Sure I could have just missed these coins the first 6 hunts but, in less than 3 hours over 2 days I have found 5 old keepers in a place that has been hunted to death. You tell me? I will at some point try to compare the 2 coils again. The weekend is approaching and the old park is a big place. I have a feeling that I am gonna be sore by the end of the weekend!
