So my neighbors have asked me to help them find a gold wedding band they lost a few years ago. I have never found a gold ring so I am looking to tap into the mega brain that is FMDF. I am using an Etrac
I hunted the flower beds and the yard today in TTF mode. My thought was I need to be digging it all except iron since gold rings tend to be a bit wonky number wise. Dug some pull tabs, bits of pipe, some foil and one copper penny today. I think it is working but just wanted to double check about hunting gold in TTF mode.
Issue #2 - After looking in all the beds they tell me that they think they lost it in the backyard while digging a "big hole". In the immediate area is an aluminum fence. I have the stock Etrac coil and a Sunray X-5 coil. I assume I should be able to get closer to the fence with the X-5 but I might sacrifice some depth. Any tips on hunting around metal fences are welcome!
