I dug this yesterday in a field with an old homesite, the structure itself being long gone. The other finds ranged from mid-1800s relics, to 1940s (and earlier) coins, to modern trash. This is a first for me, and it made my day to unearth such a cool piece of history.
The soil was extremely challenging, and I really struggled throughout the day with falsing on the Manticore. I ran in All-Terrain General, ground balanced often, toggled recovery between 4-6, sensitivity between 18-22 and stabilizer between 3-6. Nearly every swing had false signals, even when swinging very slow. The iron grunting was pretty much constant. I cleaned under the coil (M9) and made sure my coil wire was snugly wound — nothing loose flopping around. Nothing I tried seemed to help with the false signals. My guess is that it’s just very, very tough ground, but I certainly welcome any advice.
