Default Gold finding

Hey Morgan and Gibon, just for the record, today after lunch, I talked to my friend at Mineoro and he told me of a guy who recovered lots of gold coins last week that he could detect with the FG80. They are expecting to see the pictures as this guy promised to send them.

In the first location, about 30 coins, in the second more than 40 and in the last location, 72 or 74, if I'm not mistaken. In all locations he picked the signals from a distance and when aproaching, the FG80 'acted crazy' similar to Morgan's case. He could not determine the center precisely. He also employed the new DCH85 to help center the coins. They were spreaded in a relatively big area in all three cases. No containers were found, meaning the coins were free in the soil and not inside anything.

So, as you see, this similar behavior had this explanation. This might or not be the case you both experience since I'm not there to watch. But this shows you some possibilities.
It's a good example that if the detector is beeping, there's a good reason for this.
I was told that Alonso could determine the size of a buried treasure in Paraguay, by reducing the gain knob of the FG90 almost to the minimum and when it started to beep, he marked the initial point. The detector kept beeping as he walked and when it quit beeping he marked the exit point. He kept taking measurements in the other side. He could determine the treasure area as 30 square feet.
Maybe you can use this same aproach.
Anyway, I always stated that the device is a tool and for being a tool the more proficient you get, the higher the chances of precise diagnostics in the field.
