Well I went to a place that I have hunted a lot this year that has given up some nice things but it is full of trash and I have dug most of the shallow targets so I put on the 4x6 eclipse coil and ran in mixed mode and it turned out to be a great day first target was a 41 mercury dime.
I also got a 1952 rosie, 1944 wheat, a painted silver charm thats broke, 2 antique car coins from sunoco and .67 cents in clad.
For use that don't know what (Mixed Mode) is you can gain extra depth by monitoring the all-metal and discriminate channels simultaneously, checking depth and digging targets too deep for the discriminate channel alone.
