      I have only had the vanquish a few days but i am not digging everything.
      Its the tones im really paying attention to.
      Something that is not consistent in a trashy field i cannot be annoyed.
      But im definitely digging consistent high pitch, or if out in open untrashy fields i will dig everything.
      Trashy fields can just be exhausting and put me off unless the place has history that makes it worth the effort.

    Just found your channel. I bought the v340 as a gift for myself after hearing a lot of great things about them. Deep silver coins and relics might be back on the menu again. My first detector was a heavy old Whites that needed 8 batteries and cost 500 in the 1970s so I appreciate these new detectors more than some do. Can`t afford expensive detectors so thank goodness for Minelab making these great machines affordable.

      If you scan the Staples without any discrimination on the machine they don't even come up anyway. Staples are too small and thin for the vanquish to even pick them up, so I don't think it's affecting anyting. I have the Knox 800 also but I have never checked to see if it can pick up the tiny Staples or not. All the best. Joe.

      @pittsburghcoinhunting1452  3 роки тому +2

      The vanquished has pick up a good bit of bent nails and chunks of iron but if you put it in all metal mode it'll discriminate a little better. Usually when it's a better Target the vdi number will be more consistent and less bouncing all over. Do a grid pattern in both directions on an area and on an angle. Then you probably got most of the desirable targets from the area. Iron infested areas make it very difficult separate targets. All the best. JOE.

      For some reason big Rusty Nails and bent Rusty Nails come up as high tones on even the high-end machines. I think the corrosion or something messes with the machine. A lot of times when you watch the vdi number will jump all over the place. On a really good Target the tone will sound good and solid and the numbers will be solid. Best of luck. HH. JOE.

    Just starting with the 540. I was initially very frustrated that I was digging nails when the numbers were high. Should I just ignore the corresponding item icons altogether? Your video shows silver in ranges where the icon is a pull tab or bottle cap. It seems like those icons are almost more distracting ...

    • @pittsburghcoinhunting1452
      @pittsburghcoinhunting1452  2 роки тому +3

      Sometimes you get into some bad ground and big bent nails will give you a high tone. That happens with even the high-end machines. They cut out about 95% of The iron. Better targets like silver will give a stable number on the vdi instead of being all jumpy from high numbers to low numbers. Focus on really good sounding repeatable targets that give a solid vdi number. It may bounce between a few numbers and still be a good Target but if it's bouncing from 20 all the way up to 35 then it's most likely iron. I hope this helps. Best of luck. Joe.

      Believe it or not even with your Garrett if you're skipping all those low tones you're missing different small pieces of gold that comes in just like trash does. And this happens with every metal detector on the market. If you don't dig every tone that's not iron then you're missing gold and silver items. Best of luck to you. HH. JOE.

      I have never found anything made of pewter yet with my Vanquish so unfortunately I can't help you with that one. But if the piece that you found is greenish or reddish then you know it's brass or copper if it is neither of those two colors it might be pewter.

      Pretty much close to the same machine but the 540 comes with a 12 inch coil not a 10 inch coil but if you get the 540 pro pack that comes with a 12-inch coil and a 8in coil. Honestly though if you're into the Hobby and willing to spend a few bucks I would recommend the Equinox 600 or Equinox 800 over the Vanquish. Best of luck. Joe.

      Yes the vdi numbers are the same on all the vanquishes and the Equinox 600 and 800. If you're new to the Hobby try to focus on digging the stable vdi numbers that only jump maybe one or two that'll produce more better targets. If the numbers are bouncing from 20 up into the 30s it's most likely junk but if the depth meter shows four or five arrows I usually dig the jumpy ones but only if it's deep. Best of luck. Joe.
