[QUOTE="PhaseTech, post: 676638, member: 3149"] Yes OzzieAu is correct. It is similar to a coin detector, except it happens in pin-point mode which is non-motion. So you can't whip the coil between targets like you would with a fast recovery coin detector. A coin detector usually gives a beep tone during normal detection, and an all-metal modulated tone response in pin-point mode to help centre the target. So you are basically deciding to dig before you hit pin-point. With the E1500, the primary search mode is already tone modulated, so the pin-point mode is more a target interrogation mode, which displays a target ID based on conductivity. There is also no hi/low or low/high tone change when in pin-point mode, it is just a monotone beep. So, yes you could use it in a coin hunting scenario where you are cherry picking high target ID's, the only thing is there is no blanking on any target ID's, so don't take it to a trash filled picnic area! One application I can see for this is a Bow & Arrow club, where they lose arrows. The arrow heads are going to provide a very similar ID, so they could use it to ignore other ID's that are far off. Here's a few ID's of some gold and coins: prickly 0.6g gold - 02 5.2g gold specie - 11 0.63g clean gold - 12 1g flat gold - 14 2.2g flat gold - 18 5c - 25 10c - 33 20c - 44 50c - 50 worn sixpence - 73 Hope that helps to explain it.
