[QUOTE="Heatho, post: 144994, member: 487"] A bit of discrimination won't hurt unless there are numerous bits of junk in say every square foot then it will just constantly blank on every swing. there may be good targets under iron also. I'd say dig a few targets see how the Iron junk is spaced out. The discrim on the 5k is not like a coin hunting detector but it does work and can save you from digging some Iron junk. A smaller DD would be better for heavilly Iron infested areas but I'd only purchase another DD if serious on using it as a coin hunter occasionally in such areas. Set the Iron reject in the middle or a bit higher for aggresive discrim. See how you go mate, hope you get some good stuff. [/QUOTE]
