[QUOTE="Secret Squirrels, post: 383943, member: 7917"] I tend to get a lot of 1c & 2c coins in the areas that hold pre decs, so it is a good thing. :Y: Also 60% of them seem to be 1966, first year of decimal. They sell for anywhere between $1 & $15 on ebay, so it's much better than hunting goldies. :D I have a pro find and it does the same as your carrot, once the target has been extracted it still gives off a more mellow and slower signal. This is called the halo effect, over time the minute particles of the metal seeps into the surrounding soil, and it is this residue the pointer is picking up, Always double check with the detector before back filling or closing the hole. :) [/QUOTE]
