[QUOTE="nuggetino, post: 215039, member: 1884"] Could be a target. Did you notice the signal getting louder as you were digging deeper? If so you're getting closer to it. if it sounds the same it's possible you're digging to the side of the target. Take your detector and swing it carefully around the outside and over the hole you dug to find out where the signal is loudest. If you still can't determine exactly where it's coming from you can dig the hole wider rather than deeper and see if it's easier to pinpoint. It's certainly possible to dig much deeper than half a foot to recover targets. When you find your first horseshoe you'll know what I mean. The ground you're digging in can often tell you if you're onto something good too. If you're still digging topsoil/clay when the target comes out the hole then you're likely not in the good stuff yet. If you get down to gravels or bedrock and the target is still in the hole it's always exciting. [/QUOTE]
