[QUOTE="Hawkear, post: 666491, member: 4728"] 0.25 is a small nugget and without knowing it’s shape, the soil or the detector settings, and your hearing capabilities if not using a headphone, you may be hard put to find another detector to do even that under the same conditions you tested. Many detector/coil combinations would miss it entirely and that is the reason why it has been so successful in picking up so many of those small nuggets missed by other detectors prior to its release. The top few inches of goldfield soils are full of vast numbers of gold particles from microscopic size through to .1gr nuggets that my 23 easily picks up at depths of just a few inches. If I ever needed any convincing about the strengths of the 23, it was on our last trip west. Both using 23s we found one broad area that produced 120 tiny nuggets for just over 6 grams total in one days detecting for us (80 for me 40 for my wife). That is an average size of just 0.05grams. I had been to that same area on an earlier trip and found only a few bits with my then 4500. [/QUOTE]
