14 INCH SILVER DIME WITH ANFIBIO??

Testing the Anfibio on a 14 inch silver dime in my soil...14 INCH DIME TEST....

DANG!.......... What does the unit air test at? Same settings set it hit the 14" dime.

I have not air tested it yet...

Can you try the Deus and Nox on that please ?

Did it ID the dime correctly so that it's obviously not iron?

I am not surprised based on what I saw at freshwater beach a testing.
Don’t think the Nox can keep up with Anfibio multi on high conductor at depth in mild soil.

What machine on the market can ID a 14 inch dime? I will test it with the deep ID on and see it will give us a good number...

I will give me a day or two..sanjuro Wrote:

Good info---what kHz was it on?

14 kh

Thanks---do you think it would hit on 5 or 20?

I wonder if a CZ-3D with the 10.5" coil would hit it?
I bet it would with the Sunray FZ12 Coil.

Dont surprise me..

My A19 is on par maybe slightly hotter than Troy X5 on same freq.

I can airtest a dime at 17 inches and a nickle at 20 Inches.

Nice thing with Anfibio Multi.
In milder ground using 14 or 20khz even using deep mode with stock coil, detector not tied up in knots in iron like some other models. And the potential for striking deeper is there while getting some pretty darn good separation- low conductors, mid level conductors and high conductors.

Although heavy as $&%# the 10.5 coil wasn't that much deeper then the 8", but with the elliptical receive coil it was stealthy on coins on edge, it was a heavy beast though. The Sunray FZ12 was my favorite CZ coil. Come to think of it, I still have one, although I sold off my CZ detectors....hmm.

It doesn't have to be a number. Tone ID will do. Just so it tells us it's not iron.

The deepest silver dime in my test garden is 12 inches. My T2, F75, DeepTech Vista Gold and EQX 800 in Gold mode will all pick it up and ID it correctly or at the very least say that it's non ferrous. 12 inches seems to be close to the edge of detection with these machines in my soil.

The Impact also air tested off the charts. My experience with these hyper gain units is that they all air test well, and thus handle benign soils well too. But they die a quick death in mineral. I hate to use the over used cliche about running high beams in fog...but that's the best analogy of it. That's where I'm a bit jealous of you guys with good soil. My experience has shown that thick iron spots/sites have the same effect (or similar) as heavy mineral. It's a matter of masking and the high beams in fog thing is applicable there too. When I get into a heavy iron site, I drop the sensitivity way off and go to smaller coils. I don't want a machine that is already running wide open but that's just me and how I approach such a site and situation.

yep! my money's on the 12' fz coil too! 35 year old technology coupled with "killer" after market coil.

(h.h.!)
j.t.

That pretty good ! I waiting the comparaison between other, im pretty sure it will hit the 15inch with 5khz .

I would put money on the CZ not going that deep. Fourteen on a little buried dime is friggen deep!! Look down into a 14" deep x 6" diameter hole, you need a flashlight for crying out loud.....love it.

I would what kind if depth it would get at the beach. Probably not that great being single frequency.

.

Badger..... i suspect very good depth in the DRY sand. The DFX, MXT and other machines in that 13 ..15khz range did a good job depth wise...... and sensitivity.

Daniel....... kind of the same situation i have for salt water hunting. Most do a very good job air testing and even on the wet sand...... but put those coils under a lot of salt water and things begin to change. IMO BBS still looses less depth/HALO vs air tests.

Exactly right. I'm willing to bet that, in mineralized ground, the true multi-frequency units will be deeper. These depth tests in benign soil mean nothing to those of us who hunt in heavy mineralized soil.

I need someone to ship me some dirt so I can put it in my test bed........

But Calabash seems hunting in his soil (in his area) may indeed find some deeeper relics and coins vs using 11” equippped Etrac, CTX, Equinox. And even the oem coiled F75 units. Even the Impact with stock supplied coil.

Other folks too living where soil is milder can too.

Question is what soil mineralization levels is the breaking point where these other detectors (multi frequency) catch up ???
I don’t know. Educated guess strong 3 bars soil. (F75 meter)
But with time as more Anfibio users buy and use in various parts of country and world, maybe we will get some idea.

Equinox very close to Anfibio depth wise on lower conductors milder soil.
Higher conductors advantage Anfibio.
At least what I have seen.

Emi
Emi can be a factor too.
And multi freq detectors like fbs and Nox here can have advantage and this could indeed give them advantage depending.

Just reporting my thoughts based on the actual equipment use.

I have tested a few FZ-12 coils …… and the stock Fisher 10.5" coil is a slightly better performer..... both in depth and ID accuracy.

You guys are spot-on with minerals statement.
In a nutshell...….. as mineralization (of any kind) is increased...…. single freq units real-world performance will 'ramp-down' rapidly. Simultaneous Multi-Freq units real-world performance will 'ramp-down' not quite as rapid/fast.
Anfibio's performance in Florida inert dirt is phenomenal. EMI is my largest performance inhibitor. This holds true with different brand detectors. For the past 12 years..... I have been on a large (concerted effort) EMI mitigation campaign with several Mfr's.

Damned Impressive would be an understatement. Thanks CD.... very informative.
I'll be anxiously waiting to see how others like the Nox, Deus, AT Max/Gold etc etc would compare.

Could this be the detector to obsolete all Equinox detectors ? LOL

Maybe place some rusty nails on top of that hole to see what happens for $#*ts and giggles ?

2nd that, it would quickly look very average against the Nox on low conductors in my soil.

Daniel, TN should ship You some of His Ole' hot ground.
It must be hot as heard about it for years. Ha!
