AT-Gold finds me my first seated coin!!
March 29, 2013 11:23PM
Well I took the AT-Gold out to a spot I've hunted a ton with Etracs,T2Se,CZ-5,CZ3D,and I pulled 3 great coins a 1890 Seated Dime,1907 Indian Head Penny, and a 51 Roosevelt. I also have hunted this site with the AT-Pro and don't see how I missed these coins using it. I was using the AT-Gold with 8.5x11" coil hunting in disc 1 iron disc at 30 and sensitivity at 1 bar from max. I am really liking the AT-Gold this detector is a great machine and it's getting the job done for me!! These coins were all in the 7-9" range and the AT-Gold screamed out that dig me high tone on all three.

Seated coins are always fun to dig...Congrat's...

Nnd in dense nails high freq will unlock better in certain circumstances...

Again no one machine will get it all at every site...fact's of Life ..

Good to keep an arsenal of machine's...for eye opening result's...

I had hoped the DEUS would be a multi machine replacer yet TO ME it is not...to many other uncontrolled variables in detector design than just freq and reactivity to emulate a standalone...

Glad you have the AT-PRO and the AT-GOLD in field eye opening results will soon follow,good and bad for each...

ghello there 88junior what do you think of the at gold so far and what are you getting depth wise out of it?

Since getting the AT-Gold I haven't used my AT-Pro it seems to be a little better in nails and it's depth is very good I have dug coins in the 9" range, the soil in my area is moderately mineralized. My soil has topsoil that's usually 9-10" then you hit clay which doesn't allow coins to hardly sink there fore I think the reason why I have seldom found coins over the 11" mark. The AT-Gold is a awesome machine and it separates targets very well in iron. I am going to keep my AT-Pro as a back-up loan a friend detector it's a great machine but since getting the AT gold I have found more silver than I have had in 3-4 years of hunting using other brands of detectors.

how would you compare it to the g-2?
Re: AT-Gold finds me my first seated coin!!
April 03, 2013 12:56AM
It is very similar in target seperation in iron but with more depth, I loved the G2 but it just didn't seem to hit on the higher conductors as well as the AT-Gold does.

Thanks Kevin it was a very good hunt for me. I had never found a seated coin in my 20 years of detecting and was beginning to wonder if I ever would!!

well I 'll be honest with you I've never been really a garrett fan but I know the at line up is different from the green machines so who knows I just wish it would handle the salt water better

Brandon if your hunting salt water get a AT-Pro it will handle it will handle salt water better and the AT-Pro is a very good machine as well.

Ahhhh really I've had my fortey of beach hunting and it doesn't do much for me I usually find enough aluminum to start my own recyclry shop I've found more rings on fresh water beaches and farm fields than I do the ocean so I think i'm going to try a gold just as soon as I sell the gti 2500 garrett
