I found a sold 3-grammer shaped like a .22 bullet that gave a faint but clear signal at about 1520 cm.

Nice bit mfdes sdc amazes me hopefully can put the coil over something bigger than sub gramers cheers Muk.

Thanks for the depth comparison info.. I used my SCD for the first time last week and I found a piece of lead shot down at about 15cm. no gold to compare it too or scales to weigh but was certainly less than a gram. I was pretty impressed it could pick something so small up at that depth.

G'day OCA81well done on the shot I've found shot of all different sizes at all sorts of depths,SDC pics up some tiny stuff sometimes I'm not sure if I'm getting a signal so scrape some off the top still not sure scrape some more then turns into a clear signal most times shot or tiny bit of wire
There must of been a lot of shoguns being used in the old days cheers Muk.
