If you use your detector in earnest, it could easily pay for itself many sometimes with the old coins and artifacts to be found. Many people think that the treasure hunt requires you to dig large holes to retrieve the lost coins and jewelry. This does not work that way because the lost items are not always as deep, but there are times when you know it's time to dig deep!

Decomposition is more of leaves, sticks and grass that make up the topsoil. It takes a long, long time for the issues that really sink into the ground.

A perfect example cents of this is finding great hunters and colonial coins in just a few inches deep. We believe that a coin depth about 6 to 8 inches. If the soil has not been altered, (top layer of soil is there) that sometimes you get a thorough reading of the detector needed to dig deeper. With most detectors of the Top-White 's, Garrett, Fisher, Tesoro, Bounty Hunter, Teknetics, Minelab, etc., which is not a problem. They have a deep capacity for any old coin depth.
