    It was my first real metal detector. The 5" coil made quite a difference on coins. You basically set one control to get the putt-putt and an increase in sound over metal, then used the other control to set the meter at halfway. Then, all iron and foil would cause the meter to deflect down to reject and other metals would cause the meter to deflect to good.
