Enjoyed your video . Purchased a mxt tracker e- series today . My 1st metal detector. I found a copper sword scabbard a month ago while deer hunting and decided to start relic hunting ! ha!

Hello Mr. Strongside. I enjoy your videos very much, thank you for taking the time to show the differnt readings for different coins. I'm sure it helps the people just getting into metal detecting and people purchasing the White's mxt. The only thing I might add to your video on nickel readings is that when the weather has been rainy for a while and the ground is soaked, it reads 22 on nickels, something to do with the water in the soil. Thanks again for the videos. Rick.

Just picked up an original MXT last week off Craigslist. Looking forward to some coin shooting. Thanks for all the tips.

Good video Bro... Nickels are hard to master, but with a good detector and sharp mind/intuition you can separate them from the trash... When in doubt, dig... ;-)

Hi. What coil was used while testing the coins? And how was the setup of the detector; especially where was the ground toggle set? Good Luck on your next hunt. Vito

My advice is you better dig everything or you will miss out on alot of rings and nickels,,,,,,Depth and trash with a good target will also give you odd vdi numbers

Good video. I always did anything that bounces from 20-22. I found a titanium ring once that way. Still though non-consistant VDIs usually means junk.
