[QUOTE="littlehugger, post: 3619047, member: 58633"]I started decades ago, with a talking Garrett. I did buy a pinpointer once. It just seemed to be more trouble carrying it, along with everything else, and juggling stuff around to use it. Your detectors field goes both up and down. You can lay it down near the coin you just pinpointed with the coil within reach, and as you pull out the dirt and plugs, run it over the coil. It will beep when you find it. You should get the same beep and verification as your detector originally gave. If not, it may be multiple targets. Most detectors have pinpoint feature that works well. I also find that open coil helps too. You can eyeball the spot to mark it in your mind before moving the coil to dig. You can also stick your digger in the ground thru that center hole before moving the coil. Due to health probs, I still have my detectors. I should sell, but it feels like giving up, sigh![/QUOTE]
