AT-Pro Ring VDI Numbers and Sound Demonstration Video - Gold, Silver, Platinum Rings

[@chip5256]

I own 11 detectors. 5 are Garrett’s (2 Ace 250s and 3 ATPros. All 3 have a 5x8 coil.). I have a Tesoro and 5 Minelabs. My ATPs are all 5-6 years old and well used. I hunt nearly every day 3-5 hours or more. I use those ATPs 95% of the time . I have found some wonderful finds. I’ve been Vaughn Garrett’s Find Of The Month twice, I’ve been published in a number of magazines in the US, UK and Scotland and a local news station did a segment on me. I agree the ATP is the best machine I’ve ever used.

[@MiTreasureHunter]

Awesome!! You sound like you should be making videos, lots of activity to film.

[@graysondigger]

Nice vid. I recently found a 0.5 gram 10K earring with my ATP that came in at 38-39. One thing you didn't show was foil. It comes up as 39-42 and always has a very slight iron tone along with the mid-tone. Also gold never rings a high tone like Mike said. If his does he should send it in for repair I have 50 videos now over the last two years and I don't think those $1500.00 and up machines can find much more than the AT Pro does. (Much less being waterproof) Good luck and HH!

[@bladedigger]

Great video!! looking forward to more demonstration videos for the Atpro. Never would of thought that a stainless steel ring would come in at those numbers. Thanks!

[@ThelifeandtimesofBarneyTaylor]

I cannot believe how many rings I have possibly passed up thanks dig it all went to at pro 5 months back that's a heck of a machine

[@JArtMiller]

Not as slick of a production, but your video has more content than many others combined. Good information. Good job. Keep it straight forward.

[@MiTreasureHunter]

Super old video, basically one of my first ever made. I was not concerned about being fancy, just offering helpful information.

[@MiTreasureHunter]

Still loving the AT Pro 4 years later and strongly believe there is no better or more versatile land AND water detector (in its price range). My units have not been babied, I have put them thru some abuse and still work great! I think it may be time to do another AT Pro video with the 2 other coils I have the 5X8 and the Super Sniper.

[@Enigmaprince]

Maybe it would be worth mentioning that there is difference between the standard and pro mode. Pro mode can also help recognizing bottle caps forexample. If u get a good high tone on standard mode. u can double check that with pro mode and if its still a clean high tone its a coin or mostly a good target but if it shows on pro mode a sound of low-high-low tone it probably a bad bottlecap :)

[@LTVX2]

I'm using a NEL Sharp Shooter... love it !! GREAT IN TRASH

[@ChingFong58]

Just upgraded and got my new ATpro yesterday. Still Winter, not out yet, but am anticipating a great season... Great info on vid.

[@sherieward7707]

Awesome video my friend I appreciate you sharing this I use a ATP Pro and an in Michigan as well very cool. This was very helpful thank you 😊 Keep Digging Best wishes

[@oarell1]

Great video! Thanks for taking the time to make it.

[@3497dingo3497]

The best video . You did a great job and thank ypu from an AT Pro vet.

[@alanmair9717]

hi great vid im still learning my at pro ive always used pro custom .is there a deeper depth using pro zero? please help

[@chrisanderson9276]

So what you're saying is dig it all. Good video and very useful reference video.GL&HH

[@KJ4TUG]

Very helpful. Thanks for posting this and looking forward to your next tests.

[@trekmanfuel]

Thank you for posting this video, great job!.for the small 14k ear ring did it also throw of the depth reading or were you actually that far above it? I am trying to help a young woman find a small sterling promise ring that was only lost a day ago, so naturally I would have thought it would be right on top of the grass. After testing at 4 inches in the ground with some larger silver rings I found my depth reading was deeper by an inch or two. This is why i am asking.

[@donaldfulton3815]

Well done- thanks for sharing and showing the settings. I always get fooled if I put my Pro in Standard so think I will just follow your lead. :)

[@inspiretodream3]

Thank you! This was very informative. I have the AT Pro and my husband at the AT Max. I was only digging up targets when I would get the higher pitch sound.

[@MiTreasureHunter]

There are going to be fanboys and haters out there disagree but the AT-Pro machines have found me more gold then any other machine. Still by far the best bang for the buck machine on the market, as long as not dealing with saltwater. Glad it helped. I may be making an updated video of the AR-Pro and one with the AT-Max

[@Anthem-nd8sh]

Scary! I have been hunting with the AT Pro for 6 years now and have found tons of silver items. Not as much gold. Every solid signal I have dug in the 40's has always been trash. So I have been ignoring those targets for years and only digging solid sounding targets over 50. Based on your vid looks like I have left some gold in the ground

[@MiTreasureHunter]

Let's hope not, but I would dig everything 40 and over just to be safe. GL & HH

[@undraftedplayer]

Dig it all ! Many thanks to sharing, all the best.

[@hawkstarbuck3462]

Great Video TH! Good info to keep on my cheat sheet while hunting.

[@oOTBONE77Oo]

I’m fairly new to metal detecting and this is my first detector... at this stage if it makes a noise i always dig it..

[@MiTreasureHunter]

It takes time but once you know your machine you won't have to dig so much trash. Great Hobby, Happy Hunting!

[@LTVX2]

Good vid, no wasted time, nice selection of metals, eye opening :)

[@MiTreasureHunter]

Thank you! Enjoyed doing it.

[@gregorym9591]

thanks, great video. I just got mine so I am a neeeewwwww bi . you do need a lot of time learning the ropes. Patience , patience ,patience. and those tree roots stink. (lol) would the 5x8 make a big difference in junk areas?

[@jordanguerin9940]

Most useful video I've watched thus far! Thanks. So, if you are searching in the sand/beach, how many notches down would you go..For example, the gold ear ring that was reading 38-39...What do you think that would read buried in the sand? Dirt? Thanks a bunch. Good luck hunting!

[@MiTreasureHunter]

Buried in sand here in Michigan, at a reasonable depth of 1 to 4 or 5 inches the numbers are going to stay nearly identical. Now in other areas where there is high mineralization then I can not say because I have never tested in that type of situation.

[@Mithranos]

Great Vid. I love my AT PRO!

[@MiTreasureHunter]

@JimInWesternMass As a rule, no matter how much in my mind I know its a pull tab...I ALWAYS dig it. Atleast 2 times its been nice Gold rings.

[@RobThePlumber]

Great video thanks for posting the video!

[@jordanguerin9940]

Also, do you always run on "Pro Zero" mode, sensitivity down "4 notches" (judging from the tutorial you did). Any tips for best spots on beach to search? I have been by shoreline, but Machine will go crazy with all the shells buried and mineralization effects and just digging up shells sometimes it seems (Note: "ground balanced" as well following the instructional video from Garrett At Pro on how to ground balance). Any suggestions to avoid that problem? Also, do you ever get wrong or false reads on your At Pro and then dig up NOTHING, not even junk (sadly enough lol)? Also, how accurate is the reader and how often when things are buried in sand/Soil? Will it read a number a couple times and then dissapear? That happens often..I'll have a ring between the 50-60 range, get excited and then can't get a read in the exact spot moments later.. Am I doing something wrong or is that "Standard" when searching that sometimes you just get false reads ? Quite annoying and time consuming, kind of like this "Comment" lol. Sorry, but just needed an experts advice.

[@MiTreasureHunter]

Yes I always run in Pro Zero, sensitivity either 4 or 5. My hunting environment is a lot more forgiving, we do not have the mineralization in Michigan. I hunt the towel line after people start leaving and in the water I study where most people are hanging out and concentrate in that area.

[@trgagg2002]

thank you so much ,i have been waiting for someone to make a video like that .man that helps me out a lot.great video man.HH

[@1976smell]

best metal dectecting informational video I've seen :D

[@JiminWesternMass]

There was a distinction form the pull tab compared to the numbers given from the plat. and gold, but still it would make me think twice rather to dig or not! Only because the numbers were so close! Ahrrr.. I'm deciding if I should dig right now and I don't even have a detector in my hand! :)

[@MiTreasureHunter]

@ Mike Denton...I appreciate your comments but I respectfully disagree about ANY gold showing up in the 80's on the AT-PRO. Yes in the ground the numbers can show differently....but Gold absolutely NEVER reads that high on the AT-PRO. 80's on the ATP is silver, clad coins, and aluminum. I will gladly bury all my gold rings and film it to prove it. I have run the ATP since it was released and have mastered it. Take care and happy hunting.

[@11111972cjb]

MiTreasureHunter. I have the same model AT Pro and then I purchased the international model and guess what? It's more sensitive than the previous model. I still have both models and you don't have to believe me but please, try it out for yourself. I couldn't believe it! Cheers.

[@taylorcaldwell4050]

My very best gold diamond ring came up as a 48-49 on my AT Pro! I dig everything above 40.. Sometimes even If I know it's junk... I have to dig it anyway because I can't stand the thought of walking over gold! There's a video of me finding the ring on my channel - check it out! Awesome video - thanks!

[@michaelmott1498]

excellent video!

[@MiTreasureHunter]

Make sure to come follow and sub to me on BitChute since YT is trying to get rid of my channel!! www.bitchute.com/channel/mitreasurehunter/

[@05222007MER]

Thanks, been trying to learn the AT Pro. Going to try your info. Think I've had my sensitivity set too high too. GL&HH :)

[@MiTreasureHunter]

Stay tuned. There are more AT-Pro video demonstrations coming. Targets placed in different configurations as well as tests done with the 5x8DD coil and the Super Sniper coil.

[@alicetharpe3888]

I am a late comer to this world of MD. I just purchased an AT pro and am learning the machine. One thing that really puzzles me is; why, when a target is shallow, does it show a depth of 4-6"? I have dug deeper holes when I didn't need to. Is it because of the shape of the target, like bent up tin vs a solid target like a coin?

[@RandomJ2023]

Well, I wont be running with 40-50 Elim any more. Thanks for the video!

[@theoben1972]

hi have you ever taken your AT pro on salt water beaches and how well do they work on it

[@pgreyling834]

Does not work. The surf will set it off every time it comes in.

[@fisttaface]

Do Garrett detectors read metal on the same scale. I have a Garrett Ace 300, and wondering if it would put down the same numbers at the AT pro

[@MiTreasureHunter]

The Ace 350? I've never run the machine if thats the one your talking about.

[@fisttaface]

I have the ace 300, its pretty new, its the new and improved replacement for the ace 250. But I will prob end up getting the AT Pro in the next month or so because I am already hooked on treasure hunting.

[@MiTreasureHunter]

+Bryan .Young You really can't go wrong with an AT Pro unless you want to hunt in salt water.

[@donfulton5765]

Very well done- I run Pro Coin with discrim. at 21 and the machine works well. :)

[@MiTreasureHunter]

Don Fulton I still love this machine. Looking forward to Summer and getting back in the water to hunt.

[@jimbonito3766]

would this be a good example of why some dig it all

[@eccentricsmithy2746]

Wont the numbers be different in actual soil then a simple air test?

[@MiTreasureHunter]

Numbers can change according the type and depth of soil the target is in. One freshwater sand beaches the numbers seem to stay accurate to the air test to a minimum of 4 inches. GL HH.

[@ilariopalazzo9126]

Ciao , bravo ottimo lavoro , video molto bello e interessante :-)

[@mikedenton25]

Hey you should have buried them I have a AT PRO and when there in the ground mine show up at 83 all 7 of them so far

[@DiggingSylence]

Thx for the Video , proven to me that i am on a good way with my AT . Have disc at 34 and digging all singnals up then . Many ppl here say ( i am from Germany ) they dont digg over 80 because to 99 % its junk . For 2 Days i got a nice german Luftwaffe koppelschloss emblem(The belt secure thingy) what is out from Aluminium :-) on 84 What whas the highest Number on Silver u ever get ? Sry for my English* :-)

[@HOMER122767]

Great vid

[@MiTreasureHunter]

Thank you, made it many years ago but still good to know it's still helping people.

[@jeremy74pow]

I would like to know why my AT Pro will find rings but will not detect gold chains. There's a million videos doing tests with rings. No one tests chains.

[@MiTreasureHunter]

jeremy74pow Hardly any metal detectors on the market can detect fine gold necklaces/chains. People who do find one either it's a heavy link chain, it was balled up tight thus creating a larger target, the necklace has a large clasp, or most commonly they are detecting a charm or pendant that is on the chain. You don't see videos about it because detectors are just plain bad at detecting them. I have tested several from At-Pro, to CTX 3030, to my XP Deus and all fail. The Deus almost hits it but in the ground no way it would see it. Those who might disagree I say prove it by making a video clearly demonstrating your detector and use several size and style chains - no pendants or charms on the chain.

[@jeremy74pow]

Thanks, that's what I was wondering, if other detectors could pick them up. We tried three different detector, AT Pro, Garret 250, and a whites, none of those picked up the chain even when bunched up. And like you said the only time I have found chain was when there was something on it. I actually find more gold a silver ripping apart old dryers than I do detecting. BTW, great video. I was doing the same thing the other day and was wondering what platinum would read cause I haven't found one with the AT Pro yet. Thanks again.

[@mikedenton25]

Ok first off awesome video really appreciate this, ok now I now what things come up as I have been passing signals like this left and right because I usually just dig junk but a guy stopped me while I was going hunting yesterday and he threw his ring on the ground and it hit 53 and it looked gold ok I let a friend use my machine well he wasn't a friend at the time this is how we met he dug a gold ring and I didn't pay attention but he said it was hitting 80s

[@RandomJ2023]

Also, seems rather counter to human tendancy to assign silver and quarters the high pitch tone, Garrett should have designed the 50-60 with the higher pitch tone lol

[@scottneidigk7533]

well done

[@RBYW1234]

I just wanna know what sound platinum makes

[@MiTreasureHunter]

Same as Gold. It was the very first ring tested. 1:50 into the video.

[@RBYW1234]

What sound dose gold make when hitting gold - Not the sound of a metal detector.

[@gregorylarsson7795]

I dig 47 and up. But im gonna start digging even down to 40, even if it means a shit ton of foil

[@MiTreasureHunter]

Around 40 is alot of foil for sure, but 47 is WAY to high to start at. Definitely going to miss gold starting that high. GL & HH

[@gregorylarsson7795]

Actaully got a 14K gold ring yesterday after that text. Went out to some ball fields. Rang up 62-63

nebu7777 Good luck, the season has officially started here in Michigan 👍👍

[@markholbrook3949]

The only thing that kept me from buying the AT Pro was its poor performance in wet sand... As it turns out it didnt matter anyways as Ive bought a seperate machine for that. (Whites Beach hunter 300) for salt and the F75 for land.. Oh well

[@theroller5673]

Since you have to dig everything anyway, and because the numbers and the depth are never right, save yourself about $500 dollars and buy a Bounty Hunter Tracker IV. No bells, no whistles, same results. I have both machines.

[@MiTreasureHunter]

I never dig everything, waste of time. Learn your machine. Also that is horrible advice. Those cheap metal detectors are absolute Garbage!!

[@theroller5673]

@@MiTreasureHunter- Wow. Get fucked.

[@markholbrook3949]

Be careful with these numbers.. If you own a F75 your gold most likely will be in the 20s.. Same as foil...

[@MiTreasureHunter]

+mark holbrook this is for the AT-Pro specifically. I have run it now for many years, I can assure people the numbers are accurate.

[@markholbrook3949]

[@nicparker3809]

pretty much over priced junk , all the parts are made in china.
