target. If the detector receives a strong signal, the arrow appears steadily. If 

the signal is weak, the arrow blinks or does not appear.   

Note:   

 

    If  an  arrow  points  to  a  coin  denomination,  the  detector  might  be 

detecting either a coin or another type of metal (such as jewelry, tokens, 

medals, or even junk metal) about same size and type as the coin. 

 

    Since the  indications are approximations, the detector  might  not  have 

actually  found  the  item  it  indicates.  The  indicator  is  only  a  visual 

reference to help you decide if an item is worth investigating.     

 

 

    The depth displayed is only a reference, not a real value.
