[. . . ] this package will be most suitable for postal protection. C-Soope detectors are recognised as the finest detectors available. They are designed with lasting quality in mind. high technology, and above all, value for money. [. . . ] Select the appropriate mode at the Function Switch (S) - i. e. IN LAND site or BEACH site, and select a level of Discriminate at the Function Switch. No Discrimihate - to average discrimination All metal to iron reject and small foil.

Iron and silver foil Discrimination. Discriminate 10 Discriminate 0 Discriminate 10 - As D1 - Discriminate 10. Iron, silver foil and pull tab Discrimination. WARNINGI I f the detector is set to D2 Discriminate 10 as well as rejecting pull tabs, some copper nickel coins and gold rings etc. will be rejected at these severe settings. Copper and solid silver or gold will be detected though. Generally, only set the detector to D2 - lOon sites where the incidence of pull tabs makes detecting impossible otherwise. 9 Sensitivity (R) The SENSITIVITY CONTROL regulates the sensitivity of the detector to drift, instability etc, as well as to metal objects. By increasing the Sensitivity by tuning this control into the + sector the detector will be more prone to drift, erratic signals, ground interference. and all other meter console switches are off and manual ground exclude is set at O. and when the search head is lowered to the ground the signal on the meter falls to the left. then the site has NEGATIVE GAOUND EFFECT caused by iron mineralisation. If when the search head is lowered the signal rises to the right the site has POSITIVE GROUND EFFECT. or 6. . . n If the site has no Ground Effect, when the search head is lowered the meter signal will not fall or rise irrespective of where the manual ground exclude is set. tn this case the Normal Inland Ground setting may be used. This setting causes most normal size iron to be totally ignored. There is no negative signal. l Only good objects register.

[. . . ] Mark the site carefully and report the find at once to the local Police. Learn the Treasure Trove laws and report all finds of gold or silver objects to the Police. If a Coroner's inquest finds that the objects were deliberately concealed with the intention of retrieving them, they become the property of the Crown and therefore Treasure Trove. But even if the British Museum decides to exercise its right to keep the property, the finder is granted the full market value. [. . . ]
