How can I find pennies?

User Avatar

Asked by TWRIGHTgp5066

You could spend years looking through bank rolls and never find anything worth more than a buck or two. There simply have been too many people searching those coins, and anything worth anything has already been plucked out. You would have to get lucky and catch some rolls that somebody (like a little old lady) has brought out from some stash and taken to the bank.

Asked by Wiki User

first you need to get the battery from the grass in the bottom right corner and put it in the metal detector then you wave it about a bit until starts to beep then you keep searching around that area until it beeps really loud and the round bit glows green then you get the handle from where the battery was and put it on the metal stick to get the spade then you will either dig up a scroll (which is useless) or you will dig up a key by now you need to be at least level 10 to use the red action button to jump the crack then you click the door to use the key to get in! =D

Do body piercing set off metal detectors?

Asked by Wiki User

Yes, a body piercing will set off a metal detector. It also depends on the size and how many piercings you have. It depends upon the sensitivity of the metal detector you are walking through, some are more sensitive than others.

How does the alcohol detector works?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Alcohol in a person's bloodstream passes through the lungs into a person's breath and can be detected using this test. It is very hard to fool!

It depends on the device. Brethalyzers measure electricity created by the presence of alcohol, while blood work uses laboratory testing procedures.

During respiration, blood in the lungs gets vaporized. It's the breath with the vaporized blood that gets measured for alcohol content.

Do lighters go off in metal detectors?

Asked by AnthonyHernandezfb9736

I don't think you can because of the metal on them. Try a book of matches if need be.

Can a metal detector find a buried mobile phone?

All metal detectors detect all metal depending on the level of sensitivity they are set at. Battery or no, a cell phone would be detected.

Do metal detectors give off radiation?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Yes and No. Typical Metal detectors DO NOT give off radiation, but the next generation metal detectors DO. You won't be able to tell which one you are walking through, except for the general rule of thumb that the older looking machines will cause no harm while the other, newer looking machines might.

Will a metal detector pick up White Gold?

Mention the words metal detector and you'll get completely different reactions from different people. For instance, some people think of combing a beach in search of coins or buried treasure. Other people think of airport security, or the handheld scanners at a concert or sporting event.

The fact is that all of these scenarios are valid. Metal-detector technology is a huge part of our lives, with a range of uses that spans from leisure to work to safety. The metal detectors in airports, office buildings, schools, government agencies and prisons help ensure that no one is bringing a weapon onto the premises. Consumer-oriented metal detectors provide millions of people around the world with an opportunity to discover hidden treasures (along with lots of junk). ­In this article, you'll learn about metal detectors and the various technologies they use. Our focus will be on consumer metal detectors, but most of the information also applies to mounted detection systems, like the ones used in airports, as well as handheld security scanners.

Do pencil sharpener blades pick up on metal detectors?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Lead is a metal but pencils do not contain lead. The gray material in pencils is graphite which is a form of carbon. In most pencils a metal ring binds the eraser to the wooden shaft. That could be detected but the graphite would not. A mechanical pencil made of metal or having some metal parts could be detected but not because of the graphite contained therein.

What metals can not be detected by a metal detector?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Technically speaking it can detect through anything, however the depth at which it can detect will be effected by various factors such as density, moisture and more importantly base metals present in the sand and soil layer.

One of the biggest factors is metal density and variety in the soil layer. An area rich in a variety of metals will require a detector with excellent discrimination in order to decipher specific target metals or there will be too much background metal to find a specific object.

Basically it comes down the quality of the detector, the depth it can penetrate and the level of discrimination that it can be set to that will allow it to pick out specific metal combinations. A poor quality detector will get confused and go off constantly if there is a high volume of metals in the soil composition and if it lacks the ability to tune out the "background" noise of those metals.
