As I stated in another thread... It does work - to find absolutely anything. And that is what confuses me. I can find empty plastic gas lines buried 3 ft deep.

I've done it for years. There is nothing evil of it nor is it anything to do with witching.
I once read a university study on this activity. It is entirely scientific that is thorougly explained scientific.
I can also take two wire coat-hangers, bend them on right angles and hold one in each hand with the hozontal ends pointing due forward, they will turn in my hand to point toward each other as I pass over various objects such as sewer and pipelines, electrical lines and other things that I might be looking for.

Does it have to be large objects? What about coins?

I'm not sure.
I think that it has to be somewhat larger objects.
I had an uncle (now deceased) that worked as an underwater welder. He has found pipelines lying on the bottom of the shallow Gulf waters by slowing plying the waters back and forth while standing on the bow of a boat, using this method.

A friend of mine is really good at witching water...
I had to laugh, we were in our church building renovation and we needed to find a water line, so my friend witched it dead on. My grandfather who was also a Oneness preacher used to do it and I have seen it done several times outside, but I had never seen it done indoors
Talk about counterintuitive...I don't think anyone even told the pastor about it.

As to studies... they abound both to prove and disprove the scientific nature of it.
The coat hanger you describe is how I have done it. It does not matter if you have one or two...
Now the part I bolded is key... I have found it matters not what it is you are looking for, but just that you are looking for it!

Yes, that has been my experience as well. I have never looked for anything as small as a coin as I recall. I don't know why it wouldn't work though.
I've shown my wife how I do that but for some reason, it does not work with her. I'm not sure why that is. I told her that it might be her lack of faith...

I have never felt anything evil about it. Just spooks me that it works.
