Minelab Equinox 900 or Nokta Legend?

[Ted S]

Ted, that absolutely makes sense. ROI would most likely not be there. plus limited hunting due to whatever, weather, permissions or health related issues makes it seem like is another purchase really worth it ?Unless there is something truly ground breaking the Manticore will be my last machine. I still have my original 800 from 2018 as back up and have the Legend listed for sale. The last two years age and health have caught up with me plus the ground has been so dry I couldn't bring myself to ask permission to dig in peoples yards. So it was happenstance that sent me back to those old areas with the Manticore, otherwise had I had yard permissions I would have deemed them hunted out after using the 3 previous machines. I was surprised to say the least. Made it back to the one area once in Dec and once in Jan. No silver but on the last trip I dug a toasted V nickel (first coin for 26) 3 wheats and a Jeff. The trip in Dec, a Buff, an Ihp, 2 wheats, a transit token a clad dime and two Jeffs. I know a skunk is coming, my finds keep getting fewer and fewer but I know if a target is to be had, most likely it will be old and that is what keeps me going back. That and lack of permissions. Ha ha. Good luck to you and hope winter has not been to harsh on your area.

Mark.. I will turn 70 this coming June. In Northeast Iowa we had a pretty harsh winter but it is getting into the 30s and 40s this week. I have done quite a bit of research and hope to get 35-50 silvers for the coming season. Now here's a real shocker for the old guys here! I have been asked to go back out and play bass guitar for a rock band. These fellas are in their mid 50s and I actually hired one of them fresh out of high school in the late 80s! So never give up on your goals in life! HH! Ted
