    Just curious about what your expectations are when considering to buy a metal detector, from both experienced and who just started detecting.

    I would advise getting a machine that is suited to what you are detecting for If you are a relic hunter then you really don't need a lot of the features such as notch and tone options. If you hunt for jewelry I would be looking for units that have some higher frequencies to choose from a long...

    Good morning guy's

    I use a lesche Samson shovel with the ball ends. When I got mine they were still hovering in the 50 dollar range They are almost double now. I have tried a predator shovel with the T handle and I went back to this one. It is much easier to maneuver whole digging the hole with the ball end than...

    The New XP ICON & ICONIC??

    I think the depth feature is great. That is one thing I wished they had done previously. I hope this isn't going to take forever to release.

    All these testers

    The biggest problems I have with the testers on YouTube is the so called 3D iron test. Like, how in the world is this even a concept?.....we live in a multi dimensional world and detect stuff in the ground which is also multi dimensional.....so how does a coin above or below a nail become 3...

    Some reflections on the current state of silver coin hunting

    The high conductor program will use lower frequencies which draw more power from the battery I tried to use the low conductor program but it was too chattery in the area I hunted last. It was prone to false more near the outer edges of iron. As far as the disc range goes in the Nickle region...

    Some reflections on the current state of silver coin hunting

    Yes exactly. What made detecting fun again for me was the original minelab Xterra vflex units. Prior to that I was using an old fisher 1260 which served it's time well but was outdated with the new units. The Xterra units were not that deep of a machine but everything less than 8 inches were...

    Some reflections on the current state of silver coin hunting

    I have been around this hobby since 1982. We (my brother and I) never found a ton of goodies in one day ever. A handful of clad coins and trinkets here and there with 4 to 5 silvers thrown in the mix was a stellar day. It has been a while since I had one of those days myself. Matter of fact I...

    I had the anfibio as well. Wished I held onto it. Found a merc first day out with it and a presidential token too. The control lay out is great. I had a kruzer as well. A couple of those actually I actually liked the kruzers lay out a little better. However, I think I like the tones on the...
