    MANTICORE HITS DEEP OLD LEAD SOLDIER

    Wow. It still has some red paint on it. At that depth, it might be quite a historical find.

    Manticore UK Ring find September

    That's a real stunner.

    a bullet, a knife and silver

    I haven't posted here much as of late. I had zero time for detection but now that Fall is here (almost winter really), I had the time to go out once more. The finds included here are the result of four outings done this past month. Good targets are harder to find but I can still dig up a silver...

    Short hunt today....

    Very nice set of silver coins in great condition !

    Four silver dimes and a quarter before the storm.

    I took the Equinox 600 out for possibly the last time this year since the first winter storm is in the forecast (actually started while I'm writing this). It was another productive 4 hour hunt in the woods. Same spot I was in last time and I found these 4 silver dimes and a silver quarter. I...

    First outing with Manticore

    I find it interesting that it seems to separate similar sized copper and silver in its ID reading. In Park 1 on the Nox 600, I cannot distinguish between a copper penny and a silver dime.

    another day another 75 cents

    What's funny is that there are coins under the path which is made of crushed rock (poured by the city over whatever surface there was before). The problem is digging them up. One almost has to use an ice pick. Some day I'll put the bigger coil on and just do the walking paths with an old shovel...

    another day another 75 cents

    Went to the same place I had luck last time with the Nox 600. After about 2 hours all I had was a silver dime and a few pennies. I went to the other side of the path and found a nice coin drop with a silver dime, silver quarter and the nickel close together. Not too far from there, another...

    outdated Nox 600 ends 2022 with a bang !

    I haven't been here in awhile and OMG I wasn't even aware that Minelab had a new version of the 600/800. Heck I just bought my 600 a little more than a year ago ! I knew about the Manticore as a buddy detector has one on order. Anyways, doing fine with my 600. Got some time to go out more at...

    Hunt

    That's a great looking ring !

    Hunt

    You nailed it ! In trashy sites, a small coil is THE secret weapon.

    doesn't have to be said but I'll say it anyway

    That's exactly why I'd like them to come out with something to compete with the other mutli freq options out there now. I'd be all over it knowing it would probably trounce my Nox. I've had a similar experience to you with an F19 that I bought used. Great company. I hope they will be here for a...

    What would be the best beginner detector for clay soil?

    Almost all clay soil here as well and hard packed. I'm using the Nox 600 with good results for copper and silver coins. If you can afford one or the other (Nox 600 or 800), download Minelab's user manual to know the differences between both machines and figure out if you need the added features...

    my first merc of 2022

    Thanks. I'm using the Nox 600 with the 6" coil exclusively since the day I got it. My silver coin count has increased tremendously since then. I meshed with this detector the instant I started using it. It's not perfect but I like it. I still have my Teknetics G2+ for the beach and my Nokta Fors...
