Nox 800 on silver

fwcrawford said:
You make a good point, but make no mistake.... there are still quite a few silver coins on public sites.
I realized this last year after getting the Equinox.... these sites where I found silver coins were all public except for one private yard that gave up a silver quarter.
1 silver coin out of 76 coins I found last year.
And the amazing thing is these sites are still giving up silver this year.
I think a lot has had to do with the Equinox, but a lot has to do with determination and research too.

There are some parks near my area and I keep hitting every once in a while especially when I get a new machine I’m always picking up silver. And that’s in the last 40 years so yes there is a lot of silver out there still but nothing is like when it was in the late 70s early 80s That’s when detecting was awesome silver was everywhere.
So when I get the new machine I bet you I’ll find a silver or two in the same parks.

I love to get the Nox 800. But After reading allot I read its not the greatest machine on silver. Especially if your cherry picking. Any truth to that? I hate to spend an extra $1500 on a 3030 so I can cherry pick. Thanks

IF you want a "silver killer" buy the Fisher F-5 for $299 you cannot beat it :clapping: :yikes:

Same here almost every silver coin I found was on public property using my equinox
 
Founewestd a a bunch of old small silver last year with the 800, newest is 1875. I was hunting through a field that was recently covered by a Nokta. The little ones are less than a gram, and I was hitting them at 5+ inches in a plowed field.

That’s what happened to me.Every machine has its attributes and its shortcomings.But overall,I started with an old bfo,tr , tr disc,vlf all metal,disc..Every one of them was generally an improvement from the predecessor.Not to mention the wonderful people and knowledge I have gained in my near 73 years
 
The nice thing about the nox is you can update it also I dig silver dimes on the flats at the beach 14”+ they’re just a squeak sometimes in one direction but if your not digging those your missing derp silver !

The rubber bumper is for shock when it hits things.Keep clear film handy for changing screen.The machine has a tendency to tip over as its top heavy.
