I hope this is not a repost. I get the Minelab newsletter and this came today.

*correction* it was on their Facebook page.

yes it must have been the 48 inch coil..what's this out in the middle of the desert? Were they looking for any sound at all coming to detector that may indicate metal. Something seems a bit fishy to me
 
wait I know he was dowsing for it!


:poke:


haha just kidding guys
 
Yea, when I read the story on the internet I told my son they were full of C
 
awesome find regardless of the depth...

Just for anyone new to the CTX ,no there is not a 48 inch coil available.
 
Wish they would have included more info, like, if they dug down 5 feet first then the detector picked it up? At 6 feet I would be amazed any signal at all got through, or possibly were they also using another detector like one that uses other technology, sorry but at the moment I cant think of what its called but typically gold and beach hunters use them and dig all because it don't discriminate...bate it when this happens LOL. Pulse Induction, that's it! Whew.
 
I have detected in different places in Mexico and I have dug up large relics at about 3-4 feet with inferior detectors. I found what looked like a large 2ft by 2ft wheel blender blade looking piece I attribute the depth reading capability to HOW LONG the target has been underground and soil type. Just like how nice the corroded pennies sound here in the US, I have pulled those buggers out of the sand at 12-15 inches here in cali. Thats just my 2 "corroded" cents on this story. I believe it.

2 feet I can't believe 4 feet, maybe if there was a large piece and I mean large piece of iron possibly maybe but I would still have my doubts, 6 feet no way unless maybe they were digging up an army tank.
 
Whoops in my last post I meant to say
two feet I can believe.
 
After 2 feet of digging, I would of thought it was a Soda can.
