SUPER ROMAN GOLD COIN HOARD FOUND IN UK

Howdy Folks,
Just saw this today on ABC News:
Some REALLY lucky newbie in England bought......to borrow the article's phrase,a "basic detector" ; then went out to a farmer's field and found one the largest caches of 4th century Roman gold coins ever found.
Something like over a 100 (?) coins were eventually located:yikes:.
The article didn't say what brand detector he was using; just that it was "basic".
Does that mean like, Radio Shack basic ??????
Regardless, talk about beginner's luck!! it would make anybody numb to see all that gold come out of the ground !!
 
yes i was wondering too..they never say what detector they used to find the treasure. I saw pictures also ....it was a large mass of coins...meaby with a 1x1 coil and a PI detector?...No way Radio Shack basic...my first detector was a radio shack 150 usd BFO detector... that does not even detect a coin at 2 inches in ground. its most probably a PI detector with a large frame...
this was a huge find...

Regards
