I put up a new Legend video on my youtube channel, I found some coins that my other detectors overlooked. The coins weren't that deep, I think they were on edge.

F19 is fun and easy to use, we just had the little yearly county fair in the park close to my house and the day after it was over I took my F19 with a Mars Tiger coil attached to it and vacuumed up all the fresh drops, I only got a little over 3 bucks in change plus a cheapie bracelet and an ear ring but it was a lot of fun because I didn't have to wear headphones or dig any holes. It was a

Yes I agree with Keith, the Patriot is great in the iron and when you get into more open areas it will get awesome depth, and it doesn't suffer from EMI very much in my experience with it. One of my favorites.

I hope it is ready to release without a bunch of glitches and bugs to work out and reprogram. I hope it will be well tested before it is sold to the public.

Have you compared the depth of the 2 coils yet? Also how much difference in recovery speed and separation is there between the 2? I may have missed those video's if you already did them. 6 inch vs 11 inch

WOW Great review, I got one coming to me this week that has been updated to version 1.09, after reading this review I am glad I pulled the trigger. I am mainly a coin hunter in the parks so it sounds like it is right up my alley.

I guess the hot dry days of summer are more conducive to finding older coins, this bares out for me as both walking liberty halves I have found were during the dry spells in the summer in spots that had been gone over many many times. Both were found with minelab explorers by the way.

Got out in an iron infested spot and ran the Deus 2 in the fast mode using the stock settings, found some relics including a button I couldn't identify. Also found a nice IHP.

I like the legend as well, can't go wrong with either one in my opinion, I borrowed a Legend to make a video and it did very well in my hunted out park so at some point I will get myself a Legend too.

Thanks, I do believe the Deus 2 is better than the first Deus, I have been out with it every day since I got it and trying out the different modes, I still have a lot left to learn about it but I think it is one of the best detectors I have ever used and I have used a

Paystreak might be a marketing genius, he has us talking about him, I have heard it said that there is no such thing as bad press if you want to be famous. Just ask Calabash.

Just watched Quarter Hoarder explain all the settings on the Legend and saw that the Legend does indeed have ground tracking option, there goes my theory on why I had to lift the coil, hopefully version 1.07 will get rid of the last of the bugs.

Just did a hunt with the Legend, I found some old coins including silver, Woodbutcher lent me his machine to try out in my hunted out park and it did well. Would the Nox have found the same targets? probably. I did have to raise the coil to get a better response on some of the targets and some I didn't, In my opinion I think the Legend is hyper sensitive to ground changes and that might be w

Hard to narrow it down to just one detector, all of my detectors have things I like about each one. I like using the older units and the newer tech ones, I guess that is why I have 10 of them hanging on my wall much to my wife's chagrin.

I just snagged a nice 1235X that popped up on Feebay, It has three coils with it, 4", 8" and 10 1/2 " , you don't see them come up for sale much anymore. I really loved the 1236X-2 I had, it made a lovely sound when it got over a deep high conductor. Happy to get it. It looks like it is in pristine condition.
