Iām a relative newbie to metal detecting. Iāve spent the last year using an AT-Pro and a Deus (11ā coil). Iāve had some luck but limited success digging up silver coins from locations that have been hit hard by detectors. Iāve recently read accounts of detectorists using the Minelab CTX with big coils and digging deep silver coins. They report this being relatively easy with the coins āsounding goodā and the CTX providing reliable VDIās.
Iāve dug some deep silver with the Deus but the VDI hasnāt been helpful and the sound is faint and hard for me to recognize. Iāve dug them from relatively clean sites where I expected deeper silver. Iāve had no luck digging deeper coins in trashy areas/public parks.
Iām thinking of buying a CTX. Any thoughts from more experienced users
