U.K. Brian said:Seems the guy with the Deus in the video is now selling it and getting the Blisstool. We did a test at the weekend on my buried hoard (I kilo of buried copper and silver coins at three feet) and the Deus with the new large coil couldn't locate it. Admittedly it was raining and the ground was soaked but my old Nautilus could locate it with its ten inch coil (all metal, no discrim. signal).
Unfortunately the guy who was supposed to come with his Blisstool chickened out due to the weather but it will be interesting to see how it does perform when I can get him over.
Yes a friend of mine bought one for that very reason, trouble is he said it's driving him nuts. I told him to try the site not far from us that has produced some eary coin finds, Saxon at least 14 William pennies. ect. Which is a quite site now.People are gradually buying into the Minelab GPX detector concept so they can rework their old sites and pick up individual coins at greater depths. Its really paying off in some cases where they are lacking in fresh productive sites but I find that even with my TDI (which has way less depth) used in the non discriminate mode its hard to justify the lack of ground coverage in a day caused by digging so many extra deep holes.
