Nice finds. Do you use the Deus in the freshwater or stick with the Excalibur for salt and fresh?

Looks like a good day to me congrats on your finds
Thanks Art, any silver makes me happy, gold really makes me happy!

Nice finds. Do you use the Deus in the freshwater or stick with the Excalibur for salt and fresh?
Thanks
I was using the Deus today I knew the area I was going to hunt is riddled with iron and slag, lots of slag from an old iron furnish. I could just barely hear these silvers in-between the iron. I was working very slow. I have been through this area at least 12 times with three different machines. I wouldn't even try the Deus in salt water, just because the excalibur would hunt circles around it. They are talking about an upgrade this coming Sept for the Deus. The way I understand it there will be a new DD coil but there coils are pretty expensive. We'll see the upgrade will be available to all XP Deus owners, just have to upload it free on the net. I have used it down the shore in the winter when I'm not in the water, it struggles in the wet hard pack. Everywhere else I love the wireless features and the lightness of the Deus.

Nice hand full of finds - (like the Mercs) - anyway thanks for sharing your post & I wish you many more great finds.

Thanks Ed

Sweet finds TH, congrats on the rescue of two submerged silver sweethearts. If I tried to take my ATPro, which has more holes in it than a block of Swiss cheese, into the water, I would have to drag the bottom for its recovery...(but hey it still finds stuff on land.) Sub 8-)
