Hard to believe that the CTX has been out for a decade now.
10 years is a loooooong time, in the electronic technology arena.
Minelab probably has a few new tricks up their sleeve that do not fit in the Manticore's price point.
1. Completely new technology.

We dont know how deep the musket balls were buried, in the video.
All we know is one was buried, one was buried deep, and 1 was...
Love the patina!
At the 10 minute mark in the video, a gentleman just about won the bid, and purchased a Studebaker accidently!
Studebakers were a interesting part of American history.
Thanks for sharing!
The French to English translation of the video above, comparing the Deus 2 to the Manticore is very telling.
I watched the video a few times, and in some cases, I believe they gave the Deus 2 a slight edge.
Yet the Manticore still won all 13 of the depth and seperation test.
Im looking...
