I cannot find characteristics of this metal detector. Ill probably buy it but Im not sure if it has a considerable depth.
Could it find gold nuggets?
Thanks.

Yes It has very good depth. And It's a very good coin hunting detector that works well for prospecting. It was a good all around machine.
If your just beginning detecting, it would be a nice choice and will serve you well. Just learn it well and it will make a lot of nice finds for you. HH

Hello, I have my Eagle Spectrum for 13 years now. I purchased it way back in 1993 when I started detecting, and it was the best choice that I could have made. It was White's top-of-the-line machine in the early 90's until the XLT came out in 1994.

Some Eagle Spectrum users will say it is the best White's machine ever made, and I have to agree. I use mine all the time, I'll never switch unless I can see for myself that something is better than the White's Eagle Spectrum. It gets great depth if you program it properly. I have gotten as much depth as 12 inches on large cents and pulled a 1773 Spanish real at 12 inches from hard packed soil.

White's don't make them anymore, however you can pick one up reasonable, they usually go for approx. $300 used, 400 tops in MINT condition.
Any questions, I'd be glad to help. I have all the manuals, and 2 books specifically for the Eagle Spectrum with custom programs, so ask away. Good luck...............Rich

Considering it's said to be even better than the White's Eagle II SL, which itself was one of the best detectors ever made (yes, I'm a little biased because I have one :-P ), I'd say get a Spectrum if you can find it.

I was thinking of buying one when I thought my EIISL was dead, but they're kind of hard to find, and now the SL seems to work OK.
