Can't answer your specific question Simon but Fisher detectors in NZ are a lot cheaper than Australia. The Gold Bug 2 combo is nearly $500 kiwi dollars cheaper. Can I ask where you might be purchasing Fisher stuff from (I'm guessing DredgeNZ ?) Just as a side note....the Excalibur is also quite a bit cheaper in NZ than Australia. ......grab the 14" coil....should ping a bigger nugget at depth. Tony

Whiteās TDI Battery Modifications

.......and tiny dobs of flux works wonder with solder flow and good electrical joint contact. Finish with a light spray of isopropyl alcohol to clean the area. -
Thank you Oceandog.......and welcome to the forum !!

If only the non-ferrous tone wasn't so high pitched......

A quick Google search has the British and Australian Sovereign coins near enough identical in size and composition.

Please update if possible....thanks. Maybe the UK and Australian sovereigns are similar.

I don't mind digging pull-tabs.......so long as every other target is a gold coin š

Don't tell me you had some laying around somewhere.....š

Hello Manticore experts......anyone care to guess where these Australian gold coins might show up on the Manticore ID. The modern half-sovereign include a diameter of 19.30 mm and a thickness of 0.99mm. On the other hand, the full sovereign has a diameter of 22.05 mm and a thickness of 1.52 mm. The half-sovereign, weighing 3.99 g, is around half that of the full sovereign, which weighs 7.98 g.dimensions and are both 22K gold. Thanks for any guesstimations !!

Sakobs Gc-1078 Metal Detector Review & Testing
Tony replied to SAKOBS Jolin's topic in Metal Detector Advice & Comparisons
With all due respectā¦ā¦eBay and the like are flooded with $50 metal detectors and probably donāt need anymore. Iām sorry I canāt be more constructive than that. -
Is that relative to local EMI or by maxing it outā¦.

I was expecting a much worse reactionā¦ā¦Defibrillator and 000. Thanks for all the info from your postā¦.I hope to get a response from Reeds Prospecting if they want my businessš

Can someone enlighten me on why there is no love for the humble 9v battery. The physical form factor relative to 6 x 1.5 AA batteries is surely an advantage. I can get a 4 pack of Duracell 9v for a reasonable price. Is it a short run for the 9v?

Iām trying to get one ābundledā with the Manticoreā¦..offering a āfreeā Pro-Find 35 as part of the current promotion here in Australia. With the Aussie āpesoā dropping like crazy, I canāt see myself buying anything from overseas for a while. FYIā¦..I currently have no pin-pointer whatsoever. Waiting for Simons reaction on that š

I saw a Polish website where the Sphinx 02 is available to purchase. Iām not sure of the differences between the two models.

Oooopsā¦..now Minelab will charge you for the āCall Forwardingā feature š³

If I do melt the MasterCard on the Manticore then the first thing Iāll do is probably set the sensitivity somewhere around 15-20 and then go from there.

Good post, thanks. The MX7 always surprises me with its performance, not perfect by any means but a very likeable detectorā¦ā¦.Iāve got one eye on the Manticore and the other eye on my credit card balance so weāll see how things go. (Sorry slightly off topic in this Minelab forum but drop the MX7 sensitivity back a bit and it will settle down with very little loss in performance)
