    he could have parked all the deposits at a crypto bank, say Celsius Network or FTX, lol

    FTX 😔 i lost 60k …

    but I'm still about to buy manticore, but I also have a hesitation with 900

    I have a 800

    I almost only hunt by ear and on the beach

    obviously I don't see how 2d will help me for my hunts

    however, audio is very important, is the manticore better than 900 in audio?

    And same question for EMI, manticore is superior? 900 is identical to 800 or is it improved?

  3. I haven't read the thread yet, but to answer the op's first question, I'll say no, unfortunately manticore won't do that, neither for tone and probably even less for 2d, since I've seen in the French video he put a coin on the edge in the iron zone..

    I dig about 2000 pulltabs a year on my beaches, that means there are probably tens of thousands of them, and at all depths.

    already, personally when I drink a drink I don't remove the pulltab, so I don't understand those who remove it, the solution would be to prevent the pulltab from being able to be removed from the drink And I hate these people who throw them on the beach, but the Andalusians have the annoying tendency to throw everything on the ground even if there is a trash can less than a meter away...I was even told that some people throw pulltabs in certain places on purpose to piss us off

     

    so I dig a lot of pulltabs in different states and which are all over the gold range, sometimes when I'm tired and tired I leave 13 id sounds on the nox but yet I've already dug several 18k rings at 13 in telling me before "oh again a pulltab" and of course no way to differentiate these rings with a pulltab whether in the ground or in the air

    of course we can wait for the ocean conditions to sort the pulltabs and the gold but it is not frequent, if I waited for these conditions, I would hardly go out to detect

    So I doubt that manticore will help us on this subject

    vive -- I do not know.  I don't recall ever doing that test.  I'll try to remember to drag out my CTX sometime soon, and give it a try.  Does the size of coin, and depth of burial, matter to you?

    Steve

    Let’s say a big conductive copper or nickel coin 

    depth 5 cm , 10cm ,20 cm more or less 

    i know nox give me sometimes ferrous tone on burried edge 1 euro coin on the beach 

    Manticore in the video give good tone but ferrous 2D trace, okay it’s another coin and on land ...

    wonder what happen with ctx feco in this conditions 🤔

     

  5. I'm not familiar with ctx and I have a question:

    what does the visual look like on a coin on the edge?

    because in the video of the french dealer, when he tests the 5ct napoleon buried on the edge, the 2d trace is in the high ferrous (audio good)

    do you think the coins on the edge will still be in the visual ferrous but with a sound of non-ferrous?

    For the depth tests which are in French, to be simple I retain 2 French currencies that you can look on the net to compare them with your currencies:
    -10 cts Napoleon III 10gr in bronze / diameter 30.02 mm detected at 50 cm.
    - 5 Fr gold Napoleon III 1.61gr in gold / diameter from 14.4 mm to 17.7 mm detected at 25 cm.
    What gives me a problem with the test bench is that the Manticore is unstable whereas we have described it as very stable, the seller explains that it is in a disturbed zone, nevertheless I note that the depth is clearly there .
    I tested Equinox 800 in Airtest in all metals:
    - 10 cts Napoleon III he detects it at a maximum of 33 cm. ID 23
    - Celtic gold coin 1.81gr in gold and silver diameter 12 mm detected at 21 cm Maximum. ID 13
    I don't have 5 fr gold but we are about the same weight and size. The purists will tell me you have to compare the same element in the same conditions and I hear them but 50cm and 25 cm on the gold in the video. Similarly I think it is not by chance that Mark Lawrie detects 2 Roman coins, I think there was a desire to do "extraordinary" for this test, because the site was chosen as potential for discovery because 1500-year-old coins are not found everywhere in Europe, it would be too easy, it is said to be 1h30 from Paris.

    I don't quite understand your last paragraph.

    what do you mean ?

    in general in france we choose our fields in relation to certain elements which make us think that there has been passage since roman times, but as the law in this country does not allow to proceed in this way, everyone will say that they go randomly in any field,

    in the video he even says that since they have found 2 roman coins they stop looking in this field... we all know that it is a field that has been hunted again and again for a long time in which they knew that there was still potential for interesting finds.

    there are a lot of Roman coins in France, when I was hunting the land I found a lot of them, I even found some on the beach...

    I am not surprised that mark in digs 2 however

    this does not tell us anything about manticore since the targets found would have been with any detector

  7. still nothing for beach hunting..

    it is of course that the dealers will not point out the negative points, especially this one who has been at war with XP for many years and who cannot sell it,

    he has also bashed D2 in the video several times so according to him mordor is superior to d2 in all respects 😏
