 You made a good point of having that extra detector. My trouble when I started detecting I couldn't afford another one. In 66 I think I had to pay about 160.00 for A White's BFO. Before that I made one from a kit. It worked but not to the point I'd say great. I did find coins with it. That BFO was like stepping into new world. I was like Buck Rogers with it.haha

swing low and slow

I too started out witha Whites BFO Gold Master and it left a lot to be desired when compared to my buddies fisher T 10. KMVs. Little monster was just as good as the Gold Maaster, IMO.

A gold pan.

What difference does it make, few nugget are the exact same weight and shape and orientation. Just dig it

You compared the cost of the Deus coil to a Garrett ATPro, I compared the cost of ML coils to Deus coil.

Minelab, Coiltec, and Nugget finder charges a bundle for thier coils and all the have in them is wire.  

I,ve never found any placer gold below 5000 ft . In Colorado.

. 

The. Larger nuggets come from the head piles. I used to find lots of nuggets in the old winnoning piles, they lost morre gold than the dry washers.

I no longer care.

I would rather dig iron than spend a bundle for a expensive discriminating detector that dint go deeperthan the existing ones. Where l nugget hunt l don't find much iron.

Tried one when they first came out, did not care for it, liked my GB 2 better.

Thanx Steve.

Thanx Steve, l was wondering about the 5 1/2 x 9.

Can someone tell me who makes the Jimmy coils for JS? Thanx

I think it stands for Dupped.

Its a mint mark. Denver

What is the difference between the Fors gold and the Fors Gold + ?

What if the pinpointer is wireless and links into the headphones, how great would that be? Just speculating possible.

I read somewhere tha it was wireless and audioed thru the phones. Hope its super sensitive.

Steve, do you want to sell the 5 x9 Razor back coil?

Found all of them with GB2 and GB Pro.

Years ago l found nice gold below the mine in Kanaka creek

Maybe you could have locked the wheels on the cart and made a sled and slid it down.

My 2nd detector back in 1963 was the same as the 3rd from the left, top row, I believe it was called a Gold Master. The only gold I ever found with it was a gold ring in the Denver City park. Those BFOs were not very deep and the batteries were kinda spendy. Found lots of shallow coins tho.

That must be one that I missed. LOL

I have a GB2 a GBP Pro a GMT an F75 and a Deus, don't think I need another VLF nugget hunter. Since I am not familiar with the Fors I was just wondering.

I agree the GB2 is the best for small,small, gold, but not as deep on larger pieces.:-)

I have a GB 2, a GB Pro a GMT an F 75 and a Deus so I don't think I need another Vlf detector for nugget hunting. I an not familiar with the Fors, was just wondering.
