To me the Manticore learning curve reminds me of when I first used the explorer years ago, I feel you gotta put in the time understanding what the machine is doing. I almost gave up on the explorer back then but forced myself to learn its language and I’m glad I did. The manticore reminds me of that time and the more I run the manticore the more I’m learning it’s language. To me it’s like a super fast, deeper and more sensitive explorer in a way. Once it all clicks you can’t put it down you want to get out swinging. Can’t wait for the accessory coils to be available. Thanks John

Had a couple hours to get out last Friday with manticore, was running beach deep sens 24 recovery speed 4. Ring is 8.6 grams of 20k tested on xrf gun id was 52-53. Bracelet was gold filled. Ring was about 10-12” deep on towel line and gave a great clear signal. Loving the manti. Thanks John

Thanks everyone I’m still shocked I found a gold coin! We went back to same field before crops got planted and another friend dug a full gold sovereign with his manticore it rang up a 47 and I got a 1799 1/2 reale. Farmer said when crops are done we can detect all the fields. We can’t wait to get back there as soon as we can. Thanks John

Good luck everyone. Thanks John

Anyone know if the ML-85 will work on the Manticore? I’m getting bad wind noise from ML-105. Thanks John
