It looks for boring into wood.

You do good finding places. Great relic hunt.

A crazy hunt. Cool finds. Nice silver to save the day! And then snow. lol

It looks like a spear point. Maybe something for farming. Cool find.

My ground is so mild. I can't talk myself into a Manticore or Deus 2. I just don't think they can gain that much more over what I have. I don't think smf gives me much of an advantage in my mild ground. My detectors are hitting a dime at 10"+ and a gold ring in the sand 14"+. The Legend, Orx, Tejon & gold detectors all have incredible separation in iron. A Sovereign XS2 I had with a 7 1/4" coil (called an 8" coil), I dug IH's at 11" with it using a hand digger.

We are all have vlf's, PI's & Tarsacci technology. My detectors are all vlf's with not a lot difference in them. So what advantage would I have with a Manticore or Deus 2. 

My Detectors:  Legend w/3 coils, Xp Orx, Tejon, Gold Kruzer, Gold Racer, AT Gold

Do you have any reason to keep the Manticore when you have the Deus 2? It just seems Minelab didn't get the Manticore quite right. I doubt they will change things on the Manticore.

Nice relic hunt, memories and history. I enjoyed scrolling thru your photos.

I like that square nail or whatever it is. It looks like it could be brass.

Nice design on the ring. I like it. Great hunt.

Great comparison hunt. I wish Minelab hadn't made the Manticore like the Equinox. I loved the Equinox in the water but wasn't a fan of it relic hunting. I would like to see a wired Deus 2 also.

Nice, that has to be incredible finding a meteorite.

Nice relics. Nice to be able to get out. Looks like you are really enjoying that Deus 2.

It was nice to get out detecting. I'll bet you had fun.

Good to hear the Manticore is working well for you.

Yes, cool find!

Wow, that's the way to start. Impressive gold.

That's cool having it graded and in a case.

I like the tone of it.

Great photos and memories.

I'm sorry for Toby too. I believe our pets will be in heaven with us.

Nice find Kac. To bad it wasn't all platinum and very nice diamond. Still a great find.

That's incredible. That would be overwhelming to see digging it up. I wonder what it will be valued at.

Incredible relic and finds. The LC is great condition.

Incredible finds.

That would make you nervous detecting. I would have a hard time going detecting where there could be live bombs and mines. I don't think I could do it.
