Tesoro Golden Umax

[Davide]

I have had my Golden uMax for years and only used it lightly as I have other detectors as well.  Anyway I have recently been able to get back to detecting due to some improvements  in my health.  I finally have had time to appreciate the notch settings on this machine.  Nickels no longer hide from me.  It is just like a new machine and I have noticed that you can't hardly even find used ones for sale.  I think I will be hanging on to this detector for sure!

You have a concentric coil on it? Tesoros really shine in iron infested areas with the concentrics.

Hi Kac.  I have the concentric coil, 8 by 9 I think.

Davide, have a couple of questions about your discrimination. Do your pulltabs disc. out Before or after the nickels?

I have a New tone Golden uMax I love. I use the 8" Brown donut and 5.75' concentric coils as they get good depth with these. I am mostly coin hunter and it found me couple nice Silver halfs and a Barber Quarter even My Etrac missed believe it or not. Tesoro's just seem to find what others miss some how.

Keeping mine also, its light and turn on and go detector.

Pull tabs always above nickels. I get tripped up on half pull tabs (ones cut by mowers) as they usually come in really close to nickels or sometimes just under.
