D&P-OR Posted March 28, 2024 Share Posted March 28, 2024 IYO----Which one is the most effective gold (nugget) hunter----the Manticore with 5X8" coil or the Equinox 900 with 6" coil?

phrunt Posted March 28, 2024 Share Posted March 28, 2024 I doubt many have bought both to know, so based upon the 800 with 6" vs the Manticore with m8 coil, I'd say the Manticore once the new firmware is installed on it. The 6" coil I still think has the edge on the very tiniest pieces of gold, we are talking 0.00X of a gram stuff, aside from that the Manticore has the most change of punching deeper getting the bigger bits. 1 Link to comment https://www.detectorprospector.com/topic/25864-detectors-coils-question/#findComment-272881 Share on other sites More sharing options...
