Minelab Etrac-Notka Legend
Primary Interest:
All Treasure Hunting
I have been using the Legend for the last 4 weeks and I am really liking it. I have found probably 20 wheat pennies and a couple of Buffalo nickels, but no sliver coins. I was starting to believe that there my be a software issue. The Etrac had a problem with where large silver hit on the screen. It was very easy to fix this problem.

Saturday I did not do a morning hunt because of obligations so I decided to hunt a school a couple of miles from home. I have not found anything but clad at this place for the last three years or so. I only go here for clad hunting and quick hunts. My first find was a wheat pennies from 6 inches with a piece of wire in the hole. A couple of clad coins later, I found another wheatie approaching 8 inches deep. I got a very nice 48-50 signal in an area where I had found silver years ago. I saw the rim of what looked like silver from about 8 inches deep and it was a silver roosie. The Lengend hit it hard. Two feet away I found another wheatie. Three wheats and a silver dime in a one hour hunt is a good day for me.

If a person does not want to spend 1000-1500 bucks, this is the detector for you. I have yet to use the 6 inch coil, but is will be hard to take the big coil off and give it a chance. Well done Notka!
 

The six inch coil is great, I definitely suggest giving it a try. Its my go to coil unless i know where I'm hunting isn't very trashy. Nice work on the silver, I'm sure you'll pull a couple more out of there!
 

Great post!

The Nokta LEGEND is a VERY VERY good machine. Especially for the price and the promotions that are going on right now.

I have a feeling that you're going to find a lot more silver. Keep at it!
 

yep just goes to show you things pop up when you least expect them just like your silver dime you just never know what is under the coil until you dig dig dig LOL

good post
