Detector(s) used
Nokta Legend, Garrett AT MAX
Primary Interest:
All Treasure Hunting
I hunt mostly jewelry at parks. The composition of the ground is mostly limestone. The ground balance on my AT max usually runs about 94. I also hunt the beach in Corpus Christi and there is a lot of black sand.

Debating cashing out a bit of crypto and buying a new detector. I'm looking for a combo detector, wireless head set, and pointer. Looking in the $800-$1,200 range.

New Only - Under full manufacturers warranty.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Clive Clynick has a book on the Legend. Clivesgoldpage
 

Now I wait...
 

If you ordered from Bart it should be there any minute. He doesn't mess around.

I'll be watching to see how you like the Legend. I've had my eye on one for a good while now. I can't wait to see if you revisit any spots on what the Garrett may have missed.

It's coming early, today. Excited for tomorrow's hunt. Will keep you posted
 

I think you're going to be happy.
Thank you! It feels real balanced and comfortable. Too bad I'm so freaking tired I have to take a nap before I try to mess much with it because my brain is goo.

Also got the LG24 coil which comes Saturday, and I got the pro pack which basically has the Legend, wireless headphones, a 6 inch coil, extra battery, pointer, digger, finds pouch, carrying case, and baseball hat.
 

Super impressed with the headphones that allow me to answer and make calls. So sick of having to rip my glove off and dig my phone out when when needing to use the phone.
