Since switching to Minelab last year when I purchased an equinox 800 from Joan Allen I have not looked back. It’s been quite a steep learning curve but the results are now beginning to show with some nice finds since harvest including many hammered silver coins and a few bits of gold too. The latest finds include a Cunobelin classic gold quarter stater from a roughly ploughed field that had not produced anything prior to the medieval period previously. This was followed a few days later on my next dig at a different location when I found a Coenwulf silver penny. The multi frequency technology really is a game changer. I have been using the 15 inch coil for a few weeks now and it is surprisingly sensitive to very small targets. I am looking forward to getting on some of my old permission sites over the next few weeks.
