Iron Iron and More Iron - Manticore and The M8 Coil, Will it Work in Iron?

I had the pleasure of hunting with my friends from Fort Bedford Metal Detectors at a permission that is probably "the" hardest place I've ever hunting. The site is LOADED with iron but we wanted to give the new Manticore M8 search coil a test to see what it could do. With the assistance of the Stabiliser and Stabiliser filter, I was able to pluck out some relics and coins from the iron. It was a great day and a lot of fun.

Great name of the channel! :) Today, we found out about your channel, and there are real beauties in your finds! Big salute from southern Europe from heavy metal couple :)

[@MentalMetal]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@brokenarrowoutdoors2467]

Can’t wait for my M8 coil to come in from FB. I’ve got two old farm houses that are no longer there but so much stuff in the ground it’s hard to pick out good signals with 11” coil. At one sight I’ve already got 7 large cents a half reale and cartwheel penny.

[@MentalMetal]

Good luck!

[@brokenarrowoutdoors2467]

Over the weekend I finally got to use the m8 coil at a place I pounded with 11” coil. I found a large cent IHC and about 15 more buttons. I couldn’t believe it! I’m only talking an old homestead in a corn field that’s gone In an area maybe 80x80 yards. I’m going re hit all my old spots with it

[@ohiofredl]

Nice vid nice hunt nice finds freezing in ohio thanks for posting.

[@MentalMetal]

Thanks for watching!

[@mikesmith5638]

Great video, I've got the Manticore as well. How does the M8 coil compare in depth with the M11?

[@MentalMetal]

The M11 has more depth but the M8's strengths is added separation but I can still hit a 10" silver dime with the M8 so you don't lose that much depth.

[@jomon723]

Nice hunt, I just want to know when I can get a M8 coil for the Manticore, Most of my old hunts are in Jungle growth with lots of rocks and roots. Never thought I would have to wait this long :( I do have my Legend and a 900 on they way with the small coiltek See you on Zoom i hope

[@MentalMetal]

They are taking a while to come in. Not sure why its taking too long.

[@ChrissyEis]

That’s great eagle buttons are they civil war are ww1 or 2

[@MentalMetal]

This one is CW era. Thank you.

I've got a relic program that I've developed for the legend that works great and high mineralization and high iron content I would love to see it perform here.

[@MentalMetal]

Share it and I'll run it the next time I'm down there.

@@MentalMetal I got the idea from the beach to land program with the nox in my testing the beach program has shown great results and high iron and mineralization I think it's due to the algorithm to negate mineralization and black sand. It translates well to relic sites

[@MentalMetal]

Thanks I wrote it down, and if things thaw out I'll def give this a try. Thanks again!

[@delcodetecting]

Great video as always, I one question what brand of pouch do you use, looking for a new one

[@MentalMetal]

Thanks! One of my Patreon members had it made for me. It came from a company called Rat Tactical. rattactical.mybigcommerce.com/

[@ChrissyEis]

Legend is bad ass I don’t think anyone can beat my 18 k pocket watch are my civil war metal volunteer metal that was given to soldiers after they completed your service and went back and volunteer and went back Civil War incredible fine lines from Ohio every state, 2018 65

[@MentalMetal]

Those a cool finds indeed. Congrats!

[@xxLIBERTYorDETHxx]

I haven't broke the bank on a Manticore yet. Anyone wanna say what a Trime comes up as? My Nox 600 Screams 16 on the VDI with a Trime.

[@JD1983]

Do you carry the m8 at your shop?

[@MentalMetal]

I don't sell detectors, I carry stuff in my Amazon Store but to get the M8 I would reach out to Fort BedFord Metal Detectors. If they don't have them they will put you on their list and won't take your money until it comes in.

[@davidlewis3138]

what brand Diggin pouch are you using?

[@MentalMetal]

One of my Patreon members had it made for me. It came from a company called Rat Tactical. rattactical.mybigcommerce.com/

[@JJ-qi9zn]

Wher can you get the bottom shaft for the manticore?

[@OCBeepDigger]

I bought one from Steve's Detector Rods. Indistinguishable from a Minelab OEM shaft... and Steve is an absolutely GREAT guy! You can google it up to find his website.

[@treasurefinder66]

Steve's detector shafts.

[@tedyoh7394]

1st off, I'd like to say Thanks for removing my ban from commenting on your videos....2nd, you better be digging everything over 10 on that site, proof in the pudding on that Eagle button reading 30.....great finds, i never dug a V nickle in that good of shape

[@MentalMetal]

I would never ban the #1 fan!

[@ChrissyEis]

If you want the good stuff you must deal with with the junk at one confederate site I dug more then 20 horse shoes your probably thinking why did I dig so much iron after I found a Colt civil war pistol I had to lol

[@MentalMetal]

At a CW site you have to dig everything :-)
