F19 - G2+ - Time Ranger Pro are all identical. Only the faceplate and grips are different - and branding (for MAP price structuring). F11-22-44 are not made for prospecting being 7.7kHz.

First, love your reviews. Thank you. Second, I would like your advice. I have two main goals, meteorites and gold. Looking at the Fisher Gold Bug, Gold Bug Pro, Gold Bug ll and F75. Which do you suggest for my purposes? Right now I am torn between the pro and ll. Thanks, Mark
@thehuntergt4 жыл бұрын
Thanks Mark, I appreciate you enjoying the videos. The Gold Bug 2...in my opinion...is best suited to a mineshaft and extremely tiny deposits in washes. Newer tech like the Gold Kruzer - AU Gold Finder - Gold Monster are much better suited in my opinion for open field (deeper) placer deposits. For meteorites, most detectors will hit the iron type...it is the stony type meteors that will be hard or next to impossible to hit. The Gold Bug Pro would be better suited there as it has a much better iron response than the GB2. The Pro will hit birdshot easily...so only get the GB2 if smaller than birdshot is the goal.

Cuts through trash like butter and gets a good 6-7 inches on a quarter in medium soil. We plan on getting her a larger coil soon so she has a bit more depth for open fields and parks.

Coin shooters want depth and solid ID. Deep silver being the target...not shallow clad. The machines that do that usually cost a pretty penny. The CTX3030 is over $2000 and many consider the best coin shooter on the market. Others favor the F75 LTD platform on coins...it was $1200 at one point. I like the GB2 for smaller gold....but the newer 19khz machines like the Gold Bug and G2 and F19 will absolutely go deeper on a larger nugget. They are no slouch on the small stuff either hitting half a gram with no problem. You have a very sensitive detector in your hands that doubles as a great relic and coin hunter too. Something the GB2 does not double as.

You are right you could not pay for the machine with 400 quarters - you would need 1200 quarters - as this is a $400 detector (at time of video). Are you asking if it hits gold?
