Minelab Manticore M8 coil relic hunting in heavy iron.

Heavy iron hunting with the M8 coil..

[@diggindarrell]

I had to lower the sensitivity down to 18 and started finding bullets instead of nails.

[@calabashdiggeradventures]

19 is where I ended up

[@BlastedKat]

Impressive run with the M8.

[@beachclub11]

You are a Great Instructor as well as Influencer.. Thanks Bro ⭐🇱🇷

[@calabashdiggeradventures]

Thank You!

[@treasurefinder66]

Cant wait to get one. The manticore is a badass machine. It has found me silver and lots of it in spots i thought was hunted near empty. There is a slight difference in tone between the nails and good targets. Nails seem forced to me. Great video.

[@finders-keepers1518]

Yep. I agree totally. Just takes time to get an ear for the machine but once you do look out. It's an animal.

[@calabashdiggeradventures]

Thanks!

[@GaryandtheGooseDetecting]

Wow thats pretty impressive have watched you hunt that site alot ,thanks CD

[@NCRelicHunter223]

That is pretty impressive! Two coins out of there. 😮

[@calabashdiggeradventures]

I think so too!

[@davidfrazier1186]

M8 is doing good.

[@BiGGDiGG624]

Good to see it pulled some coins Calabash. Your onto it. That coil is its own special little beast. You just got to get it set for different layers. I think youll pull something very special with it 😉 Good luck, great vid 👍

[@calabashdiggeradventures]

Thanks 👍

(not so patiently) waiting for my M8.

[@calabashdiggeradventures]

this one came from down under..

[@2cr4d5at1]

Very nice! I’ve watched you hunt that site for a long time. I hunt sites like that and just got my Manticore and tried it out over the weekend. Definitely have to watch running too hot on sensitivity. I got down around 18-20 and started finding good targets. At first I was running around 26 sens and was horrible in the iron. After lowering I pulled a Silver Thimble, .69 cal 3-ringer, buckle, several wheaties, and bits of copper and brass pieces. After watching your video I think I need to raise my stabilizer from zero to at least 2 starting out. I had my upper ferrous on 10 which was helping on the falsing. I’ll try your settings (with stock coil).

[@calabashdiggeradventures]

I got it settled around 19..

[@ChrisE1129]

Awesome video!

[@arthurschwarz3359]

I just wish you could do a tone break in pitch tones , like you can on the legend,

[@CommonGuy]

For us new users of the manticore it would be good to show your screen while changing the setting.

[@brotherskeepers111]

Can't wait to get the M8 coil for my Manticore

[@goldendredger]

Bent nails are my nemesis! Beating my head against the wall digging bent nails. They will be rusty with a head still on both square and round nails at big depth. And every one of them are bent in the middle close to a 90 degree angle. I cannot seem to tune them out. Although I am starting to sort out the Tid on the bent nails and the sound they are making. Starting to pretty much call them now. Which means soon I might have confidence on when to skip these nails. Gonna take some time though.

[@calabashdiggeradventures]

It will hit on them..

[@ohiofredl]

Very interesting hunt like see more.Coil looks like it mzy make the grade.Thanks for vid nice finds.

[@calabashdiggeradventures]

You bet

[@zerxkydc532]

Calabash Can you try to get your hands on Quest V80 ? Been wondering about that machine... Would be cool to see you guys test that one out !!

[@jerrydineen2827]

That place is a work out for a new detector or a new coil. Good hunt!!

[@mase202]

Awesome video! Can you please recommend a pin pointer . I just bought a manticore and my pulse dive pin pointer goes crazy next to the manticore i assume because its pulse induction pin pointer. Hope you help me out thanks

[@calabashdiggeradventures]

I use a Xp Pinpointer under water but I have a Nokta Pinpointer with a screen for land..

[@charlieschemmel122]

Nice thanks for sharing!!!!

[@calabashdiggeradventures]

You bet

[@DiggingHoles99]

Hey calabash I enjoy your videos...at this siter have you ever thought about clearing a 10'x10' area..and digging out maybe the first 4 or 5 inches and then detect it? And then after that keep on digging down...love the videos

[@calabashdiggeradventures]

Yes I have might be doing that very soon.

[@englandshistory]

The more you use the manti the easier ot is to tell the slight differences it tones... iron falsing will be clipped and broken signals but it will just lock on to good targets... yes you can still chase the iffy signals for the trickiest of co mingled targets but you don't seem to have to chase them as much as you do with other machines.... that m8 coil has amazing unmasking capabilities... Good vid cala

[@calabashdiggeradventures]

I got it dialed in now... Learned a lot about the behavior of it today!

[@DeanicussMT10]

Do you rate the Manticore over the Deus 2 now?

[@SilverSeth86]

Minelab needs to up production of the M8 and M15 coils ASAP.

[@calabashdiggeradventures]

True!

[@mmb2199]

Very good vid👍 don't be afraid to lower the sense on that kind of sites, and the keyword all terrain General 😊

[@calabashdiggeradventures]

Thanks, will do!

[@aurum7939]

The new elliptical coil that will be released by Coiltek will be even better

[@calabashdiggeradventures]

maybe..

@@calabashdiggeradventures not maybe...I saw it

[@calabashdiggeradventures]

Please explain..

[@aurum7939]

@@calabashdiggeradventures ask all your youtube friends that have all kind of advices when it comes to find gold. But all I see is chit chat. Too much time testing and too little in filling the pouch with 2 lbs of gold.

[@calabashdiggeradventures]

I see just your opinion no actual facts!

[@CommonGuy]

Is that a p-cord I see?😊😊😊

Yep!
