NOKTA/MAKRO LEGEND THE REAL TEST, METAL DETECTING

A real hard test for the nokta legend, is it any good?? MAKE SURE YOU WATCH THE FULL VIDEO, HAMMERED COINS, ROMAN COINS AND ARTEFACTS... HOW DID IT COPE!!

[@kilner79]

just doing some reserch on machines and this video is confirming tests done by a recent youtubers videos that has caused a stir with the americans again thanks for everything you do

[@Happidave73]

Very impressive machine 👍 really was tricky conditions on the pasture yesterday & thanks again for the ID on my broken annular brooch

[@willyekk8707]

Hi Sid. I never comment on Vids but had to on this one. Just got a field exactly the same as this. Been hitting it with the Nox for a couple of weeks and it’s really hard going. Constant iron Buzz and a Butt Ton of false signals. I was starting to doubt myself and the machine but you’ve shown me I’ve been doing everything right. You’ve made me feel so much better about my technique. Use your ears and take a punt on the iffy signals is the key. My Legend should be here next week. Can’t wait to get out with it. Thank you for cheering up a jaded old treasure Hunter lol

[@donsmith2267]

I am loving my Legend, brother enjoying your videos someone that actually shows what the legend can do instead of setting it up to fail as we say in the US good job your KZbin channel is one of my favorites

[@englandshistory]

I just show it how it is and bone biased.. unlike some that just want to make any other brand that they don’t use look bad 🤦‍♂️ not everyone can afford £1400 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

Love watching your vids, you seem to have a great positive vibe… plus plenty of knowledgeable comments and suggestions on settings Love it

Fantastic video sid The legend is doing the buissness nokta makro have done it again Thanks for sharing sid

[@carolinepearson8095]

Hi Sid - Great video thanks -Legend arriving today. I have the standard simplex currently and must say im hoping I can get to grips with the different settings as sounds more complex. Hoping it will all become clear when I take a look in the flesh but please keep the videos coming, particularly on the different settings :-)

[@TheRandomdetectorist]

Nokta Makro legend is a great machine, had mine on field mode, sensitivity 20 and recovery 6, picked up 7 Romans.

[@tomwharton9454]

Been looking to upgrade from the Vanquish 540, which I do like but I want a more versatile detector. I have narrowed it down to three. The Legend, Equinox 800 and the XP Deus II. Any thoughts?

[@treasurehuntingscotlandmud9340]

Good finds keep digging and find those goodies

[@modelbass]

Hey Sid! Great Vid! Just ordered mine be here tomorrow! Whats in the spray bottle just water? Thanks Sid!

[@robbalcomb8955]

Great video Sid, thanks 🙏 it’s Tuesday 29th March 2022 @ “09:30” I sit in my front room awaiting delivery of my Legend and I’m off to my groups dig on Wednesday on high mineralised soil can you recommend the best settings and to use the 11’ stock coil or the 6’ snipper coil? This chance you reading before tomorrow are slim, but be grateful to have some settings to practice with. I still have my Simplex and will keep as back up or until my grandson ready for it he’s 9 and using the go find 44 when out with me. Thanks again for your enjoyable videos m8 have fun stay safe

What a name for this machine at entry an level multi frequency ...that's bold

[@felixperez3432]

I really like my Legends. It is a great machine.

[@jamiegarman6638]

Good video looking at legend as upgrade to vanquish 440..... It seems a bargain as zeus deus 2 and nox 900 a bit out of my price range. 👍

[@Vercingetorix58v.]

Hello, my English is very bad, so unfortunately I don't understand much of what you speak in your videos. Since you have already extensively tested the Deus 2 with the Nokta Makro Legend in comparison, can you please tell me which of the two detectors you find better? I might want to buy the Deus 2, but if the Nokta Makro Legend is better I'll consider it, there's a few bucks difference between the two. I've been hunting with the Deus 1 for 10 years and as a second detector I still have the Nokta Makro Simplex because it's waterproof compared to the Deus 1, I'm satisfied with both detectors so far, but the multi-frequency appeals to me and now I'm standing Given the choice, Deus 2 or the Legend, how would you choose in my place? If you could already answer me translated into German that would be great as it doesn't work well here on KZbin. Greetings from Germany

[@JAPOWEN]

Sid another cracking video mate. Just a quick one mate, are the numbers on targets similar to the Nox? Great finds buddy.

[@englandshistory]

No the target id scale is different all together

[@hindolian]

I had 2 lovely Romans yesterday with my legend in norfolk

[@shawncaldwell593]

Question I have simplex and equinox 600. And am interested in another detector. I know the legend is a lower price point but leaning towards a a deus or deus 2. Thinking about the deus 1. Someone said the legend is about the same as a equinox. What’s your opinion. And also is the deus 2 a huge difference from the 1. Any help would be great. Might just flip a coin to decide

[@englandshistory]

Deus ii is the best out of them overall at the minute… i would prefer the legend over deus i and there is only slight advantages and disadvantages between all these machines, they all have good and bad points…. I loved my nox and would still be happy to use it any time but id have to say it would be a choice between legend and deus ii if i was looking at buying… legends cheapest at £679 and great performance and solid build, deus ii is most expensive at £1350 but it is the best over all and the nox is mid priced but the poor build quality lets it down at £949.. Not slagging any machine they all perform brilliant but value for money is king…

[@kens.1637]

Great video Sid! Do you notice any loss in depth having the recovery set at 7?

[@englandshistory]

Yes the higher the recovery the more you loose, but that’s how it works with all machines, but when conditions are like in video you will never be able to punch deep amongst heavily contaminated soil… less depth is needed as a faster search is way more important

[@olliethegas]

Have just bought The legend yesterday, not used it yet but REALLY looking forward to using it now after watching this video thank you. P.S. what pinpointer do you use?

[@englandshistory]

I use the mi-6

@@englandshistory thank you

[@mikeharrington950]

Sid, what's the name of that little camera you use to zoom in

[@digdoon]

Great video Sid. I'm still getting to grips with my Legend, what settings were you using on this hunt? I've been out and about and getting good readings but when I dig its Iron. its getting to the stage where I'm being selective about what i dig and that's not good I might be missing things.

[@englandshistory]

Now ya asking 🤣 its been a while since i made the video buddy

[@digdoon]

I’ve been struggling a bit with the legend. I’ve been getting good signals and digging iron. I’ve also been getting a lot of strong single bleeps but no finds not even iron. So it’s been a challenge in some places. Don’t get me wrong I have also found some great stuff a lot of silver and artefacts. But some fields have been a challenge. I will plod on. Keep posting your great videos mate and happy hunting.

[@gavinkalaher7314]

Very good machine that Sid, picking out the hammered and the Roman really well. I live in Turkey now, so if I'm in the market for a new detector I'll be picking up one of these!

[@englandshistory]

Theyre Made in turkey, probs get at better price

Hey sid i currently have the simplex and wanted to upgrade what in your opinion is the all round best machine between the deus 2 ,legend and equinox thanks mate 👍

[@englandshistory]

The deus ii is probably the best out them all at the moment but I wouldn’t say its too far ahead in performance… slight advantages, yes any edge can make all the difference on a mega productive field, so it all depends if you want to spend the extra money for that little edge

How do I set up that grunt? Got the legend out twice soo far really liking it, only thing the field I detect is full of iron/interference any help appreciated as new to metal detecting, thanks

P.s Seems to be the same conditions as this field in the video in my field, lots of mineralisation etc

@@lucianowatson2831 you need to set the tone break to about 8 and then make tone 1 a iron tone/grunt… that will make everything from 1/8 a iron grunt

@@englandshistory thanks alot for this! You keep up the great videos 😎

[@jamesprater7192]

Really important to take this video with a pinch of salt as it's sponsored by a retailer. Any half-decent machine would find these targets. It's not heavy iron if you have to move the coil 12" to find it 😉👍

[@englandshistory]

🤣🤣🤣🤣 every machine on the field was struggling due to the ground conditions… deus ii, nox, deus i all of them…

[@MartsTravel]

if you know Sid, he is very honest with his reviews.

[@jeanponce2017]

Take the video with a grain of salt. Or a pinch of salt excuse me. So we don't believe what our eyes saw or our ears heard? Because any half decent machine would find these targets" that might possibly be true. But since when does a HALF PRICED and a solid built carbon fiber shaft machine do what the others do? There's detectors that cost much more that won't find those targets

[@kevinwelsh9572]

cracking machine new it would be , and for less than 700 squid it's a no brainer but that's just my opinion sid

[@newbietones]

My coworker just got this detector. I gave it a quick once over. Seems like a more affordable copycat NOX800. Very very similar to an Equinox. I do like the hand grip and the flashlight on the back of it though. The handgrip is 10x better than the NOX. Way more comfortable.

[@thecoinmagician]

It's as close to been a equinox as you can get , for me it looks to be a better detector especially the legend pro pack is far better value than the equinox toy that breaks
