Road Testing the Minelab Manticore M8 Metal Detector Coil at the Beach

[@MrAussiejuice]

Fantastic demo, looks like the whole unit is water proof very handy if wading. question dose the manticore floating water?? Want to demo one soon.

hi , yes the manticore is waterproof to 5m !!! no it doesn't float. welcome to come down to your local MINERS DEN and we will run though it for you!!!

Good video, you should buy or make yourself a floating sifter, way easier to find the target.

Great video thanks,I'm hoping to get the manticore with M8 soon.i also have a beach that's only 2 inches of sand,before clay..how many inches will the coil pick up a chain.. I've found over 20 pendants from this beach,but only 1 chain,with the nox..

it really depends on how big each link in the chain is- the smaller the links, the less depth and vice versa- larger chunkier chains will get more depth. Each chain link is its own target to the detector, so a chain with tiny links you may only get at 1" or so- it is just down to the physics behind how the machines work
