I just bought my Legend and had no intention of using it underwater. When I read something is "waterproof" I always think "yeah right, I'll ruin it" if I dunk it. I see this video and think WOW it REALLY IS waterproof! Incredible. I'm just getting started but I'll blow a gasket if I ever find ONE ring, much less 9! What a day you had! :)

[@diggun]

Haven’t taken my legend underwater yet but that looks like a whole lot of fun!!

[@monkeyslap]

Seriously! I'm itching to get one of this for my river snorkeling trips!

[@DirtFishMish]

Love that short shaft setup! Kinda glad the Legend doesn't come with it by default, because well.. I'd be poorer right now. 😆 Such an unreal day out!!

[@TreasureAdventure]

I just shoved the lower shaft into the top shaft and shoved some foil in the gap. Dive shaft complete! 😂

[@davidgesell]

This is almost unbelievable that you could find so many rings in one place at the same time...

[@TreasureAdventure]

I tend to only edit and upload the great days but there are many days where I won't find much more than a few sinkers! If the legitimacy of the footage is in question then just let me know where I can send you the hours of unedited footage 😅

[@davidgesell]

@@TreasureAdventure Nah I believe you. I watched hours of it already from other people. I know how tedious it can be to find pull tab after bottle cap all day. Good finds.

[@Scarah-qk6wk]

Good stuff! Enjoyed watching 👍😁

[@verityphipps5846]

Wow! Amazing find with the sovereign ring 🤩

[@Goldandtravel]

Awesome work Ed 👌👌👌

[@TreasureAdventure]

Thanks Flippa!

[@edhughes8262]

Been thinking of upgrading after a year of fun with the Simplex to the Legend. Watching you dive with confidence with yours helps to narrow the choices. Keep up the great content Ed 👍🏻

[@TreasureAdventure]

Thanks Ed! The Legend is a natural upgrade from the Simplex, you'll get some fantastic salt water performance from a Multi-Frequency like The Legend 👌

[@WildDigger]

Very good hunt! Congratulations on the gold and silver. GL&HH Matt

[@arronthomas68]

Thank you for stating the target IDs. I have the legend and it helps me learn. 👍

[@ChasingGoldAustralia]

I think I'm going to have to get a legend for the goldfields, nice work Ed 👍

[@DNH-DiggingNorwegianHistory]

What an awesome hunt mate well done👏💪

[@goldseaoutdoors4708]

Way to go wow great finds love it congrats 👏

[@TheTimijay]

Amazing. I am loving my legend. Kind of wish I got it before my Deus 2 now which is gonna gather dust I feel darn it oh well. Congrats on the Sov!

[@mleko80rt]

Gratuluję. Naprawdę świetny film. Widać,że mokra Legend jest bardziej odporna na wodę od Equinox800. Moj Equinox już dwa razy zalał się wodą.

[@sir-ed-detect7109]

im getting a legend in a few weeks, cant wait to try it,

[@TazzzieAdventures]

Some sweet finds. I just love black silver off the beach and yeah bit hard to top a coin ring would take my breath away also. ATB Brad

[@TreasureAdventure]

Black silver is awesome, nice to know it’s got some age to it cause the gold doesn’t give you much clue about its age 😂 Absolutely stoked with the coin ring 🤙

[@stacypinkdetectingaustrali5339]

Great jewellery hunt Ed

[@nocker_tech]

Very cool!

[@amirdigibyte5669]

Hello, can I explore under the sea with nokta legend without headphone and without sound only with vibration?

[@epicadventuresinparadise]

Thinking about purchasing a Legend for detecting in salt water, are they quiet in the salt? I use a Minelab Excalibur2 now and like the way the Legend shortens for packing and diving.

[@Elk_Detects]

Well done great to see:)

[@howiegrapek1488]

Fantastic compilations of finds! I enjoyed this video tremendously. I have the same machine and live down here in south Florida. Normally I just walk the beaches and do some wading up to my knees at low tide. But I am a master diver, so I'm waiting for the summer time to head down to the calm waters at low tide... that's where the treasure usually is. I'm not sure if I'll "scuba" or "snorkel", but this gives me some great ideas. I loved how you said what your target id and tones were (ie: 45, etc), but I have a few questions... 1, How deep were you in this video? 2: What were your legend settings? (I assume beach wet mode, what were your other settings? Rec? IF, ST, AG, tone settings, and sensitivity?

[@whitemanriding]

Been thinking of getting the deus 2 . But being a nokta fan I will be adding the Legend to my stable .

[@robertedwards87]

i already have 2xnox 800' but these tend to get damaged under water so after watching your video and doing a bit of research i decided to buy a legend for when i go diving and was hoping you would do a video showing your settings

[@TreasureAdventure]

That's awesome! I've had multiple Nox's flood on me so I couldn't keep doing that! The Nokta Legend and Simplex+ build quality is far better in my experience 😁 I might include settings in my next video 👍

[@PescatoreFocoso]

congrats! fantastic find! used always gloves, i dont find that bag out of Australia and shipping for italy is 20 euro XD

[@MingokTV]

I wish I have this kind of machine on my metal detecting adventure

[@stacypinkdetectingaustrali5339]

Beautiful gold ring 💍

[@freebird57350]

Wonderful! Question for you since you know underwater hunting. I have the simplex plus (I imagine it is the same as yours in this respect) and wondering if I could hunt underwater without headphones and use the vibe And the audio? In other words will the audio sound underwater without headphones and can it be heard? It's winter here and can't go underwater for another 4 months...but if I need to get the headphones would like to get them now. Thanks for your opinion! Keep up the good work!

I have a legend gonna go out to a few beaches with shallow water and no waves we have a lot of those here in Puerto Rico, not ready to dive yet but i can try on those clear water beaches with water up to my waist.

[@TreasureAdventure]

Absolutely, that sounds like an absolutely ideal spot mate 👌

[@retrodqfan]

@@TreasureAdventure Hi! thanks for your reply, can I ask your setting for underwater? thanks!

[@human-capitalllc]

What headphones are you using? Lake or ocean? Great video thanks for sharing

[@nissanbakish]

Hello Ed. Great video and very sweet finds. Question - how did you connected the headphones to the LEGEND? The connector is different.

[@TreasureAdventure]

I'm just using Headphones with a Nokta style connector. These ones are the LS Pelso's but Nokta make some too

[@danno5805]

I want to buy one of these I've heard nothing but good about them. What sight did you buy yours from, if you don't mind me asking? Thanks.😊

[@redwood1957]

Are the head phones a big help under water? How has that machine held up? Thank you

[@user-ps8wo3qq8l]

good afternoon, can you tell me whether it is possible to submerge the legend more than 3m and use wireless headphones underwater?

[@underwaterarcheology4915]

Hi Ed,what is better xp deus 2 or legend thanks

[@JasonRetribution]

real well.

[@marcosansaldi1995]

Whats the water proof rating? I’ve seen contradictory info ranging from 3 meters to 5 meters

[@stanvisualseychelles932]

This is really nice. Congratulations. I'm still deciding on which to buy. The legend or Nox 800. Any leaks yet with the legend. I will be using the detector primarily in the sea snorkeling like you and on wet sand

[@TreasureAdventure]

Actually I operate the Nokta service centre here in Australia and we have not had a single Legend leak in the country! The waterproofing of the Legend and Simplex range is far better than other detectors I have used 👍

[@stanvisualseychelles932]

@@TreasureAdventure this is good news will get a legend and a simplex as back up. I hunt every day in the sea like in your video

[@Whitebeard1715]

What mode are you running?? AM. Or multi?

[@africo9104]

Amazing video, Hi I've just subscribed to your channel. Tell me, how do you keep the Legend near you when you use both hand on your object which in this case was the rock with the coin ? I'm hoping to order the Legent soon. Wow , you found gold , but I have read that it's quite useless at finding gold , what do you say about that ? I'd be very interested. Question number 3 , how old is your machine? Because I read that the older models gave a lot of trouble in the beginning, I'm worried as I'm buying online and can't see if the machine is a older model or not. I can't buy in a shop here as they don't carry them and I can't order from overseas because of customs and paying hefty import duty. Thanks in advance.

[@TreasureAdventure]

Thanks for subscribing and the nice words! The Legend is tethered to me via the headphone cable as I'm wearing waterproof headphones with the Legend. There are many interesting opinions about metal detectors on the internet and generally false information floating around! The Legend is very capable of finding gold jewellery in any of its modes, no question about it. The Legend also has a goldfield mode made for gold prospecting which is extremely sensitivity to small gold nuggets but if they are comparing to $10k gold machines then its not at the same level of course. All Legends are the same if they have been updated to the latest version 👍

[@africo9104]

@@TreasureAdventure Thank you very much for your reply. Much appreciated.

[@Demy1970]

Are you using the vibration function or waterproof head phones?

Podrías decirme que ajustes llevas bajo el agua??

[@marcelomigueldasilva7444]

👏👏👏

[@Andre-bs5nl]

I've took my legend underwater snorkeling today like half a meter max in salt water. I found it to be super super frustrating as it picks up mostly false signals so I had to bring the sensitivity down to 13. Combine that with medium current and you're left with a very bad experience.

[@robertschweppenhauser9891]

What make of metal detector are you using?

[@robertedwards87]

nice hunt,how deep did you go?

[@TreasureAdventure]

Max was 3m or less on this dive 👍

[@Djmixtacy]

Maybe a stupid question but what Gear are you using for going under water? Scuba? How do u breathe? It looks super fun but buying diving Gear is a bit too much for me

[@TreasureAdventure]

It's a good question. The day in this video I was just snorkelling and holding my breath which is why I go up and down so much 😄

[@loganbrannen6017]

Quick question, I was inspired by your video to make my Legend underwater. Is it normal to get false targets of the coil isn’t touching the sand? Also to get false targets on the shore where the waves break? Thank you!

[@TreasureAdventure]

Hi Logan, if you are fully updated and using Beach mode multi W then there shouldn’t be much if any falsing. If it happens when not swinging the coil then it is electrical interference 👍

[@loganbrannen6017]

@@TreasureAdventure thanks for the reply! I’m on 1.09, multi W beach mode, all metals. I am thinking maybe ground balance?

[@TreasureAdventure]

@@loganbrannen6017 ok take it out of all metal. Salt comes through in the 1-10 range at high sensitivities. That will make it a lot more stable 👍

[@benadam8435]

What is the maximum deep can the legend reach under water ?

Beach W Sense 25 Recovery 5 Stability 3 Honestly just make sure its in Beach Wet with the volume high enough 👍

[@wumme-sondler.manuelbeeren1120]

And your Setting?

[@Elektrotechniker]

Isn‘t it kinda risky to use this detector underwater while diving at depths of around 2+ metres when it‘s only waterproof up to 3m in freshwater (higher salt content will decrease max depth)!?

[@TreasureAdventure]

For many detectors with a rating of 3m I won't even take them into the water. The Nokta Legend and Simplex+ however are built to easily withstand the rated 3m. I currently operate the Nokta Service centre in Australia and we have never had a single Simplex or Legend leak in the whole country 👍
