Hi there Jeffrey, this was my aim in this video to show people you can do well in metal detecting with a cheap metal detector. The Nokta Makro Simplex is a great machine for the money. Thank you for coming along to my channel and watching this video, I wish you good fortune on your future hunts. Have a look at this video of mine which shows 2 of my very best gold finds, both found on the same field, just 7 days apart: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jJLWgqKwpq2Zr9E Thanks again, and I hope to see you on my channel again.

The Simplex is great for Silver and Gold. Grunts and jumping VDI is mostly junk unless your looking iron stuff then you can mess with the settings. But I’ve used the Simplex for a year and it paid for its self 10x Gold rings,chains, lots of silver and lots lots of coins. It’s worth the money. I upgraded to the Legend because the of Simplex being such a good quality build product.

[@TheDukesOfDerbyshire]

Hi mate, thanks very much for taking time out your day to watch this video and for leaving your feedback. I believe the Simplex is the best value machine on the market, for its price ti really is a very good machine. Upgrading to multi frequency is definitely the way to go though if you are detecting beaches. I hope you enjoy the Legend metal detector, I hear very good things regarding that machine. Thanks again, and I hope to see you again on one of my many other metal detecting videos. Gareth

[@Osmiculture]

Beautiful Gothic Florin! As a 3 yr Simplex user, I was pleased to see it held it's own against a machine (in this test) that's nearly 5 x price. I think Park 1 with the latest update was a major winner in depth gains (compared to the faster recovery on Park 2), but I was really surprised you were not running it on max sensitivity, unless that was the factory settings. Generally mine is more stable on the numbers +/- 5 on most things that are not foil or iron-related , especially medium to large coins, so I was equally surprised about the variations you experienced. If the other machine was switched on when you scanned with the Simplex, this might explain it being unsettled. She's simple, but easily intimidated by other sources of EMF. Thanks for doing this!

[@TheDukesOfDerbyshire]

Hi Paul, I didn't touch the sensitivity on either machine, I wonder if the sensitivity might of been down from the last time I used it? I wanted this comparison to be a switch on and go in factory settings, I probably should of checked. Would that explain why the numbers were a bit all over on some targets? I am not very prolific with that machine, I've used it probably 20 times in total. Thank you for taking the time to watch and comment, its very much appreciated. I hope to catch you on my next metal detecting adventure

[@Ingolf_unterwegs]

No need for another post, this is the right place to tell. First of all, thank you for this video. Ideal for me. I use the simplex and thinking about a "better" machine. Why do I write? It's the thing with the jumpy ID numbers on the simplex. Couple years ago I think it was not so jumpy, I definitely can remember that most coins had a very stable ID. Now I have the same like you in this video. I use the Park mode 2. @paul I would like to know your settings and the software number if possible. It might have something to do with a sw update? BTW, I will probably use the simplex another season ☝️🤷‍♂️

[@TheDukesOfDerbyshire]

@@Ingolf_unterwegs hello, sorry to hear that you too have a similar issue. Hopefully Paul can help you out?

[@Osmiculture]

@@Ingolf_unterwegs Hello - I'm on update 2.77, running usually in Park 1 for depth, mostly in fields and pastures with little mineralisation, which is not heavily polluted. It automatically ground balances anyway in 4/5 modes, so I always crank up the sensitivity to max, and mostly switch off the iron grunt on zero (all 3 hammer bars off) which cuts down chatter. I do get often fooled by solid iron where the signal strength is difficult to ignore (such as horsehoes around 70), however if I hear the mid-tone dipping or hiccuping I can usually ignore medium sized iron that the Simplex does it's best to screen out. I will however switch on iron when prospecting on a relatively new but 'empty' field, to get to possible hotspots of prior activity. I use Field mode or All Metal when a target is deeper and escaping me in Park 1, just to locate any very lost signals after digging a plug. I also use the green and black Teknetics Tek-Point Pulse pinpointer, which is pretty powerful and makes my post-plug game pretty rapid and efficient. Hope that is useful. 🙂

For somebody like me on the cusp of buying my first detector that was a brilliant video. I cannot Justin the expense of something like the Deus, especially as a new starter but to have the Simplex compared so favourably to the much more expensive piece of kit was exactly what I needed to hear. I don’t want to go into this with a detector that is really not going to give me any fun. I have narrowed my choice down almost to the Noktek or the Minelab Equinox. This video gives me something to really think about. Thanks again for a great piece of work

Hello John, thank you very much for the kind words and thank you for taking the time to watch. Have you seen my Beginners Guide To Metal Detecting vide??? I think you will find that very useful.

Hi Stewart, a couple others pointed out the sensitivity was not high enough.

Great video! I absolutely love my Simplex, have had it over 3 years now. I swing with a friend who has a deus 2 and we are always relatively the same as far as end if the day finds. I don't believe in air tests either. You did this video perfectly with the natural hunting. I dig on tone always. The vdi can be bouncy on the simplex but mine is pretty good overall, I run 2.77 and it's very stable for me. I don't pay too much attention to VDI as long as it doesn't go from 12 to 73 to 21, I look for vdi within 10

[@TheDukesOfDerbyshire]

Hi mate, thank you for taking the time to watch this video and for leaving your feedback. I've done a few other comparisons like this and I only ever use real targets in the ground. I believe this is the ONLY true way to compare machines. The Simplex on its day will keep up with most other machines.

Hi mate, thanks its by far my best ever Gothic florin. Several years ago, my friend and I were detecting this field for the first time, my friend had a big signal, we dug it out and it was a stack of old silver coins including 3 mint Gothic florins, a couple of half crowns among other coins.

[@markdoehrman5134]

I Still use Eurotek Pro with Mars Tiger coil on it, it much much more stable than Simplex and Vanquish 540 which I use to have. That buckle would have read about 88 to 92 on eurotek to about 12" down. I'll probably try out T2 se for next detector, it's more in my affordable range and probably closest to Dues be my guess. Over the years it seems all the new kids on the block below $400 all seem to share similar traits with jumpy target ID, and in tougher sites really struggle to pull any the deeper goodies, seems like they are really not great at unmasking. Every target can sound good with Simplex is the problem I had with it, and way to jumpy for time limited deep coin shooting. Dues sounds awesome and very stable.

[@TheDukesOfDerbyshire]

Hi there Mark, there is a lot to be said about new machines and new technology, but with metal detecting, success in the field comes with knowing your machine and having great land. I know a lot of guys who still use big old heavy machines and have great success. But ultimately these modern lightweight machines are brilliant and if you are passionate about something, you should always have the best kit that you can afford.

Tiny bits of foil, 6-7 inches It says max 8 inches on the screen, but performs amazingly well and better than expected. I'm very happy and have dug up loads of rubbish. Lots and lots. No gold so far. The sore back and arm is for free🤣🤣 I've used it for eight hours and the batteries haven't even drained a quarter. The expensive models 350- 800, in my opinion, are only better for discrimination of metals. I'm not lazy and happily dig up all rubbish.💪👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

I used a garret ace 250 for a couple year before upgrading to the simplex. All I can say is the ace is what it says "ace" good value for money, finds good targets and I never felt like I was underperforming compared to my mates with far better machines. When we were out together I usually always managed to find decent Victorian or georgian silver coins with it along with all the other junk. My first time out with the ace 250 I found two king Charles scottish turners 👍

I've used it only twice, but so far, I'm not happy with it. It may be because I was hoping to get a little more depth with the 11 inch. coil (my Deus is 9 inch.). The Deus is so much lighter/smaller, but I may not feel that way if I started with the Simplex. Thanks for the video.

Hi mate, if you have been using an XP machine, going to a Simplex is going to feel pretty horrible. Yes its a great price, but its heavy, its noisy and a little bit erratic compared to the smoothness and cleaness of an XP metal detector. But there is a huge difference in cost there.

Interesting. I have a V540 and ive followed a couple people with Manticores on the beach .... honestly the main difference i noticed was that the Manticore was information overload with way too much sensitivity. They kept pulling up tiny bits of metal, with slightly better depth. My conclusion was that its not worth the upgrade. Sticking with my 540 for now, intrigued by the Quest V80 whenever that gets released ....

You hit the nail on the head with big & clunky, I could never use a Simplex after using super lightweight XP machines. Same as I could never go back to the Garrett AT Pro - as much as I love that machine, now it feels HORRENDOUS. Gothic florin was a worldie, there is a long story behind that. Several years ago when me and a friend got this permission, he had a great signal, big and deep. He unearthed 3 MIN Gothic florins, 2 half Georgian half crowns and several other silver coins in a big stack. It was insane!! We scoured the area and detected the area and field for several more years. We eventually stopped detecting it. BUT I have been back and filmed several more videos here on my own and low and behold I find another Gothic florin on his hoard spot!! How epic and crazy is that??

[@jacfoxworthy766]

I find a lot ov hammered but not to many milled but that florin is a worldee!! Good for you!

[@TheDukesOfDerbyshire]

Hi Jac, thank you for visiting my channel and watching this video. Finding lots of hammered is a very good thing, it is the other way round for me, I have fund hundreds of milled silver coins over the years but only 25 - 30 hammered silver coins. I guess t depends the area and terrain you search. I like my hilly pasture footpath fields where I know I will find lots of coins. The florin is beautiful, several years ago I was detecting this field with a friend, he found 3 in 1 hole along with a couple of half crowns and other silver coins. We scoured that area and detected the field for years. Then all these years later I find another one on the same spot!! Its a crazy hobby! Thanks for tuning in, I hope to see you on my next adventure

Thanks mate, this is the 4th mint Gothic florin off this patch, my friend found 3 in the same hole several years ago!! I agree, most machines will find most signals. Thanks for taking the time to watch and leaving me feedback. Hope to catch you on my next metal detecting escapade

[@andrewtiffin4043]

Great video mate, I started out with a simplex and loved it found my first 2 hammered coins with it and for the money like you say you can’t go wrong with it for a beginners machine

[@TheDukesOfDerbyshire]

Hi Andrew, good to hear from you mate. Thanks for taking the time to watch what I am working hard on creating. I just could not knock the Simplex, yes its a bit heavy and clunky compared to some machines, but for the price, it is epic and its no wonder Nokta Makro have sold so many units. Cheers as always for your support, I have lined up my next video for 5pm today (80 minutes form now). See you there

Cracking comparison video, the Simplex isn't the most stable machine it was the chaotic numbers that always annoyed me. That gothic florin was stunning mate what a find.

[@TheDukesOfDerbyshire]

Thanks mate, 36,000 views and climbing, this received almost 1,500 views last Friday alone and is averaging well over 1k a day at the moment, its insane statistics for my puney channel. Its very satisfying seeing something I created do so well. A lot of people asked me why did I do the thumbnail in dollars, well 40% of all views from this video have come from America. I thought it was a cunning bit of YouTubing :)

[@thesouthernsearcher]

@The Dukes Of Derbyshire that was clever thinking mate!

[@Albon29yd]

Compared to the Nokta Impact the Simplex is just a toy and is the best VLF ever made. The most popular detector in Russia and introduced in Australia in 2017 and still being built due to the worldwide strong demand. It can be used in the Golden Triangle in Victoria's goldfields and not affected by the very high mineralised soils.

[@TheDukesOfDerbyshire]

Hi there, thanks very much for the channel visit and for watching this video. I appreciate your feedback. At the time the Simplex was a great machine for the money. I believe there is now something called the Nokta Score

[@pirateofalllseas]

Hi. When you film the coins closely, are you using a gopro ? Or another cam ?

[@TheDukesOfDerbyshire]

Hello, thanks for coming along to my channel and taking the time to watch this video. I would never use a GoPro, they aren't very good at focusing on anything past 3 feet away. Everything you see in this video was filmed on my smart phone which is a Samsung Galaxy S22 in 4K Ultra HD @ 60 FPS (frames per second). Hope this helps, and thank you again, have a great weekend.

i started with a Simplex and for the money it was great, i did a lot of beach detecting locally and it would find everything. I upgraded to an Equinox 800 and i've not found anymore finds but i have found less. Now that sounds odd finding less but there's a lot out there hiding that you don't actually want to find, or can identify better with a more capable machine and avoid. The 800 is without a doubt a better machine than the Simplex and i would never go back to a Simplex, but for the money it would be a great starter detector.

[@TheDukesOfDerbyshire]

Hi there, thanks for visiting my channel and for watching this video. When you get a new machine, your finds rate will suffer for many months while you learn a new machine and a new manufacturer. A Minelab Equinox will absolutely destroy a Nokta Simplex on land, on beach, on any terrain. Thanks again for tuning in and good fortunes for the year 2024

[@tomf4547]

Does it matter what figures are on the display if you're digging up everything you detect?

[@TheDukesOfDerbyshire]

Hi, not really. The numbers on the screen of a detector are for reference. The number gives you an indication of the composition of the metal ie 90+ can be copper and silver. Pull tabs 60s, small gold less than 50 etc etc

[@rogerwilliams2902]

Cracking video !. In my view , both machines are just as good as each other in reality . Rediculous price difference.

[@TheDukesOfDerbyshire]

Hi there, thanks very much for visiting my channel and for watching this video. Both machines are very good metal detectors, the Deus 2 is much more refined, lighter, more customisable etc, but this video was to show you can succeed at this hobby with a small budget. Thanks again

[@michaelcapp4597]

Great comparison, the Simplex + jumpy numbers nice sharp signals, Deus solid numbers but sounds like something bought from toys r us .

[@TheDukesOfDerbyshire]

Hi mate, thanks for visiting my channel and taking time out your day to watch this video. The XP Deus 2's tones are customisable, you can modify them to suit. I have never actually done this as I like them the way they are. I do not like the Nokta tones though. But it is all preference, some people like one thing, some like another, same as anything in life. Thanks again and I hope to see you on my channel again. Gareth

I'm finding more than my buddy with his nox with my simplex+ using the Detech 15 inch coil I'll tell y'all that. Put his machine to shame and with the new coil it's still cheaper than minelab, thanks for the video bro, I recommend the Detech 15 though man makes the simplex shine

[@TheDukesOfDerbyshire]

Hi mate, the Equinox in my opinion is one of the best machines out there for pasture and wet sand. Perhaps your friend is not very experienced with his machine. There's no doubt the Simplex is a great machine for the money and it can compete with much more expensive metal detectors. I used to love a big coil but I'm not so much a fan anymore, 11 inch is perfect. Thanks so much for taking the time to watch this video and for leaving your feedback, it is super appreciated. I really hope to see you on one of my many other metal detecting videos. Gareth

[@dailyallowance3826]

Could the simplex just need a different coil for optimization , anoyher guy pur a coil on his outside of its capacity and iy performed better , so what would be a mlre optimal coil size etc be for yhe simplex

[@TheDukesOfDerbyshire]

Hi there, I had the sensitivity turned down a bit on the Simplex, so I think this might of caused the numbers to be a bit all over the place. In any case, this machine performs very well for its price-tag. Thanks for watching and I hope to see you on my channel again. Gareth

[@UkuleleBobbyKemp]

Good video, well put together mate. BuuuuuuuuuuT: The *ONLY* way to genuinely compare 2 machines, would be to Push the settings on each, and see which performed best in the hands of someone who really KNEW it, and was really trying to roll with CUSTOMISED settings, (where possible). ...but no one can be arsed to do that can they?... let's be honest here... 😇😅 (Deus I user here btw). Thanks again - but I wouldn't want to be making a decision based in this video. All best, Bobby 🙏

[@TheDukesOfDerbyshire]

Hi Bobby, I totally agree with you here. I'm not renowned for heavily testing detectors. This video was simply to prove a point that you do not need to spend big bucks on a machine to be a successful detectorist. An entry level machine can keep up with a top level machine. Although the targets and conditions on the day favoured both machines. Thanks so much for tuning in and supporting my metal detecting channel, I hope to see you on my next adventure

[@Notchedto11]

What a beautiful florin mate, that sits very high up on my bucket list! Good to see the Simplex holding its own, despite the jumpy VDI’s the tones were good. Can I ask, do you quote dollars because of appealing to the US viewer?? I’m curious. Have a great weekend

[@TheDukesOfDerbyshire]

Hi Marcus, many people have told me I need to appeal more to our friends on the other skde of the pond. Only 10.6 of my viewers are American. There are 332 million people in America, quite the audience. This is why I chose to do this in dollars yes, purely tactical. Next weeks will be in Dingo Dollars as I push on all fronts 🤣🤣🤣 The gothic florin was found on the same location my friend had found 3 in the same hole with 2 Georgian half crowns and a couple other silver coins. We have scoured the area over the years. It is sonewhat remarkable and unbelievable that I found this coin, but this is why this hobby can be fascinating

[@NathanielOutdoorAdventures]

Totally agree with your summation my friend. And loved that florin

[@TheDukesOfDerbyshire]

Thank you Nathaniel, that is the best Gothic florin I've ever found. When we got this permission several years ago, my friend and I were detecting it for the first time. My friend found 3 of these mint Gothic florins in the same hole, along with 2 half crowns and some other silver coins. We scoured the area and have detected this field many times since. So for me to find this one on the same area is amazing!! It is clearly part of the same spill, I told him about it and he was as shocked as me! This is why you can never write off a great field. It would not surprise me if there is a couple of gold coins lying about in this field (somewhere). Thanks for visiting my channel and helping to support what I do

I think Deus 2 factory settings are more powerful. It look like simplex was on about 50-60% sensitivity. I know Deus has the edge but it should. I personally dug a measured in the ground with pinpointer 58 caliber Minnie ball at 14” with the simplex. It was a very whisper but for non salt environments the Simplex is hands down the best value on the market. It will probably get 90% of finds compared to any detector, just not a great salt beach machine, at least not for me
