The XTerra Pro is a good detector. I've been happy with mine. The first few months I was frustrated with it. One thing to remember with any detector is that it takes time to learn that machine. Put a lot of hours into it and understand what targets sound like and the VDIs for your soil. I started in my yard and found a lot of coins and other things as well as the trash, but digging a lot in the beginning helps you learn. When you get it get out there and have some fun!

Nice! I Just Got Mine. Finding All Sorts of Coins w/ Her.

It will definitely find them, if you put some hours in learning this machine you will be rewarded.

Thank you!

You’re welcome!

I just got the Garrett. I’m having a blast in my yard. I don’t have a full metal detector, but do you think I could just use the Garrett as one until I can get a full on metal detector? I’m jonsin’ to go out searching. I figure if I can zip tie a pvc pipe handle on it, it would be easier than hunching over constantly. Great channel!! Just subscribed. 🤜🏻🤛🏻

Do you have the Garrett Pinpointer? If so, you can find metal but cannot differentiate between ferrous (iron) and non-ferrous (coins, foil, cans, jewelry, etc). You can try your idea, it never hurts to experiment but as soon as you can save for a detector it will be much easier once you learn that detector to differentiate between targets and be able to avoid some of the targets that aren't so good. Thanks for watching!

@@jackijax505 It depends on how much you can spend, there's a lot of options out there. If you can afford it I think the best deal right now is the Nokta Triple Score. They have a package deal available soon that gives you a multi frequency detector with room to grow as you learn (more user options). That package comes with the detector, two coils, and wireless headphones ffor $479. If not they have other options too. The Nokta Double Score is $349, and the Nokta Score is $279. They also have a Simplex Series that is single frequency that ranges from $249-349. Another option is The Nokta Find-X and Find-X Pro which they sell only through Amazon. The detectors I mentioned are all waterproof. Nokta also has a 3 year warranty for almost all of their detectors. The Find-X is 2 years I think. Save your money and stay away from the super cheap detectors. It will cost you more money in the long run. If you buy any of these and later decide the hobby is not for you then you should be able to sell any of those pretty easy. If I was just starting out I would most likely look at the Nokta Detectors. They are good.

Keep at it, put some hours in on the XTerra Pro and you will learn the tones and the VDI numbers. It’s a great machine.

I'm seeing prices for it all over the place, where is the best place to buy one from?

@@user-ks9mo4tp9e Honestly, I have run all of the frequencies and done well with them. 5, 10, and 15 khz. In this video, I was running 5khz. Normally if I am hunting a park I start with Park 1-10khz-Sensitivity less than 20 usually-5 tones-recovery speed 2. I always do a noise cancel before I start. If the park is trashy and the machine gets too chattery then I will lower my sensitivity and repeat the noise cancel.

I recently bought the XTERRA as my first MD. I noticed you use a smaller coil then the one that is included with the machine itself. What's the profit of using the smaller coil? Does it make the TID less jumpier?

Whats the age of the park? 1940's or what?

There were old structures at this park that at least date back to the 50’s from what I’ve found but aside from a couple of wheat pennies I haven’t found anything old. I’ve only been living here about 4 years so I’m not sure if this park has been hunted out before me for the old stuff

What settings are you in for coin hunting? With the exterra pro.
