I picked up a Minelab Quattro which I have been using on certain parts of the beach. Remember, of course, that this lot is over a 30 year period - I've hung on to a few of the earlier detectors which are more valuable as 'back-ups' than what they would fetch if sold. It is a great machine to use on inland sites and 'dry' beaches. The most recent machine is an XP GoldMaxx Power, which I am getting more used to now.
I wish I would have hung on to that one, but it went in a deal towards a Minelab E-Trac, in turn, I let that go. On inland sites, it has done superbly well and been very reliable with small hammereds.Īnother machine which I grew to like was a Tesoro Lobo. It has found some lovely stuff, and lots of spendable money on the beach as well. Users will remember what it was like when two 1265Xs were in close proximity! The last Fisher which I bought was my 1236-X2, which I consider to be another winner. My next detectors were all Fishers: 1266X (great on inland sites and dry sand beaches - too sensitive on wet stretches of beach), 1235X with the frequency shift - I found that it was very good on rallies. After all this time, I still have it, and it is still operable, though it does not often get used - but a great back-up, if ever required. And I found this a winner because everything about it was right for me - straight-forward to use, light, well balanced, a great "switch-on-and-go" machine. In the mid-1980s, I invested in a newly-released detector - the legendary Fisher 1265X, again a tone-discriminator. It was with this machine that I found my earliest (metal) artifact - a spearhead from the Middle Bronze Age, whilst on holiday in the Yorkshire Dales. I found the 990B a real pleasure to use, and I never knew it to 'lie'. I much preferred the 'tone discrimination' to the meter readings. My next detectors were also C-Scopes (VLF/TR950D, followed by a 990B). At one hunt site, there was a submerged Medieval village and a Roman signal station which were reclaimed by the sea during the 13th century. Living in Lincolnshire on the east coast of England, I spent a lot of time on the local beaches where, quite naturally, the bulk of finds were coins and jewelry items. Metal detecting was virtually unheard of in this area at that time. I started detecting in 1980, the first machine being a C-Scope TR300, which I did well with. All the below finds (except the spear-head) were found in East Lincolnshire. Over the years, together with members of a detecting group, we have unearthed quite a range of coins and artifacts, and here are images of a selection of them which I hope will prove to be of interest.
