If you are new to metal detecting or an experienced veteran looking to get some extreme value on a metal detector, the White Metal Detector Prizm V is the one for you. I am going to take an in depth look at the White Metal Detector Prizm V so that you can see the host of features it has and why it is such a great value for you. There are many different things that not only separate the White Metal Detector Prizm V from the rest of the field, but from the White Spectrum Metal Detectors as well.

Why Prizm V Has So Many Happy Users

The White Metal Detector Prizm V features a multitone system that lets you hear instantly whether it is a nail, a ring, or a quarter. The unit has 8 distinct audio tones for each zone that range from very low for nails to very high for silver dollars. To engage this feature just press the multitone button and listen as the White Metal Detector Prizm V tells you what you have hit.

It also has voltage controlled oscillation that will give off a higher pitch as you approach the target. This method is a simple and easy way to pinpoint what you are looking for. You can also disengage this for the traditional volume pinpointing if you prefer.

The White Metal Detector Prizm V features a 950 search coil which is the coil that is standard on all of White’s top of the line search detectors. You can read about this part extensively on White’s website as it is at the core of why their detectors are so popular.

There also is a smart notch feature that lets push a button to filter out certain frequencies. This is very handy if you are in area that has a ton of false positives. You can notch out different zones based on your discrimination setting and after playing with a little bit you will be able to see how truly wonderful this feature is.

The thing that really separates the White Metal Detector Prizm V from the rest of the field though is its price. With manufacturers suggested retail price of $450 you get one heck of a metal detector for about half of what you pay on other websites. White is not some fly by night seat of the pants company, they are an industry leader in the field of metal detection manufacturing and the Prizm is the most product for the least amount of money.

I cannot tell you how happy I am with my New Coin Metal Detector. Man, this thing is getting better and better as I learn more about it. I paid less than $160.00 with shipping.

I am not new at coin and metal detecting but I think this Garrett Ace 150 is terriffic. On my first day out, I was really impressed with the performance of the Ace. I turned on the machine, set it in jewelry mode and started searching a local school yard and the results were amazing. I found $2 in clad coins, one wheat penny.

The Best Coin Metal Detector For a Beginner Is;

The Garrett Ace 250 – is a very sensitive machine. I have been surprised many times with the depth that this machine can detect, and with the small size of some of the items it can detect. There have been a few times when the Ace 250 has detected a small item that my pinpointer has had difficulty detecting! It’s quite impressive.

The Ace 250 is feature-rich, but very easy to use. It has several discrimination modes that you can choose from, and it allows you to program a custom one of your own. There is a sensitivity control that allows you to adjust the detectors’ sensitivity for the ground conditions in your area. The Target ID on the display will give you a good idea of what type of target you are detecting, and the depth display will tell you the approximate depth of the target.

Pinpointing with the Ace 250 is quite simple and accurate. I hold down the pinpoint button, and do an X over the target area, as described in the manual. The open coil allows you to see the edge of where the tone starts to drop out on sides, front and back of the target. Imagine the center point of these edges and that is where the target will be.

One must-have option for the Ace 250 is the 4.5” Sniper coil. With the Sniper coil, you can detect targets between trash items. You can also get very close to large metal objects, such as playground equipment and fences. This allows you to find targets that others cannot with their larger, less capable coils. An Ace 250 with a Sniper coil is an awesome combination.

I recently read a well known book on metal detectors… here’s my review of this book-

The authors have so much enthusiasm for their topic that I truly wanted to write a positive review, but unfortunately their enthusiasm is the only redeeming quality of the book. True, you can learn some things about searching for gold with a metal detector. And although the authors disclaim any purpose to sell their products, they refer to them exclusively on the grounds that they are most familiar with them. Well, OK, but it still has an uncomfortable feel to it. And I felt I was unable to translate many of their instructions to generic terms (for use with any brand metal detector).

Early on you are advised that terms are defined in the glossary. But they should also be defined in the text so that one does not have to continually stop reading and refer to the glossary. This is basic to didactic writing. For example, the term “placer” is used many times before it is defined. Ground balancing (canceling) is treated the same way.

There are several passages that are repeated verbatim in different chapters and you are left wondering if you have somehow read the current chapter already! It appears that the editor of the book was in a great rush, or extremely inexperienced. I could not find any reference to RAM publications on the web. The editor was found, and seems to be mostly associated with the works of Garret and Lagal.

Was it worth the price? I suppose, as I at least felt the excitement of hunting for gold. But it would be better titled as a companion to one of the Garret manufactured metal detectors. I still hope to find a book on using the metal detector as a hobby that is a better-written “how to” book that speaks in generic terms about metal detectors. This is a great book if your using a Garrett Metal Detector.

The improvements in technology have corresponded inversely to the number of people using them. Metal detecting for gold as well as treasure has become very popular. Erosion during the past century has exposed millions of tons of virgin substrata for prospectors of today, and metal detectors will increase the chance of discovering new placers.

There’s no better expert on metal detector technology than Garrett. Great as those detectors are, they require some training to use them. Garrett provides the best ‘how-to’ advice available. His book will give you the straight-forward means to practice with it before you begin trekking into the canyons or sweeping old school yards for coins.

Another story from the UK

Keith Bennett was using his metal detector on a Stratford farm owner’s field when his metal detector suddenly alerted him of a strong signal. This strong signal turned out to be over 1,400 Roman coins (or Denarii as they were called back in the day) dating back between 2006 BC to 195 BC! The coins have already been deemed “authentic treasure” which is good in case someone was trying to play a big practical joke on Mr. Bennett.

The silver Roman coins were stashed in a large pot (4 feet deep) that was broken on the top half. It seems as though the pot had been struck when the field was being plowed, causing a few coins to be scattered around the pot. Since this was a rather large collection of coins, it is possible that they could be tied to a wealthy land owner back in Emperor Augustus (or perhaps earlier) reign.

This treasure is expected to bring in tens and thousands of pounds, and Mr. Bennett supposedly allowed to keep half; I can only imagine the sensation of coming across such a historic find. As you can imagine he was quite stunned as you can reflect from his words:

“I just had an incredible feeling of history and going back in time. I felt a sense of connection with the person who buried these coins all those years ago. I wondered who they were and why they didn’t come back for it. It was brilliant – an experience everyone should have.”

Learn how to do it and you still mightn’t find gold treasure who knows, but you’ll certainly find the greatest treasure of them all: solitude.

A gold metal detector can do more than uncover precious metals they can also be used to find coins as well or any other kind of metal. Gold metal detectors are among the most sought-after metal detectors and are not made to work in areas that have a lot of trash like pull tabs.

Not even the best Gold metal detector will be able to properly function in some conditions where you have a lot of trash. For that you want a coin detector with a good discrimination circuit. For example, seawater or saltwater can interfere with the electromagnetic field generator pattern. (That’s a fancy term for what the Precision Gold metal detector uses to help find good metal stuff). If the metal objects have been buried more than six or seven inches deep underground, then that could be too deep for the Precision Gold metal detector.

Almost any metal detector can detect gold but one designed for this operation like the Fisher Gold Bug.

The Gold bug while not cheap is inexpensive compared to the top of the line minelab at over $4000.00

Fisher metal detectors have been around for a very long time. The Gold Bug is one of the most popular gold prospecting detectors on the market. The Gold Bug is so popular for a very good reason it sniffs out the gold.

All credible reviewers who analyze and rate these products choose the Gold Bug Detector. Some of them cover the Gold Bug Detector in lengthy and well-detailed non-comparative reviews. Here are some links for Gold Bug Detector that contain comments from these reviewers.
