Used Metal Detectors Reviews -
Whites Coinmaster 2900D Trooper

This is a great little detector. This is a picture of my treasure. There was some trash dug – {one large piece of iron at 6 inches, crushed aluminum can and other large pieces of aluminum} as well as 56 cents in coins. One quarter, 3 dimes and a zinc penny. All this in around 25 minutes of very casual hunting.

Since I own one of these I thought I would give you a review of this detector. I had given this detector to my father many years ago for a Christmas present. He really did like it but it wasn’t used a lot. Retirement seemed to keep he and mom traveling in their Rv with little time to use his detector.

The 2900 D as for as I can tell is the same as the 3000D less the meter. I belive White’s calls it a 2900 S3

This past weekend the weather was damp and hot here on the gulf coast of Texas but cooler than it had been in quite sometime so I was thinking about dad and decided me and the 2900D should get reacquainted again.

The 2900 is dead simple to operate. It has 4 control knobs. Each control knob has a (P) Preset marking. Just turn on set and go basically. The four knobs are Tune (sensitivity) , ground balance, discrimination, and a combination volume and on off switch. It uses a single 9volt battery with a low battery indicator light. There is room for a spare battery also. Few inexpensive detectors have a manual ground balance which can come in very handy in some parts of the country. Although the change in volume and sound can help determine whether the target is good or bad it is not as good as say a Tesoro. Using iron discrimination only I have found it to be very good at ignoring small iron and pick up a nickel close by. Some detectors have problems with this.

It also has a Retune button located on the end of the handle. This will retune the detector after changing settings and can also be used to help with pinpointing.

This is another simple inexpensive detector from the early 1980’s that will find just as much or more as a new $500.00 detector. The only difference is you will have to set the discrimination low to keep from loosing rings and nickels and dig more trash. But that’s mostly true with a $500.00 detector also.

Whites metal detectors are known for their performance and quality. I have a number of detectors. I bought my dad a whites as a Christmas gift many years ago and he’s passed on now but the detector which was his and I now use works just like when it was new.

There are many models of White metal detectors to choose from and picking the right one for your application can seem like a daunting task.  I am going to take a brief look at the different kinds of white metal detector so that you can choose the right one for your project.

A Quick Look At The White Metal Detector Line

There are four main types of White metal detectors each with their own special purpose.  Some White metal detector dealers only sell certain models so be sure to ask them if they have your specific White metal detector in their catalog before you go there.  First things first let’s break down the four types of White metal detectors so that you can have a better idea of which one to look for.

A Brief Look At The White Metal Detector Line Up

There are four main types of White metal detectors each with their own special purpose. Some White metal detector dealers only sell certain models so be sure to ask them if they have your specific White metal detector in their catalog before you go there. First things first let’s break down the four types of White metal detectors so that you can have a better idea of which one to look for.

The first type is the E Series. This series of metal detector is designed for the professional treasure hunter operating in a variety of areas. It works well on beaches but is truly at its best out in the forest. This rugged line has several models that all have different features and benefits, but regardless of which one you look at they are all professional grade detectors that can function in a variety of different environments.

The next group is the Prizm series. This series of metal detectors is designed for the budget conscious treasure hunter. Each of these products are extremely easy to use and reliable and all come only with the features you need to do basic treasure hunting. If you are looking for a great entry level metal detector the White metal detectors in this series are the ones for you.

After the Prizm series the next White metal detector to take a look at is the Beach Series. These products are professional grade metal detectors that are meant to be used on the beach. They all are waterproof enough to be used in the surf and are highly resistant to salt. These products can work in the worst of beach conditions including black sand. Beach and surf metal has a new deeper layer of hunting with this line of products.

The last White metal detector to take a look at is the specialty detectors. These detectors are a collection of specialty detectors and single item products. Included in here are detectors for bounty hunters and other law enforcement professionals. These White metal detectors are built to the highest standards.
