  • In this video, I explore the tones and the VDI numbers that the minelab vanquish metal detector gives on certain coins. I cover both common coins and artefacts found in the UK. I also show you how to read the VDI numbers on the coin to determine the type of the coin it could be.
    If you're looking for a metal detector that can find all types of coins, then the minelab vanquish may be the detector for you! In this video, I show you how to use the detector to find coins that are both . I also show you how to read the VDI numbers on the coin to get an idea of the quality of the coin or artefact.

    On my equinox I cannot rely on the VDI numbers as they jump all over the place. BUT, with my 340 on the beach, the numbers are rock solid almost every time. So yes, with the Vanquish you can rely on the numbers, it's a fantastic machine. Oh, and on the beach it can detect deeper in sand than the nox every time.

  • @antonharefield8341
    @antonharefield8341 11 місяців тому

    I've got the 340 for beach detecting. I can confirm I get exactly the same numbers as you for lead and pound coins, in often highly mineralised black sand. On the beach you do not need any other detector, it's that good.

    The vanquish series is good but imho if deeper targets gave a fainter response it would be a cracking machine.Yeh I get the depth gauge,however that is never as good as variable modulation.
