Museum Idiotism and How the Visitors Are Being Confused! (Photos+)

I propose to talk on such a sensitive topic as “errors” in information in museum stands. After all, state museums are a source of serious information. People write scientific works, relying on museum exhibits and specialized literature in the field of history and archeology. It’s one thing if it’s just typos or spelling errors on information stands in museums. Which also, of course, surprises, but not so much that it...

Fisher F22 – Unboxing, Assembly And First Impressions! (Review, Video, Photos+)

Recently I got hold of the Fisher F22 metal detector, which is a pretty decent metal detector both for an entry level detectorist and as an additional detector for the experienced detectorist. After receiving it, I decided to make a short video of the unboxing and the assembly of this detector, to see what is in the kit, and how to assemble the Fisher F22! But first, let’s start with...

Golden Mask WS-105 And WS-106 Headphones: Differences, Overview, Specifications And Connecting Them To The Metal Detector! (Didn’t You Know It?)

When I bought my first Golden Mask metal detector, the 5+ model, then there were wireless headphones included, the model WS-105. These standard headphones arrived in a box, which was very useful for detecting because in it you could not only fit the charger for the headphones but also spare batteries (just in case). Now that I’m interested in trying an analog metal detector (the Golden Mask 4 PRO S...

4.1 Update Available For The XP Deus! (Download File Here+)

So, friends, ladies, and gentlemen! Some time ago (about 6 months ago, approximately), on some sites, a link to the 4.1 update for the metal detector XP Deus was released, but it was quite a crude update and it was called, in fact, something like 4.12. But now, a new update is available, version 4.1, it works and it’s not Alpha anymore, but Beta! It is available for download from...

Golden Mask 4W PRO S – What Is In The Kit? (Review, Photos+)

Greetings fellow detectorists, and a happy new year! We recently wrote some news about the novelty that one Bulgarian store has released; a new version of the Golden Mask 4 PRO, an analog metal detector, which in the world of detectors was nicknamed the “Kalashnikov metal detector”, for its reliability, unpretentiousness, simplicity and search qualities. In general, it is. The link to the news of the release you can find...

First Time Detecting With The Garrett AT MAX! (Testing The Novelty, Finds+)

Greetings fellow detectorists! It seems to be winter, but with my weather and sea climate, I can dig even without a break, as I understand it. It’s cold and then it’s hot, and everything is changing one after another. Rain on New Year’s Eve is usual, so I did not fail to take advantage of the weather. When a little bit of the ground froze, I went to check out...

Karma Coils Are Now Available For The Golden Mask And Nokta Impact! (News+)

As you can see from the first photo – the manufacturer of Karma coils from Bulgaria has expanded its range of supported metal detectors, and now the Karma 13″ coils are available for the Golden Mask series (GM4, GM 5+, and others) and Nokta Impact. For the Nokta Impact, this is especially good news, because, before that, only the unknown producer “BlackDog” was producing coils for the Impact, then they...

Nel Big 15×17″ Coil – Our Review! (Finds, Thoughts, Photos+)

I have some fellow detectorists that I know, who do not like big coils. But there are also those who do not use small and even medium coils. I for myself could not decide in any way: what coils are better, bigger or smaller ones? With experience and the accumulation of different search coils on my metal detectors, I realized that a greater effect you get by using all of...

A New Metal Detector From Makro On The Way? (New For 2018!)

A Makro Manufacturer recently congratulated all the diggers on the upcoming Christmas and New Year on his Facebook page. He did it as usual with a picture of a future metal detector. And here is what we see: A lady without her mask climbed into the water, saw something and even found it. Apparently this detector is really good! (By the way, greetings to all the divers!?) But in fact,...

Transferring Finds To The Museums, How Does This Happen? (Info, Interesting!)

Since the topic is quite relevant, it was decided to write a separate post on this issue. It should immediately be noted that I do not agitate anyone to hand over their finds to museums. I will only describe the process of transferring the objects. Annually on October 7th, in some museums, there is a special holiday – the Day of the donor. A donor is a person who donates...
