A famous Machine, which has already been said and talked a lot about. But what is a blog about diggers and detectors, if there is no Minelab X-Terra 705? Quite impossible thing, I think, to be a blogger and a detectorist and not write about this machine. But what is it in this blue box with the image of the device on a background of mountains and a hand filled with treasure. Most of us have...

A guy from Ukraine have found such a golden coin and he made a video about it. Just interesting to see how did he get it. I...
Some bloggers recently wrote that the future of the known company Minelab “is not looking bright”. They wrote that Minelabs “top executive” Gary Schafer left the company to sell “umbrellas, pens and stickers”. Therfore we decided to do a little “research” and find out, are these rumors true?
