Metal Detecting With Our New MANTICORE Metal Detector 

I love Christine’s sense of humour and commentary! Always fun to watch you guys. 😊

We love our manticore.nice and light as well

Nice hunt I enjoyed watching beautiful ocean glad to see you both having fun take care and stay safe see you on the next hunt

Great unveiling of your new work horse. Christine looks like she lives in the arctic. I was expecting to see the northern lights dancing across the sky and maybe a polar bear or two. Both hunts went well. The two dimensional imaging seems very cool! The extra depth will help for relic hunting. Now Christine needs one and a cupcake.

Great video. You'll definitely love the Manticore once you get used to it. At 9:50 in the video, you find that piece of wire, and commented on the shape of the 2D image, but the machine also told you it was ferrous metal (Junk) with the red line above the image. I went out 2 weeks ago with mine and hit a penny at 17 inches, in mineralized soil. I'm learning to weed out the junk. Very impressed with the detector, just wish we had more to sell. There's only about 350 total in the USA right now and waiting on the next shipment. Also waiting for the two new coils that they're releasing soon.

YOU TWO ARE CRAZY ITS WAY TOO COLD TO BE AT THE BEACH. ON THESE COLD DAYS YOU NEED TO GO TO THE PARKS. HOPE YOU FIND SOME GOLD GOOD LUCK.

Minelab kickin butt!

a three ring circus! more finger blingers, awesome. Fun day at the park!

Nice new detector, sweet

I believe that second ring you found is the "one ring", a knock off Lord of the Rings ring! LOL....cool finds at the park!

It’s good to see you both. Christine you so deserve a cup cake! I wish I could have met you when I was in CA.

The Manicore looked like it was doing good for you Bill. Christine looked so tired but great to see you guys at beach.

Congrats on the new detector and the great finds!

Christine made a new friend.. the tanned gull :)

Another great video Bill, you guys just keep getting better with every new video. Christine does look tired but still makes you look good. Take care of her and yourself. God bless you both.

congrats thats a great machine

👍 ringing in the New Year with rings LOL oh and coinage for cupcakes 🧁

Great video and hunt's 👍 congrats on the three rings. Looks like the Manticore is performing beautifully. Thanks. G.

I knew it congratz on the ring Bill, I was just guessing

Nice finds... enjoyed the video......stay safe out there you two! 😊

Was detecting in my yard the other day, only had this property for a little over a year. I found a 10k gold plated wedding band and a cool metal toy jet. Great finds in the park, Bill! 🥰😃

Hey Bill...I'm wondering if the 2D helps differentiate between pull tabs and nickels? My experience with detectors tells me that nickels and pull tabs ring up very, very similar to one another. Could you let me know if the little picture helps tell the difference? It would be awesome to be able to bypass the pull tabs, right? I still appreciate your and Christine's fortitude to go out so consistently. Good weather or bad your commitment to detecting and to your fans (me). I continue to pray for both of you. For your safety and for success in your endeavors.

Nice metal detector Good tandem Love bless

The Manticore looks like a good machine. That last ring you found might be homemade from a stainless steel nut it is real cool.

Jajaja….Chest press for the rats! Jajaja the coolest find Christine… Greetings from México…

I love it when you pick on Bill,Iam making myself a bet on who can find a ring first with the manicore detector,come on Christine find one first, just kidding Bill, but I wanna see who can find a ring first

Bill and Christine, Congrats on getting the Beast! I got mine on Fri 13. LOL

Wow! You didn’t say you were going to get a manticore….you kind of mentioned that you’d more than likely get the Nox 900 for your style of hunting…..so many are still waiting for this machine! Best of luck to you with this state of the art detector! That park you hunted produced hundreds of quarters for my Dad and I. I only went back a few times…but I see you’re digging a lot more conductors than I wanted to, and you’re pulling the rings.

Hi Christine and Bill, That was interesting seeing the different 3D images on the Minelab Manticore I think that is going to be very useful as you test this detector. Christine did well finding targets considering it was new to her also, unfortunately the beach has a lot of trash dredged in to the sand. The best part was finding three rings on the first day using the Minelab Manticore great job by both of you. Thanks for the video looking forward to the next one with the Minelab Manticore, 💍💍💍

Good morning I love it when you guys are having fun that’s why I love this channel. Thank you guys and thanks for sharing

Nice hunt you two at Seal beach. Another addition to your treasure hunting with the Manticore, looking forward to see you two with that and what you find.

Great three rings find

Great video

Glad to see you both getting out and having some fun in the sun! Great grass hunt too, Bill! Congrats on the rings and thanks for sharing your first go around with the Manticore! 🙂

Wow!! The 2nd 1/2 of your video in the park was awesome!! Thanks for sharing your insight on the Manticore. Keep sharing, have fun!

Love it! Good luck on your future finds!

I'm sure Gary ate the frosting,. Seagulls will grab anything when you are not looking 🐤

Sweet!! Looks like a lovely day!

Awesome video guys, thank you

⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐Congratulations on your new Manticore! ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ I'm still waiting for Minelab to satisfy preexisting orders. I've included some notes that I've collected. Use at your own discretion. To utilize the Target Trace to it's full potential, rotate 90 degrees on targets of interest. Gold TID values, Mode, Audio theme, and Metal from Surfside Dan.

Notch out if you don't want to be bothered digging silver, copper, etc. Test the TID of your gold ring collection. Ferrous limits, up to you, test nails, bobby pins, etc. On soil, I've noticed that a TID with a spread of 4 or more, probably ferrous, trash and/or commingled artifacts.

Congratulations on the New Detector. I need the 2 feet of snow to melt so I can get out and Detect. Happy Detecting 🙃🙃🙃

Well done both of you! Keep on detecting 💗💗💗⭐️⭐️⭐️😊

Looks Like you two had a fun time with the New Detector. Score on the rings. That park is giving you a good run for the Manticore. Lots of targets. I find on the off season Beaches are harder to find the goods but the trash seems to come out more.. Thanks for taking us along..Peace

Hello Bill and Christine

Nice hunt, you always make it exciting

The first ring looks like an old mood ring that's not in the mood anymore or an Opel faux ring. The second ring looks like a Lord of the Rings Elvish Love poem Ring in Elf writing, "One ring to show our love, One ring to bind us, One ring to seal our love, And forever to entwine us." I tried to copy-paste Elf's writing but the computer did not understand it. Found it on the "Jens Hansen" the ring maker, site.

Great video 👍✌️

Rings! Including the "One" ring! Manticore looks like a pretty good machine so far, looking forward to seeing more of it and what you think.

Nice finds

Looks like a good new machine. Always love your posts!

You found the one ring to rule them all.

Congrats on the new detector! Excited to see how it performs for you guys!

Ha ha ha, my Mom tried to put a square peg in a round hole the other day. She said that she can’t get it to go together. I had to point it out to her and then we both laughed.

I’m jelly. Need to get me one of those! The manticore will probably work great for finding the deep old coins and relics.

Awesome machine Glad your trying it out Will you be comparing it to other machines . Bill is it possible to purchase a beanie like the one your wearing . Ty for sharing the video enjoyed

Dig the ones on the center line. I used beach general it seemed really sensitive. Very small targets small earrings and jewelry. Good luck.

It seems to me that the numbers that are coming up for the targets on the Manticore, are double the number value of the Equinox numbers, more or less. You can pretty much guess the target that way if you’ve used or use the Equinox models. Happy Hunts. _/ 👍

Burr... I was up in SoCal abt 6mo ago.. I didn't realize it did get a bit cold there..... I miss it there..

Christie will not be happy😅😅😅

Thanks.

The manticore is a great machine I took mine to Newport for it's first hunt

seems like a nox with different numbers and irritating sounds. like the stronger looking coil ears tho. Minelab should do a recall on all equinox 11" coils😀

You two are so funny y’all should start a comedy show on metal detecting lmfao

Good morning, y’all. So why weren’t you detecting the wet this morning?

Seal Beach Has to be one of the Most searched in the world, But the MANTICORE Metal Detector was Impressive.... IMO... If you Care to why not tell us about your day Jobs IF YOU CARE TOO...... My reason for asking Retired Military been out to the area Many times.....Looks like where I stayed at the Huntington Beach Hilton....

You guys forgot to tell me you were going to SB. I live about 5 minutes from there.

Wow Christine that California cold must be rough! What was it 80°? Lol

It must be really cold ❄️

Hope you all have a great ♥ day.

Has anyone noticed Garrett has changed the tone on the Carrot. More like a vibrating noise then the beeping.

The beach that I have been detecting has been stripped of its sand and most of the targets. Two of us detected for 3 hours and found only 2 bottle caps. Has this beach been totally destroyed ? will good target come back with the sand?

Hey Bill and Christine, what do you both think about the weight balance of the Manticore? How does it compare to the other Minelab detectors that you have? Thanks.

Oh Christine you look sooo cold!!.... I saw Bigfoot at minute 7:30 (compare to the classic 1967 Patterson-Gimlin image of Bigfoot).... ..He doesn't take you fishing because you almost gave him tetanus last year remember "Hey Bill reach your bare hand into this scoop full of rusty fishing lures"!!! hahaha.....at 14:26 Gary's brother from another mother-cute......"Somebody's a dime dropper" great! ahhahahahaha...Bill the 2D image feature is cool!. I noticed the pull tab and at least one ring showed 2D squishy line, as opposed to say the solid circle for a quarter. Do you think that is because of the orientation of the ring in the soil- laying vertically vs. horizontally?...thanks for cleaning up the parks!

Bill..that ring has lord of the rings etching on it..

👍

I've found illegal homemade gillnets with homemade weights along the bottom of the net like that.

looks like one of the lord of the ring ring replicas ;)

Are you going to go to a rally? Chain mail! Roman!

Do you have some canned slaw

How much did you buy it?

I herd u never bin fishing before I can teach u how 2

I am the one who has the ring for her and it was still would be from her

First, maybe. Up o dark thirty thinking ‘ hey you guys on are on today, I’m going to wait till you get on so I can be first’. I may need a life.

💞👍

I would like to see y'all melt the aluminum in your own coins

Che impressione avete su manticore ? Secondo me non va tanto bene

That’s OK bills got wisdom and you’re learning laughing out loud

Cupcakes $

RATS! 😂

Is she his girlfriend

you wasted your money buying that almost all of your targets are within 5 inches of the surface even when you go to parks you did not need that
