i found my 340 on craigslist. for $60. found a used v12 coil on ebay. its a lot of fun. hunt in all metal mode. its pretty accurate as far knowing if its junk. have a good day
I got mine new on a damaged box deal for 170 right after they came out. AMAZING detector! I haven`t yet mastered the all metal mode here in Louisiana because it constantly beeps on the low numbers due to minerals but WOW are the other modes incredible for coins, jewelry, and very small targets. One of my first signals was a 29 but a huge rusty 6 inch nail popped out. I checked the hole and sure enough there WAS a quarter! No other machine I`ve ever used could do that. I found over 30 modern coins in my extremely trashy yard in two short hunts. My nephew won`t go detecting with me...he`s just so busy....gaming. I have three detectors but nobody has ever wanted to detect with me. Thanks to Biden I can`t afford to use a car on Social Security so I`m permanently stuck at home in the boondocks. So I guess I should find a kid that can use my detectors. I wish I lived near a beach. I`d get an electric bike and go every day.
I think that is what I paid for the 340 also. Not sure why in all metal it does what it did to you. I will check out this one in all metal. I know my 540 with the 12inch coil false out on the beach ..1 2 1 2 1 2 every swinging. and that is not all metal. in jewelry mode Thanks for stopping in.. Happy Hunting . Peace
I love the Vanquish Detectors. have not let me down. I use this one and keep it in my car for a quick scan or short hunts. Fun to play around with.. Thanks for watching. Peace
Thanks For Stopping in.. Yes The Vanquish is a really good detector for the price. Nothing Wrong with silvers and wheat cents found with it.. Happy Hunting. Peace
Right this little detector is pretty good for the money. if I had grounds with more then a few pennies it would nail all the coins. Thanks for watching.. Peace
Yes it is a good detector. Just got to have a slower swing. But I feel also that other detector would have picked these targets up as well. But the price for this simple detector you will get the Job done. Thanks for commenting and watching.. Peace
If I was to do a ring recovery for someone, I would use the Vanquish. One I know it pretty good and two when it hits on a ring it tells you Bam it is under the coil. In fact I found a gold tooth for someone who lost it using the 540 with the 8inch coil on it. Thanks for watching. .Happy Hunting . Peace
Yes friend you are right there, I have the minelab vanquish 440 I I love it I've had a couple of detecters and got to say the vanquish is a very good metal detector and once you know what it's all telling you there is no words to say, and for the money there's not much what comes to close.. So happy hunting all.
For a Short hunt on grounds that have been hammered on I got a little more from it. Hoping I can score a silver or two that I missed over the yrs.. Thanks for watching.. Peace
I did not like the 12 inch coil on the beach or on land.. I use the 8inch coil all the time on the 540. not sure if I have a bad 12inch coil as when I swing on the beach it would constantly ring 1 to 2 vdi .. So on the 540 I use also pretty much keep in Jewelry mode some people will leave it in all metal. Hope this helps.. and thank you for stopping by.. Good Luck on your Search for treasure.. Happy Hunting.. Peace
Eye Eye Captain .. Yes I do have the 540 as well. I bought both of them at the same time and I really enjoy the 540 with the 8inch coil on it.. it has treated me very good.. Thank You for stopping by.. Happy Hunting.
