## Description

p The Gold Bug reg; family has revolutionized gold prospecting with new prospecting tools, Target-ID, incredible depth and all at an affordable price! Its fast retune speed and biaxial Searchcoils create superb target separation with impressive depth. V-Break trade;, the industry rsquo;s first Variable Breakpoint tone discrimination system, allows user control of the multi-tone Audio ID system. This feature helps distinguish iron targets with a distinctive low audio tone while non-ferrite targets like gold, induce high tones. Tone discrimination combines with a dead-accurate Visual ID system to give gold prospectors a vital new tool in finding gold without having to dig any iron targets. An expanded 40-Point Iron ID target range helps differentiate between larger iron objects and smaller nails and pieces. The way it minimizes the masking effects of ferrous targets near non-ferrous targets is simply amazing! Two more unique features are the real-time display of the Ground Phase value and an Fe3O4 meter that indicates the amount of mineralization present. These features monitor changes in soil conditions to locate and trace black sand concentrations where gold is commonly found. The Ground Balance system handles the toughest of ground conditions, capable of balancing all the way to salt. No longer do you need a specialized detector for prospecting and another for coins and relics; the Gold Bug excels at both! /p p nbsp; /p p Features: /p ul li Discrimination Mode for coins and relics /li li Motion All Metal Mode /li li No-motion Pinpoint with Depth Indicator /li li Computerized GROUND GRAB reg; /li li Continuous Ground Condition Readout /li li Continuous Ground Phase and Mineralization Readout /li li V-Break trade;, Industry rsquo;s first Variable Tone Breakpoint Discrimination /li li Threshold and Gain Adjustments /li li Signal Strength Indicator /li li Target-ID and 2-Tone Audio that includes V.C.O /li li 1/4 rdquo; (6.3 mm) and 1/8 rdquo; (3.2 mm) headphone Jacks /li li Uses one 9V Alkaline battery /li li Standard with 5 rdquo; (13 cm) DD Round Closed Waterproof Searchcoil (Gold Bug and Pro only) /li li 19 kHz Operating Frequency /li li Weight: 2.5 lbs.

**Q: How well does this work on the beach for fine gold chains and jewelry compared to the ace 400 & at pro?**
A: It works OK until you get to wet sand if in a saltwater area.  Once there, it gets wonky and very hard to get a real reading.  IMO, this is for jewelry in parks or gold prospecting the mountains...  I have found jewelry, coins and random items at the beach.  I will be getting an Equinox 600 for my next one.

*by V***N on 10 January 2016*

Still just a beginner I like to coin hunt at local parks in the play areas where the swing sets and slides are. The Gold Bug is an awesome coin shooter. Just set the detector to "all metal mode" and set the discrimination to 70 and it will reject almost all trash and only detect coins. I am still learning how to detect other items but coins are so easy. I stopped at a local park on the way to work this morning using the machine for the second time and in just over 1 hour this is my total haul = 14 dimes and 30 pennies, a tiny pin, a machine screw and a small piece of hardware. I also have a Garrett Pro Pinpointer that helped with quick recovery. After shooting 44 coins in 75 minutes as a noob I highly recommend the Gold Bug. While it is downplayed for finding coins I find the opposite to be true and here is the proof.
