The three modes (all metal and disc 1 and disc 2) work great and switch with a mere touch of one button with your thumb. YOu never have to use two hands, all the switching you wish to do can be done with one hand. The 5x8 coil is the best for coins and small items, much better than the larger coil that comes with the AT pro. The reason I went with the Gold and not the Pro is the cost of the coil, if you figure in the cost of the added 5x8 coil, the Gold is a better buy! The large coil on the Pro is not as good in reviews as the 5x8 coil so that is the reasoning for going with this Gold and the circuitry is better on the gold also, the only drawback is that it can not be used in salt water...you can use it on the ocean sand beach just not in the salt water. I have already had my Gold wet as I was hunting in the rain. Works great. Very lightweight, very small, love it. I might add that this detector has controls that are easily understood if you watch the DVD that comes with the detector, the controls are easier to understand than my old CZ-5 detector (Fisher). This is the first detector I have owned that has depth display, and the first with "notch discrimination", as it has 3 different modes of operation 1. all metal 2. discrim one and 3. discrim two. The discrim two has the notch discrimination. You can also dial up the iron discrimination from 1 to 40. Review: This is NOT a beginner's unit. - It works as advertised. It's a great unit. I must stress it's NOT a "beginner's unit". ## Features - HIGH-FREQUENCY PRECISION: Operates at 18 kHz for enhanced detection of small gold nuggets, jewelry, coins, and relics. - TRUE ALL METAL MODE: Provides the greatest depth and sensitivity for all metal types, ideal for prospecting. - GROUND BALANCE WINDOW: Manual and automatic ground balance with exclusive Ground Balance Window to handle varying soil conditions. - IRON AUDIO FEATURE: Audibly identifies iron targets to avoid digging unwanted items. - FULLY WATERPROOF: Submersible up to 10 feet, perfect for detecting in rivers, lakes, and wet environments. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B01FGMWF3Q | | Best Sellers Rank | #98,077 in Patio, Lawn & Garden ( See Top 100 in Patio, Lawn & Garden ) #116 in Metal Detectors | | Brand | Garrett Metal Detectors | | Brand Name | Garrett Metal Detectors | | Color | Gold | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 out of 5 stars 201 Reviews | | Display Type | LCD | | Extended Length | 51 inches | | International Protection Rating | IP541 | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 22"L x 14"W x 6"H | | Item Weight | 14.08 ounces | | Manufacturer | Garrett Metal Detectors | | Manufacturer Part Number | 1140680 | | Material | Metal | | Material Type | Metal | | Model Number | 1140680 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of Programs | 3 | | Operating Frequency | 18 KHz | | Power Source | Air Powered | | Product Dimensions | 22"L x 14"W x 6"H | | Recommended Uses For Product | Metal Detection | | UPC | 786156004085 786156004023 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Garrett Metal Detectors - **Color:** Gold - **Item Weight:** 14.08 ounces - **Material:** Metal - **Power Source:** Air Powered ## Images ![Garrett AT Gold Metal Detector, Waterproof, Made in USA - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81Q7UK0ws6L.jpg) ![Garrett AT Gold Metal Detector, Waterproof, Made in USA - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71FMPoKW7XL.jpg) ![Garrett AT Gold Metal Detector, Waterproof, Made in USA - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81qAiq1400L.jpg) ![Garrett AT Gold Metal Detector, Waterproof, Made in USA - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/812xLAYzcNL.jpg) ![Garrett AT Gold Metal Detector, Waterproof, Made in USA - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71kQ7hJ+wwL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: Could it be use underwater without earphones?** A: Yes. There is an external speaker that works underwater but you can hear the sound better with the garrett underwater headphones that are sold separately. **Q: What makes the Pro salt water friendly and the Gold not...?** A: The higher frequency of the AT Gold increases its sensitivity to smaller objects. Because of this , it does not perform as well in wet salt mineralization. **Q: Can i put the bigger head of the at pro on this (gold model) and then use it for salt water?** A: No, the coil is not what allows the device to go in salt water. The bigger coil from the pro does work but it does not allow the at gold to read in salt water accurately. **Q: Is this gold detector or just a metal detector?** A: The Garrett AT Gold is a versatile metal detector that is optimized for gold nugget and relic hunting and works on all types of metals including coins and jewelry. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Really nice metal detector *by O***8 on October 8, 2013* This is without a doubt the best metal detector I have ever owned and I owned my first one in 1971.

YOu never have to use two hands, all the switching you wish to do can be done with one hand.

It's a great unit. I must stress it's NOT a "beginner's unit". ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Buy this machine unless you want to use in ocean. *by F***M on April 26, 2016* I did a lot of research on these machines and read a lot of user reviews before I bought mine last month. I have used several metal detectors over the years, but never owned one myself and I would consider myself a novice detector. As such, I wanted a machine with an easy learning curve, but all the bells and whistles of a professional machine. I settled on the AT Gold because I live too far from the ocean to need a salt water machine and I am more likely to take my machine into the California foothills and nugget hunt. It has a small coil on it, but so far I have had no problems finding deep coins at the park. I love that the machine is waterproof up to 10 feet. The stock headphones however are not waterproof, FYI - those cost about $100. Pros: Reasonable cost. Digital screen. Four frequencies. Iron Audio - super helpful in trashy areas! Coils are interchangeable and can be upgraded. Battery life- about 25 hours on 4 AA batteries. Has an optional automatic ground balance, helpful for beginners. Two year manufacturers warranty. Lightweight and collapsible frame. Cons: Cant be used in Saltwater. Coil cover not included. Storage bag not included. Tips: Invest in a good handheld pinpoint detector such as a Garret carrot or Land or Sea, it will speed your recovery time and make your experience much more enjoyable. ## Frequently Bought Together - Garrett A.T.
