Nokta Makro Pulse Dive small metal detector results, anyone?

[Bubblesong]

Will the Nokta Makro pulse dive detect more than iron, such as gold jewelry or coins in shallow salt water? I cannot wrangle the larger detectors, so I am hoping to get started with this smaller more manageable option for treasure hunting.

All metal pulse induction, I really like mine but mostly use it as a pinpointer with the minelab excalalibur

Let's see if we can get @calabash digger to chime in.

So question about the Nokta Makro Pulse Dive: I just got mine, and I have a question about putting it together. The photo shows the silicon ring, but I can’t twist and close with silicon ring in place, only if I remove it, so I am wondering if it is not necessary for waterproofing.

You need the ring to form a seal, it's stiff so use the cover with the pointer attachment and when using the coil don't attach by holding the coil on the front you'll break it, hold it close to the unit. Use a little grease.

Is it better to get the 2 n 1 with the 4" coil or stick with 8" coil without the pointer attachment ? Same price on Amazon.

I bought the 2 in 1 as I needed a pointer and it's a nice stand alone metal detector with the coil attacked. The pointer and coil can't be changed in the water . Do you have use for a pointer with another detector?

Not really. Just looking for something inexpensive to have for the random dive when I want to look around for stuff.

I wouldn't bother with the 2 in 1 so. The 8in coil will give you twice the cover speed.
