just been out for an hour with my new machine and have to say impressed with it. there seems to be a slight wobble on the stem and also the control housing slides slightly but apart from that the depth of this is amazing comparing it to my old 500 after half an hour digging all signals i was confident in what it was telling me was true ended up with a few coins one silver one ,a buckle and a spent bullet god knows where that come from. beleive me when i tell you that was my most successfull day regarding the amount of coins i found i did notice also i was digging the coins at least 10 inches down dont think the 500 would have picked them up anyway heres the pic for you going to clean them up in olive oil now

Great stuff Paul. Let us know what the coins are once you get them cleaned up.

I too had the GTA 500 for a number of years, and when I first tried my new 1500......wow! Much more sensitivity and depth. The imaging took me a while to learn before I knew understood how it worked and it's limitation, but once I overcame that, my finds went through the roof!

Hey for your first time out you done good. It will get better each time you get out there and learn what that 1500 is telling you.

hi john know what you mean with the imaging i noticed that if it was over 5 inches i took no notice of the imaging as sometimes it showed a can when in fact it was a coin but upto 4 inches it was accurate.cant wait to use this at our next rally see how it compares to the minelab exII i think its better myself.
