Newbie to XP Deus but impressed with results

Hello XP Deus users-

I bought the XP Deus in January of this year but did not use it till 3 months ago; I primarily use the Equinox 800 which I have done well ha bud recovered my first gold coin 1852 Liberty Head and Confederate Georgia frame plate-both recovered this past spring.The last several months however, I have been noticing Deus users finding more quality items on a more consistent basis than I was with my Nox 800.

The 3 hunts I recovered my second breast plate, and numerous bullets and buttons that have been missed in a heavily hunted area. One observation is that the Deus is killer on buttons. I recovered 10 buttons, 7 flat buttons, a button back and a General Service Eagle coat and a NY Staff coat. I found more buttons (10) on one hunt last Saturday than I did all last year with my Nox 800. Would I have recovered the same items had I been using my Nox 800? maybe-maybe not. I use the small round high frequency coil, and this thing is spot on in sniffing out buttons. I dig everything above 40 and have been very happy with only my 5th outing with this machine.

I still haven’t learned every single nuance yet but do love the light weight swinging compared to my 10 pound Nox 800 which seems like 10 pounds compared to the Deus. My question, I live in Alexandria VA and primarily hunt in Virginia for civil war relics, is there a civil war relic hunting program that someone can recommend? I am using Deus fast currently. Thanks and happy hunting.

Great write up Wayne, thanks for sharing.
Looking forward to hearing about your future hunts.

Yep, pull up Calabash's "relic" program video which uses the pitch kfz at 28 and 54 on the round HF coin. I've never found a deeper seeking program. Not much good in trashy sites but last year was hunting old park that had been a CSA camp site and found a very deep and rare CSA whitworth bulllet and a few more relics in one of the cleaner areas. Nice finds and good luck. PT
 
28 and 54 khz on a hf coil , and you’ve never seen a deeper programme ?
Them frequencies and coil should get nowhere near the depth of even a standard Lf coil
