Will the Relic also do coins? I like the higher frequency it operates on. Feedback appreciated
Thanks Bill

NOKTA RELIC FOR COINS ???

As the name says it's Maureen towards relics but I've had no problems at all using it for all types of treasure hunting. As far as Coin & Jewelry hunting like at parks I would definitely turn the sensitivity down it is a very powerful machine.
Matter of fact, I just finished talking with the owner of the double lot I have been hunting and he described the layout of how it was at the first tear-down back in '09 before I moved here. It's very sunny and comfortable. High is headed to 63° today, so I changed my plans of doing some work around home and came back to load my CoRe and Relic and head back down to the lot. A lot of trash, and a section of it is very littered with iron debris, so I am taking my two most favorite models for cleaning up in target-masking environments.
In the more confined and trashier places I work the Relic w/5" DD in 3-Tone mode. Over in the more open areas with marginal trash amounts I use the other Relic w/5X9½ DD usually in 2-Tone when iron trash is mainly nails or fairly well spaced. My Relic, from when I first got it in my hands as a prototype twenty-six months ago, has been a very reliable Coin Hunting detector. It's a terrific multi-purpose detector for my Relic Hunting sites and Coin hunting sites.

St Bernard, what did you end up choosing?

The Relic was my favourite Fors unit for coins, but the Impact came out and stole the limelight a little.
It definitely hits hard, and you can run pretty tame settings and still get very good depth.
I still love the feel of the Fors units, having swung a Minelab SD, GP and GPX for a good chunk of my detecting life, there is just something about a "joystick" handle and 95% of all the weight under your armrest - it just balances real nice. But it's been so wet here lately, if I'm brave enough to head out it's nice having the Kruzer on hand to go for a quick hunt somewhere, and not have to worry about the detector.

The Relic machine does very well in iron infested sites and finding coins
