1236x2 magic trick

Post by blackflag »

I got a used 1236x2 because my friend Kieth Southern told me that it would get the good stuff out of the thickest iron. He also said it would pull silver out of beat sites. Well he’s always shot me straight. I dug this 1795 5 francs and a modern dollar coin . I’ve been all over these coins with the manticore with 11” and M8 coils, and a few other machines. It was dug in a small front yard in the thickest of nails. Fisher 1236x pulled these coins and a couple other modern coins out of extremely thick iron with 8” coil like a magic trick. Thanks for looking. Thanks Kieth Southern

Good job!
I had a 1236 and a 1266 back in the day. I dug many deep coins with them.
I wish I would have kept them.

It is always interesting how different detectors and/or coil combinations "see" targets in their own often unique way. That's some good detecting there Sir.

1236X 2 is very good at sniffing out high conductors in the iron infested spots, I have had a couple of them and I would like to get a hold of another one, they make a nice sweet tone over deep silver.
