Minelab X-Terra Pro overview

If your work is hobbyists hunting parks, beaches and old settlement sites, the X-Terra Pro from Minelab is worth a look. On paper that means a detection depth of 4 feet and selectable multi-frequency operation.

The features that actually get used are pro-switch technology, fully waterproof (ip68) and full audio control — the rest is nice to have but these are why coin and relic hunters pick it up again.

It's one of the more requested models in this range.
